# Android Screen

> Screenshots, screen recording, and display info — observe and prove device screen state. Use to capture what is on the display, record a session, or read the current display configuration before any coordinate work.

# Android screen observation

Capture and describe the device display: single frames, recordings, and the
display configuration that every coordinate-based skill relies on.

## When to use

- Seeing what is currently on the device (before/after an action).
- Recording a UI session as evidence.
- Reading resolution/density/orientation before `android-input` or `android-ui`.

## Tools used

- `take_screenshot` — capture the current frame (optionally region-cropped).
- `screen_record` — record a bounded screen session to a file.
- `screen_info` — resolution, density, orientation, rotation, display modes.

## Procedure

1. `screen_info` first when coordinates will be involved.
2. `take_screenshot` to observe current state; store the frame as evidence.
3. For multi-step observation, capture before and after each mutation.
4. `screen_record` only for sessions the human explicitly requested.
5. Never trust a stale frame: re-capture before relying on screen state.

## Security

- Captured frames can contain private content (messages, tokens, photos): keep
  them local, task-scoped, and delete on completion.
- Screen recording is mutative to storage and privacy: `confirm=true`.
