Local-first Chrome™ extension for AI coding handoff

Turn real UI feedback into AI-ready evidence

Working in Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf? Select a real page element or local build component. FrontCap captures source hints, DOM, computed CSS, visual features, and optional screenshots, then exports a focused Markdown handoff.

Local capture by default Markdown for AI coding tools Screenshots stay opt-in

A local handoff layer for AI-assisted frontend work

Use FrontCap after visual review, design inspiration, or UI iteration when your coding assistant needs exact page evidence.

01

Pick the element

Open the side panel, enter picker mode, and select the UI surface that needs attention.

02

Add intent

Write the change request in the popover and opt into a screenshot only when visual evidence matters.

03

Bundle evidence

Selectors, source hints, DOM, computed CSS, pseudo-elements, assets, and visual limitations are captured locally.

04

Export Markdown

Choose captures, keep the token budget visible, and paste the Markdown handoff into Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or any assistant that reads Markdown.

Evidence for coding assistants, not guesswork

The page context a frontend agent needs — gathered locally, organized for Markdown handoff.

Pick any element

A robust selector bundle pins the exact node, so your assistant edits the right thing.

Source location

Read-only source hints from the page and framework dev runtime — no markers injected into your page.

Computed CSS & visuals

Resolved styles, pseudo-elements, and visual features — labelled as browser values, never claimed as source.

Element screenshots

Opt-in per capture, off by default. Saved to your Downloads and linked from the Markdown.

Markdown-first export

Built for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf — and any tool that reads Markdown.

Frequently asked

Is my page data uploaded anywhere?

No. FrontCap captures DOM, CSS, screenshots, and your notes entirely on your machine — the extension uploads none of it. Only sign-in and subscription checks talk to the network. Note that when you paste the exported Markdown into a cloud coding assistant, that content travels to that assistant's provider as part of your paste. See our Privacy Policy.

What's in an export?

Your annotation, the selected element, source location, a DOM snapshot, computed CSS, pseudo-elements, visual features, an optional screenshot reference, and capture notes — all as Markdown.

How do screenshots work?

Screenshot files are saved in the Downloads folder configured in Settings. When you want to provide a screenshot to a coding assistant, upload the image separately yourself; exported Markdown does not embed screenshot image data.

Which coding assistants does it work with?

Any tool that reads Markdown — Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and others. FrontCap doesn't call any model itself; it just hands you clean, pasteable evidence.

Is FrontCap affiliated with Claude Design or Anthropic?

No. FrontCap is independent and not affiliated with Anthropic. It complements Claude Design-style workflows by capturing real webpage evidence locally and exporting Markdown you can paste into Claude Code or another coding assistant.

Does it work on localhost or local files?

Yes. For local dev servers, FrontCap requests access to localhost when you turn capture on. For file:// pages, enable “Allow access to file URLs” on the extension's details page.

How does billing work?

Every new account gets a 14-day free trial. After that, choose a Day Pass, Monthly, or Yearly plan. Payments are handled by Paddle, our Merchant of Record — FrontCap never sees your card details. Cancel a monthly plan anytime; access continues to the end of the paid period. See our Terms.
