Show HN: ProofShot – Give AI coding agents eyes to verify the UI they build

ProofShot allows AI coding agents to verify their own UI work using video recordings, error logs, and automated proof artifacts, ensuring code quality before deployment.

Let your AI agent prove its own work with video recording, error logs, and proof artifacts — every time it ships code.

Launches your dev server, opens headless Chromium, and starts recording video.

Your AI agent navigates, clicks, fills forms, and takes screenshots. Every action is logged.

Collects errors, stops recording, trims dead time, and generates your proof artifacts.

Video playback synced with an action timeline, screenshots, and element labels — all in a single standalone HTML file.

Full browser session recording with automatic dead-time trimming. See exactly what the agent did, not the idle waiting.

Captures browser console errors and scans server logs with pattern matching for JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, and more.

A standalone HTML viewer with synchronized video, screenshots, and an interactive action timeline with element labels.

Generates SUMMARY.md and formatted output ready to paste into pull requests. Visual diff comparison against baselines.

Install the CLI, run the setup, and your AI agent can start recording proof.
