 3This directory contains tooling for automated terminal UI screenshot generation using [VHS](https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs), a terminal recording and screenshot tool.

 5## Architecture
 6
 7Screenshots are generated through a two-layer system:
 8
 91. **Go helper programs** (`cmd/`) that render realistic mock UI views using real Matcha components with fake data
102. **VHS tape scripts** (`.tape` files) that launch these programs and capture terminal output as images
11
12This pipeline runs in CI via the `.github/workflows/screenshots.yml` workflow to keep documentation screenshots up-to-date automatically.
