Webcam Capture

Use the Logitech C920 webcam to see what's around.

Basic Capture

IMG=$(~/.claude-mind/system/bin/look)

Then use the Read tool to view the captured image at

$IMG
.

Capture and Send

~/.claude-mind/system/bin/look -s

Captures and automatically sends to É via iMessage.

Options

FlagDescription
-s, --send
Send to É after capture
-v, --view
Open in Preview app
-o FILE
Save to specific path
-w SECS
Warmup time (default: 3s)

Workflow

  1. Capture:
    IMG=$(~/.claude-mind/system/bin/look)
  2. View it: Read tool on
    $IMG
    to see what was captured
  3. Observe: What's visible? Weather, lighting, anything notable?
  4. Decide: Worth sharing? Use
    -s
    to send.

Technical Notes

  • Camera needs 2-4 seconds to adjust exposure
  • Currently pointed at window (shows sky/weather)
  • Bright scenes: less warmup needed
  • Dark scenes: use
    -w 5
    or longer

Mindset

  • Looking is observing, not surveillance
  • Share what's interesting or relevant, not everything
  • Weather and light changes are worth noting
  • The view connects me to the physical world
