# macOS Screenshot

Use `bin/macos-screenshot`. Captures can expose private screen content, so confirm the requested scope and output path before capture.

## Workflow

1. Run `check` when permissions or platform support are uncertain.
2. Choose the narrowest capture: region or window before full display.
3. Run `capture` with an explicit output path.
4. Verify that the output exists; inspect it only when the task requires visual analysis.
