IDE attachments—Frames into your editor's attachment folder.

What it does

Write the extracted frames into the editor-specific attachment directory so they can be referenced directly from a chat prompt inside the IDE. No uploads, no clipboard juggling, just images in the right folder.

When to reach for it

• Drop a video into Cursor, have the frames ready in `@` attachments a moment later
• Keep VS Code / GitHub Copilot chat video-aware via the attachments path
• Work offline — no cloud, no webhook, just files next to the IDE

Install

npm i -g peepshow

Use it

peepshow ./demo.mp4 --sink ide --sink-arg editor=cursor

Make it automatic

Register the sink once — every run fires it afterward. Scope by--whenso it only runs for matching videos.

peepshow sinks add ide
peepshow sinks add ide --when extension=mp4,mov
peepshow sinks add ide --when path=/Volumes/Work/

Configuration

• PEEPSHOW_IDE_EDITOR`cursor` · `windsurf` · `zed` · `vscode`. Default autodetect.
• PEEPSHOW_IDE_WORKSPACEOverride the detected workspace root.

Write your own

A sink is any executable that reads the--emit jsonpayload on stdin. Shell, Node, Python, Go — the spec's indocs/PLUGINS.md. Register persistent ones withpeepshow sinks add-cmd 'your-command'.
