 "summary": "Save a PNG or PDF of a rendered page for review, reports, or visual checks.",
 "who": "A QA tester or operations person who needs an image or PDF of a live page, triggered by a need for visual evidence.",
 "problem": "Text extraction alone cannot show how a page looks, and most headless setups need a separate browser install to take pictures.",
 "outcome": "A PNG of the viewport or the full page, or a paginated PDF, saved to a local file.",
 "steps": [
  "Install the Moli binary from the README installer.",
  "Run `moli fetch --layout --dump screenshot https://example.com > page.png` for a viewport PNG.",
  "Run `moli fetch --layout --dump pdf https://example.com > page.pdf` to save a paginated PDF instead."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the repo lexmount/moli, run `moli fetch --layout --dump screenshot <target-url> > page.png`. Save the PNG and report its file size. Verify that the file opens as an image showing the page.",

 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Visual output requires the --layout flag because layout and rendering are off by default, so screenshots will not appear without it.",
