ProofShot captures screenshots of running applications and feeds them back to AI coding agents as visual context. Instead of agents blindly writing UI code, they can now see what they built and iterate. Works with browser-based apps and integrates with popular AI coding tools.

RisingWave's agent-skills package injects streaming SQL expertise into 18 AI coding assistants (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, and more) via the agentskills.io open spec. It ships two skill modules: core RisingWave connectivity and 14 best-practice rules covering CDC ingestion, materialized view patterns, time-windowed aggregations, and common pitfalls. Install via npm CLI which auto-detects which agents you have installed. Apache 2.0 licensed.
Reviewer scorecard
“As someone who has watched AI agents confidently ship broken layouts, this is a godsend. The visual feedback loop means agents can actually catch that the button is overlapping the nav bar. Design quality from AI coding just leveled up.”
“Not really in my wheelhouse — streaming SQL and data pipelines are developer infrastructure. But the 'teach your AI assistant the local dialect' concept is one I'd love to see applied to design systems, component libraries, and brand guidelines. Someone should build this for Figma.”
“Clean integration — just point it at your dev server and it handles screenshot capture and context injection. The token cost of sending screenshots is non-trivial though, so you want to be selective about when you trigger it. Works best as a verification step, not continuous monitoring.”
“AI coding assistants hallucinate streaming SQL constantly — CDC ingestion patterns, windowed aggregations, and materialized view semantics are all places where generic training data fails hard. An installable skill package that auto-detects your agents and patches in correct context is exactly the right fix. Worth adding if you're building on RisingWave.”
“Vision models still struggle with subtle layout issues — off-by-one pixel gaps, wrong font weights, slightly misaligned elements. ProofShot catches the obvious breaks but do not expect pixel-perfect QA. You still need human eyes for production UI.”
“This only matters if you're already using RisingWave, which is a niche streaming SQL database with a much smaller user base than Postgres or Kafka. Four stars on GitHub suggests the audience is narrow. The agentskills.io spec is interesting as a standard but it's vapor if no one else adopts it.”
“Every database, framework, and specialized API is going to need its own skill package for AI coding agents. RisingWave is just the first mover on an inevitable pattern. The open spec is the actually important thing here — it could become how the entire ecosystem teaches agents about domain-specific tools.”
