Scrawl captures

Share a Scrawl screen recording as a video page with its transcript and marked moments.

Scrawl, by Kit Langton, records your screen while you talk, click and draw. jalco-drop turns a capture into a page anyone can open: the recording on the left, and the transcript with every marked moment on the right. Clicking a moment jumps the video there.

jalco-drop ~/Library/Application\ Support/scrawl/captures/scrawl-<id>.scrawl

The CLI spots a capture and uploads only what the page needs:

  • the video, with your narration merged in (Scrawl records them separately, so this needs ffmpeg);
  • the marked frames and the contact sheet;
  • a trimmed scrawl.json, without the cursor track or the list of every window title on your screen.

Captures expire after 30 days unless you pass -e. Link previews carry og:video, so the recording can play inline where a chat app supports it.
