Just thought I'd share a little utility I wrote that I have found a lot of uses for. I have been using this the most with Claude Code because Claude Code takes the image file path to use the picture.

I have also found success setting `SNAPSHOT_DIR` to a directory in your repo and you can then use this along with ai tools in your editor!

But it doesn't even have to be used with ai. It's just a useful tool for taking a picture and having the file path immediately accessible.

Some of the most useful use cases:

- take image of whiteboard diagram and ask Claude Code to generate a chart in something like mermaid

- making todo lists from handwritten notes

- generating juice recipes from a picture of all the fruit on my counter

- take picture of notes to digitize

- language translation

- plant and insect lookup

- getting estimated macros from a picture of food

Would be useful to make this more cross platform. It only supports MacOS for now! And it's not extremely portable. Requires some deps to be installed. It's all in the README though.
