pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 767c743d22 record where the member story actually stands
The platform now has `scope: 'shared'` for a dependency every account must be able to run, and the
check that goes with it — world-executable, and every parent directory traversable.

iris cannot use it yet, for a reason worth writing down rather than rediscovering: it BUILDS its
binary in the sidecar rather than declaring it as a dependency, so there is nothing for the probe to
judge. The remaining half is this sidecar installing into /usr/local/bin.

Also corrected open item 3, which said a member's agent "cannot read it there". On alpha it can —
/home/<owner> is mode 751, so an absolute path traverses. That is an accident, not a design, and 750
would break it silently. Stated that way so nobody concludes it already works.

Iris

Website screenshots for your agents. Install this and every agent you talk to can see rendered web pages — any site's, and your own Officer's — instead of inferring them from source code.

Built around iris, a Rust CLI that renders pages in a real Chrome-family browser (Brave, Chromium and Chrome all work) and captures them as images: full pages, single elements, phone and tablet viewports, light and dark.

What installing gets you

  • The iris CLI, compiled from source on first start and put on the standard path.
  • iris-browser, a launcher that lets captures reuse the web sessions you are signed into.
  • An affordance and a skill, so agents know the tool exists and how to drive it — you never have to explain it to them.

There is no screen and no dock tile: the consumer is the agent's shell, not you.

Authenticated captures

Sessions are yours to grant, by signing in — never by handing credentials to an agent. The desktop plugin's browser keeps a persistent profile at ~/.config/officer/browser-profile; sign in to a site there once, and captures ride a read-only copy of those cookies from then on. Each account's sessions live in that account's own home, so nobody captures with anyone else's logins.

Requirements

  • Rust 1.88 or newer. The install brings in your distribution's cargo; if that is older than 1.88 (Ubuntu's currently is), the sidecar refuses with the exact rustup one-liner to run — check pm2 logs officer-iris.
  • A Chrome-family browser. Not installed by this plugin: the desktop plugin is the intended source, since its browser is also where you sign in. Any Brave/Chromium/Chrome already on the machine works for unauthenticated captures.

State of this plugin, plainly

  • The build-and-supervise sidecar, the wrapper, the affordance and the skill are written but not yet verified on a live install — this plugin has not been through the install table on a real machine.
  • The wrapper's session-seeding (copying cookies into the capture profile) is a design that needs live verification against how iris launches its browser; if iris supplies its own profile directory the wrapper seeds that instead of overriding it, but neither branch has run yet.
  • The desktop plugin this integrates with is not published yet; until it is, the persistent profile is whatever you put at ~/.config/officer/browser-profile yourself.
  • No screen, no API, no database — deliberate for now, not missing.
