AI product Open source
Skill Recorder is a Microsoft desktop application that records a work session—including screen activity, application and window switches, browser pages, clipboard previews, and optional spoken narration—and uses the GitHub Copilot CLI to reconstruct the session as an overall intent and ordered steps. Users can review and edit the analysis, then generate either a reusable SKILL.md procedure for an AI agent or an Automation that runs on a schedule or trigger. Generated procedures prefer an agent’s native tools, such as the gh CLI or web_fetch, over replaying interface clicks and can generalize from the recorded example.
Recording, frame extraction, local storage, and optional narration transcription occur on the computer; choosing Analyze sends the event timeline, extracted screen images, and narration text to GitHub’s cloud for Copilot processing. Narration is transcribed on-device using a Whisper model. The application is distributed as a source release that downloads a pinned Node.js runtime and builds the release locally without a global installation. macOS is the primary target, with Windows 11 support for x64 and ARM64 and Ubuntu installation instructions. A GitHub account with Copilot access is required.
1 use taken from transcripts — each links to the moment in the video.
Records a work session and turns it into a reusable procedure for an AI agent by capturing clicks, window switches, visited pages, and optional narration. The result can be reviewed and exported as a skill.md file or scheduled automation.
