What it does
Turn a video into a triaged Linear issue automatically: title and description from container metadata, frames attached as image uploads, configurable team/project/priority.
When to reach for it
- Bug-report videos from users become actual issues, ready for engineering
- Support team drops screen recordings; agent files and links them into Linear
- Pair with the `--when` router: only file issues for videos from specific paths
Install
npm i -g peepshowUse it
peepshow ./bug.mov --sink linear \
--sink-arg team=ENG \
--sink-arg priority=2Make it automatic
Register the sink once — every run fires it afterward. Scope by --when so it only runs for matching videos.
peepshow sinks add linear
peepshow sinks add linear --when extension=mp4,mov
peepshow sinks add linear --when path=/Volumes/Work/Configuration
PEEPSHOW_LINEAR_TOKENLinear API key with issue-creation scope. requiredPEEPSHOW_LINEAR_TEAMDefault team key if `--sink-arg team` is omitted.
Use with an LLM agent
Every peepshow sink reads its config from env vars and receives a single JSON payload on stdin. An LLM agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini, Codex) can drive the Linear sink automatically when three things are true:
- the env vars below are exported in the agent's shell (or a project
.envit can load), - the
peepshowCLI is onPATH— install withnpm i -g peepshow, - a peepshow auto-sink is registered for the run (optional but recommended — makes invocation zero-argument).
1. Set the environment
# Add to ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, or a project .env the agent can load
export PEEPSHOW_LINEAR_TOKEN="..."2. Register as an auto-sink
peepshow sinks add linear
peepshow sinks add linear --when extension=mp4,mov3. Example LLM session
You → drop a
.movinto Claude Code.Claude → auto-invokes
/peepshow:slides ./clip.mov. peepshow extracts frames + audio, theLinearsink forwards the run to a new issue with the frames attached. Claude replies with a summary and a link to the created record.
Transcript appears in the issue body, giving triage a copy-paste-able record of what was said.
Write your own
A sink is any executable that reads the --emit json payload on stdin. Shell, Node, Python, Go — the spec's in docs/PLUGINS.md. Register persistent ones with peepshow sinks add-cmd 'your-command'.
