+# Claude Code Instructions for openadapt-capture
+
+## Overview
+
+**openadapt-capture** is the data collection component of the OpenAdapt GUI automation ecosystem. It captures platform-agnostic GUI interaction streams (mouse, keyboard, screen) with time-aligned media for training ML models or replaying workflows.
+
+Key responsibilities:
+- Record human demonstrations with mouse, keyboard, and screen capture
+- Time-align all events and media (video, audio)
+- Process raw events into structured actions (clicks, drags, typing)
+- Support privacy scrubbing of sensitive data
+
+**Always use PRs, never push directly to main**
+
+## Quick Commands
+
+```bash
+# Install the package
+uv add openadapt-capture
+
+# Install with audio support (large download)
+uv add "openadapt-capture[audio]"
+
+# Run tests
+uv run pytest tests/ -v
+
+# Record a GUI capture
+uv run python -c "
+from openadapt_capture import Recorder
+with Recorder('./my_capture', task_description='Demo task') as recorder:
+    input('Perform the task, then press Enter to stop recording...')
+"
+
+# Load and analyze a capture
+uv run python -c "
+from openadapt_capture import Capture
+capture = Capture.load('./my_capture')
+for action in capture.actions():
+    print(f'{action.timestamp}: {action.type} at ({action.x}, {action.y})')
+"
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+openadapt_capture/
+  recorder.py      # Recorder context manager for GUI event capture
+  capture.py       # Capture class for loading and iterating events/actions
+  platform/        # Platform-specific implementations (Windows, macOS, Linux)
+  storage/         # Data persistence (SQLite + media files)
+  media/           # Audio/video capture and synchronization
+  visualization/   # Demo GIF and HTML viewer generation
+```
+
+## Key Components
+
+### Recorder
+Main interface for capturing GUI interactions:
+- `__enter__` / `__exit__` - Context manager lifecycle
+- `record_events()` - Main capture loop
+- `event_count` - Total captured events
+
+### Capture
+Load and query recorded captures:
+- `Capture.load(path)` - Load from directory
+- `capture.events()` - Iterator over raw events
+- `capture.actions()` - Iterator over processed actions
+
+### Event Types
+- Raw: `mouse.move`, `mouse.down`, `mouse.up`, `key.down`, `key.up`, `screen.frame`, `audio.chunk`
+- Processed: `click`, `double_click`, `drag`, `scroll`, `type`
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+uv run pytest tests/ -v
+```
