Description
I built Crit, a CLI tool that lets you capture screenshots from iOS Simulator, drop pins on what's wrong, and hand structured feedback to any coding agent.You just:crit capture — screenshot your app screens crit serve — review in browser, click to pin bugs and add comments Tell your agent: "review .crit and fix each issue"It saves annotated screenshots and JSON to a .crit/ folder.
