Type Alias: VideoCaptureMode

VideoCaptureMode = "smart" | "continuous"

Defined in: aiui-lowering-pipeline/src/types.ts:131

How the screen share decides when to sample.

  • "smart" (the default): a frame goes out only when the human has touched the page since the last one — a press, a key, a wheel, a drag, a stroke (local or from the iPad). Sitting still and narrating costs nothing. The cadence is a ceiling, not a metronome.
  • "continuous": a frame every cadence tick regardless. Honest when the screen is changing without you (a running simulation), expensive always.

Both modes ride the compiled prompt so the agent knows which it is reading.
