5 use cases

  • Show your agent a bug and have it fixed

    Record the bug on screen, pin the broken element, then paste the prompt so your agent can fix it.

    View prompt
    Using the Yap CLI and skill in the <repo or project path>, read the recording referenced in the pasted Yap prompt, find the frame where I said 'this' and the element I pinned, and fix it in the code. Report the changed files and confirm the pinned element now renders correctly.

  • Turn a rough product take into a captioned demo

    Have your agent cut a single take of you showing the product into a tight, captioned demo video.

    View prompt
    Using the Yap CLI and skill, take the recording in <recording ID or file path>, cut out dead air and false starts, add captions from the transcript, and export a 60-second MP4 demo. Report the output path and the total duration, and confirm the captions match the spoken words.

  • Clean a podcast episode into clips and show notes

    Clean the audio, cut highlight clips with captions and turn the transcript into show notes.

    View prompt
    Using the Yap CLI and skill, process the episode at <file path or recording ID>. Remove background noise, match loudness, export an M4A of the narration, and cut three captioned highlight clips. Report each output path and check that the show notes quote the transcript accurately.

  • Rehearse a pitch on camera and get pacing feedback

    Record a practice pitch on camera and have your agent report pacing, filler words and rambling sections.

    View prompt
    Using the Yap CLI and skill, read the transcript and audio of the practice recording <recording ID>. Report the pacing, the filler words with their timestamps and any sections where the pitch drifted. Verify each timestamp by checking the transcript word timings.

  • Fix a misspoken word in your own voice

    Regenerate one misspoken phrase in your voice with a local model instead of re-recording the whole take.

    View prompt
    Using the Yap CLI and skill, find the phrase at <timestamp> in recording <recording ID> and regenerate it in the speaker's own voice, replacing the word <wrong word> with <correct word>. Report the revision ID and confirm by previewing that only that phrase changed.

How to use Yap

  1. Check you have what it needs: An Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 26 or newer; Claude Code, Codex or another AI agent harness; Permission to record the screen, microphone and optional camera when the app asks.
  2. Open dzhng/yap on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Ask your agent to install Yap by following https://justyap.io/llms.txt, or download the latest release from GitHub Releases and open Yap.app.
  4. Press ⌥⇧S over the display with the bug, talk while you hold ⇧ to draw, and ⇧-click to drop a numbered pin on the broken element.
  5. Press ⌥⇧S again to finish the recording.
  6. Press ⌥⇧V to paste the prompt into your agent, then say 'fix this'.

These steps come from our top use case, Show your agent a bug and have it fixed, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
