## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Scope

This skill:

✅ Generates camera capture commands
✅ Guides integration with security systems
✅ Provides troubleshooting for camera issues

User-driven model:

User provides camera credentials (RTSP URLs, passwords)
User runs capture commands
User installs required tools

This skill does NOT:

❌ Store camera credentials
❌ Run captures automatically without user request
❌ Access cameras without user-provided access info

### Requirements

Required:

ffmpeg — for capture and recording

Optional (user installs if needed):

gphoto2 — for DSLR/mirrorless control
v4l2-ctl — for USB cameras on Linux

### Quick Reference

TopicFileSecurity camera integrationsecurity-integration.mdUSB/webcam capturecapture.mdDSLR controlphotography-control.mdVideo processingprocessing.md

### 1. User Provides Camera Access

When user requests capture:

User: "Snapshot from my front door camera"
Agent: "I need the RTSP URL. Format: rtsp://user:pass@ip/stream
        Provide it or set CAMERA_FRONT_URL in env."
User: "rtsp://admin:pass@192.168.1.50/stream1"
→ Agent generates: ffmpeg -i "URL" -frames:v 1 snapshot.jpg

### 2. Common Commands

# Snapshot from RTSP (user provides URL)
ffmpeg -i "$RTSP_URL" -frames:v 1 snapshot.jpg

# Record 10s clip
ffmpeg -i "$RTSP_URL" -t 10 -c copy clip.mp4

# Webcam snapshot (macOS)
ffmpeg -f avfoundation -i "0" -frames:v 1 webcam.jpg

# Webcam snapshot (Linux)
ffmpeg -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -frames:v 1 webcam.jpg

### 3. Protocol Reference

ProtocolUse CaseURL FormatRTSPIP camerasrtsp://user:pass@ip:554/streamHTTPSimple camshttp://ip/snapshot.jpgV4L2USB cameras/dev/video0

### 4. Integration Patterns

With Home Assistant:

GET /api/camera_proxy/camera.front_door

User provides HA URL and token.

With Frigate:

MQTT: frigate/events for alerts
HTTP: /api/events/{id}/snapshot.jpg

### 5. Security

Never log camera URLs with credentials
Recommend user stores URLs in env vars
RTSP streams may be unencrypted — warn about LAN security
