The recorder skill teaches an agent how to start a recording, capture the intended browser behavior, stop and upload it, and verify the result. It works alongside the CLI; it does not replace CLI installation or account authorization.

Install the CLI first

Complete CLI setup, including FFmpeg and browser requirements. Sign in with captures:record if the agent should upload recordings.

Download the skill

Download the Tekma recorder skill archive. Extract it and place the tekma-recorder directory in your agent’s skills directory. Common personal locations are ~/.codex/skills/tekma-recorder and ~/.claude/skills/tekma-recorder. Follow your client’s current skill-loading instructions and reload it after installation. The final directory should contain SKILL.md and its supporting references. Avoid an extra nested directory such as tekma-recorder/tekma-recorder/SKILL.md.

Ask for a recording

For example:
Use the Tekma recorder skill to record a short walkthrough of the example website. Upload it to my authorized workspace, verify that playback works, and return the share link.
For a bug fix, state the behavior the recording should prove. The agent should capture the actual interaction rather than substitute a static screenshot.

Permissions and privacy

The skill does not grant account access. Complete browser authorization yourself when required. It should never require you to paste an access token into a chat. The CLI’s recording limitations still apply, including the absence of element-level video redaction. Use synthetic data for demonstrations and inspect the resulting video.

Update

Install the latest CLI package and replace the skill directory with the current archive, then reload the agent. Keep personal modifications separately so you do not overwrite them accidentally.
