Description
Vignette is the native MacOS screenshot tool if Apple had continued iterating on it beyond 2010 and made it agent-native. It plugs right into Claude Code and Codex, allowing both to receive screenshots directly and to create and annotate their own and deliver them to you. This opens a very intuitive and effective channel for rapid, visual collaboration. Vignette is simple. It seamlessly swaps with MacOS's native screenshot tool, bringing all the best aspects over and refining the clunky parts.

Could you build this?
Yes A macOS menu bar / screenshot capture utility written in Swift that passes images to local or CLI LLM tools (like Claude Code) via standard APIs or system clipboard/file paths is straightforward to vibe code.
