Website Screenshot

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Take screenshots of any website URL and save them as image files.

Requirements

  • Orthogonal CLI: npm install -g @orth/cli

Workflow

Take a screenshot of a URL in 4 steps:

Step 1: Start a browser session

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/start","body":{"headless":true}}'

Save the session_id from the response.

Step 2: Navigate to the URL

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/{session_id}/page/execute","body":{"type":"goto","url":"https://example.com"}}'

Step 3: Take the screenshot

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/{session_id}/page/screenshot","body":{}}'

For a full-page screenshot:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/{session_id}/page/screenshot","body":{"full_page":true}}'

Step 4: Stop the session

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/{session_id}/stop"}'

Full Example

# 1. Start session
SESSION=$(curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/start","body":{"headless":true}}' | python3 -c "import json,sys;d=json.load(sys.stdin);print(json.dumps(d.get('data',d)))" | python3 -c "import sys,json; print(json.load(sys.stdin)['session_id'])")

# 2. Navigate
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/$SESSION/page/execute","body":{"type":"goto","url":"https://example.com"}}'

# 3. Screenshot
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/$SESSION/page/screenshot","body":{}}'

# 4. Cleanup
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"notte","path":"/sessions/$SESSION/stop"}'

Options

| Parameter | Description |

|-----------|-------------|

| full_page | Set to true to capture the entire scrollable page |

| headless | Set to false to see the browser window (default: true) |

| viewport_width | Custom viewport width in pixels |

| viewport_height | Custom viewport height in pixels |

Tips

  • Always stop the session when done to free resources
  • Sessions auto-expire after 3 minutes of idle time
  • Use -o flag to save the screenshot to a file (required for binary data)
  • The output file must not already exist (use a unique name or delete first)

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take gooseworks-ai/website-screenshot-notte from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npm, npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
