## Summary
Adds `tools/screencap`, a CLI for automated screenshots of the Fleet UI
via headless Chrome (CDP).
- **Built-in full workflow** captures all major pages and their
modals/tabs (dashboard, hosts, queries, policies, software, controls,
settings, account) in one command.
- **Record custom workflows** in a visible browser — clicks, tabs,
radios, checkboxes, and tooltip hovers are recorded automatically and
saved as replayable JSON under `tools/screencap/workflows/`.
- **Auth options** for SSO, email/password, or session cookie; the
Chrome profile is persisted at `~/.fleet/screencap-profile/` so sessions
survive across runs.
- **Output** is written to `screenshots/<timestamp>-<workflow>-<host>/`
as numbered PNGs, with multi-viewport pages split into separate images.
See `tools/screencap/README.md` for full usage.
## Test plan
- [ ] `cd tools/screencap && make build` produces the binary
- [ ] `./screencap -sso https://<fleet-host>` captures the full built-in
workflow
- [ ] `./screencap -record demo https://<fleet-host>` records a workflow
and saves it under `workflows/demo.json`
- [ ] `./screencap -workflow demo https://<fleet-host>` replays the
recorded workflow
- [ ] `./screencap -list` shows saved workflows

workflows, captures full-page and modal screenshots, restores scroll
positions, and supports session persistence and multiple login methods.
* **Chores**
* Added a minimal build/clean workflow for the tool and updated ignore
rules to avoid committing generated screenshots.
* **Documentation / Templates**
* Included example workflow templates demonstrating common navigation
and interaction sequences.
