+"""Capture a screenshot of hsdbg without touching the running app.
+
+Runs the binary with the dev hooks the app reads from the environment, lets it
+draw for a number of frames, and converts the framebuffer dump it writes into a
+png. Useful for eyeballing ui changes from a shell (or an agent) that cannot
+grab the screen.
+
+ tools/capture.py out.png [--build build] [--target test/hello]
+ [--break hello.cpp:13] [--step 150,200] [--open palette]
+ [--frame 240] [--window 1600x900] [--cwd dir]
+
+Hooks (all read once at startup):
+ HSDBG_CAPTURE=<file.ppm> dump the frame HSDBG_CAPTURE_FRAME (default 240) and quit
+ HSDBG_WINDOW=<w>x<h> initial window size
+ HSDBG_BREAK=<file>:<line> plant a breakpoint and launch the target right away
+ HSDBG_STEP_AT=<f>[,<f>...] step over a line on those frames while stopped
+ HSDBG_OPEN=palette|target|preferences[:tab] raise that overlay on the second frame
+
+--cwd picks where imgui.ini / hsdbg.ini are read and written (default: a fresh
+directory beside the output, so your own layout and preferences stay untouched).
