framewatch
Screen capture that only fires at moments that mean something

Description
Continuous screen capture floods a coding agent's context with near-duplicate frames. An on-demand screenshot misses everything in between. framewatch sits in the middle: it watches one window and writes a frame only at semantically meaningful moments.
It captures when the window settles after a burst of change, when a spinner starts or stops animating, and on a throttle when a volatile region such as a counter or a log tail updates. Each frame carries timestamped metadata describing why it was taken, so an agent can reconstruct what happened without a frame stream.
Features
- Event-driven capture on settle, on busy-indicator transitions and on throttled volatile regions
- Timestamped metadata alongside every frame so an agent knows why it exists
- Published to crates.io with docs.rs documentation and CI
- Single-binary Rust, no runtime dependencies
