The agenteyes CLI

agenteyes.exe is the AgentEyes engine as a command-line tool - the same engine the tray app uses. Use it to list devices, take screenshots, record audio and video, build a walkthrough, and run import, translate, and subtitle from a script. If you opted agenteyes onto your PATH at install, run it by name from any terminal.

What each command does

• screens - list the monitors and microphones AgentEyes can see, with the index numbers you pass to --screen and the names you pass to --mic.
• shot - take an instant screenshot of a monitor, or a region with --region.
• audio - record microphone audio, system (loopback) audio, or a mix of both, with on-demand screenshots.
• video - record screen video with audio; add --region to capture part of a screen. The mic options tune the audio (turn off denoise, the noise gate, or leveling, and set mic and system volume).
• package - transcribe a recording and assemble the walkthrough write-up. Point it at a recording folder or a bare video file.
• import - bring an outside video into the library and transcribe it. See Import a video.
• translate - translate a recording's transcript into another language, timing preserved. See Multilingual subtitles.
• subtitle - burn a language's captions into a new subtitled video.
• selftest - run the headless end-to-end self-test.

Session hotkeys

While an audio or video session is running, these keys control it:

S = screenshot     P = pause/resume     Q = stop
