I built an open-source tool that records screen + voice bug reports producing AI-ready markdown
Source: Dev.to
Introduction
I kept running into the same problem in AI‑assisted dev workflows: bug reporting was still manual and slow.
You find an issue, then switch to writing mode — describe context, take screenshots, organize everything, and rewrite it for your coding agent.
So I built markupR. It takes screen + voice and turns it into structured markdown with inline screenshots that AI tools can use directly.
Workflow
- Record your screen while narrating what’s wrong
- Transcription + timestamp analysis
- Frame extraction at relevant moments
- Output: AI‑ready markdown report
Why I’m building it this way
- Open source (MIT)
- Free forever core workflow
- BYOK if you want cloud models
- Local options if you don’t
I’m not trying to build lock‑in here — I want a tool people actually use and improve over time.
Feedback
If you try it, I’d love feedback on:
- Where your current bug‑report handoff breaks
- Whether this output format is useful in real projects
- What would make this production‑worthy for teams
