ui-snapshot

ui-snapshot is a skill for Claude Code from vvek475/uiver-plugin. It costs 101 tokens per session (705 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for saving browsable versions of a website's built user interface. Each saved version has a permanent local address and can be compared with other versions side by side.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after changing frontend components, styles, layouts, pages, or themes to save a snapshot, view its local URL, take screenshots, and compare saved versions.
Why use it?
It prevents visual changes from being lost and makes it easier to inspect how the interface changed from one iteration to the next.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT variable.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ui-snapshot scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 62 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

UI Snapshot (uiver)

uiver stores immutable, fully browsable versions of a site's built output in a local content-addressed store (~/.uiver). Each version gets a permanent local URL and appears in a dashboard where the user can compare versions side by side.

Prefer the MCP tools

If the uiver MCP tools are available (ui_snapshot, ui_get_url, ui_list_versions, ui_screenshot, ...), use them instead of the CLI — same capabilities, structured results.

Locating the CLI (fallback)

  1. If command -v uiver succeeds, use uiver.
  2. Otherwise use the copy bundled with this plugin: node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/bin/uiver.js" (this plugin ships the full tool).

After finishing a UI change

  1. Make sure there is built output. If the project builds to dist/, build/, out/, or _site/, and the existing build is stale, run the project's build first. Plain static sites (an index.html at the root) need no build.

  2. Snapshot it:

    uiver snap [dir] \
      --title "<3–6 word label for what changed visually>" \
      --prompt "<the user request or task that produced this change>"
    
    • Omit [dir] to auto-detect dist/, build/, out/, _site/, or an index.html in the current directory.
    • --title should describe the visual change ("hero full-bleed video"), not the code change.
    • Add --pin for milestones the user explicitly wants to keep — pinned versions are never auto-cleaned.
    • If nothing changed since the last snapshot, the command reports "unchanged" and creates nothing. That is fine — do not retry with --force.
  3. Include the printed version id and URL in your completion message so the user can open it.

Other operations

  • uiver list — list stored versions for this project.
  • uiver label [id] "<new title>" [--pin] — retitle (defaults to latest).
  • uiver open — open the comparison dashboard (starts the server if needed).
  • uiver export <id> / uiver import <file>.uiver — share a version across machines as a single portable bundle file.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
