What does it do?

A screen recording contains useful information scattered across repeated frames, spoken feedback, and on-screen text. Video2Context selects visual evidence and packages it so your agent can inspect it without consuming every video frame.

Your recording	What you can ask your agent to do
UI feedback	Identify requested layout, content, or component changes
Bug reproduction	Trace actions, inspect visible errors, and investigate the issue
App walkthrough	Understand screens and behavior before implementation
Screencast of any app or website	Review the actions taken and explain possible mistakes

**Video2Context prepares the evidence. You give the agent the task.** It does not run your agent, edit your code, or decide what you intended to do.
