File contents

Snap-O Network Inspector

Use this skill to pull raw network evidence from Snap-O.

CLI Path

Use the bundled binary:

SNAPO_BIN=/Applications/Snap-O.app/Contents/MacOS/snapo

If Snap-O is not installed at that path, recommend installing it from: https://openai.github.io/snap-o/

Current Command Surface

snapo network list: lists available Snap-O Network Inspector servers.
snapo network requests: emits CDP network events for a server.
snapo network show: shows full details for a request id, including headers and bodies.

Useful global selectors:

-s, --serial: use a specific device serial.
-d: use the single connected USB device.
-e: use the single connected emulator.

Core Flow

List available servers.

"$SNAPO_BIN" network list --json

Use --no-app-info to skip package and app metadata lookup.

Pick a target serial and socket. If multiple devices or sockets are available, select them explicitly.
Pull captured events.

"$SNAPO_BIN" network requests -s <serial> -n <socket_name> --filter '<url-filter>' --no-stream --json

--filter uses the same case-insensitive URL syntax as the Network Inspector search bar. Separate terms must all match, a term prefixed with - is excluded, and quotes or backslashes can escape whitespace.

network requests replaces request Authorization and Cookie values and response Set-Cookie values with [REDACTED].

Inspect one request deeply when full request or response details are required.

"$SNAPO_BIN" network show -s <serial> -n <socket_name> -r <request_id> --json

This output can contain URL query values and request or response bodies.

Re-check command help if output differs.

"$SNAPO_BIN" --help
"$SNAPO_BIN" network --help
"$SNAPO_BIN" network list --help
"$SNAPO_BIN" network requests --help
"$SNAPO_BIN" network show --help

Output Notes

--json emits NDJSON, so process it line by line.
network requests emits Chrome DevTools Protocol-style records with top-level method and params fields.
Use --no-stream for a one-shot buffered snapshot.
The Android transport admits clients with HelloSnapO, returns SnapO.appInfo, and gates delivery with SnapO.startStream and SnapO.stopStream.
