 # Changelog
 
+## [0.8.1] - 2026-10-28
+
+### Changed
+
+- The camera moved out of the composer row and into the open right panel's own
+  top-right corner, where the panel is what you are looking at. The composer
+  dock entry stays, invisibly, to publish the session context the button needs.
+
+## [0.8.0] - 2026-10-28
+
+### Added
+
+- **Right-panel screenshot.** A camera button in the composer row photographs the
+  right panel's open tab, copies the PNG to the clipboard, and attaches it to the
+  message being written — one click in place of a snip tool, for the panel rather
+  than the whole screen. The capture is a DOM rasterisation inside the page,
+  because the Shell exposes no capture bridge and no display-media source; the
+  browser tab and the HTML preview live in iframes and are the two surfaces it
+  cannot see. `docs/panel-screenshot.md` records the limits.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `html2canvas` 1.4.1 is vendored at `vendor/html2canvas.min.js` and inlined into
+  `lib/client.js` by `pnpm build:client`: the Shell's module table answers `react`
+  and `react-dom` only, so a rasteriser has to travel inside the bundle.

+# Right-panel screenshot
+
+The right panel grows a camera button in its own top-right corner, beside the
+Shell's split, expand and close controls. One click photographs the right
+panel's **open tab**, puts the picture on the clipboard, and attaches it to the
+message being written — the same place a pasted screenshot lands, so it can be
+sent with the next prompt without touching another tool.
+
+This page records how that works, and — more importantly — what it cannot do,
+because the honest limits are the part that decides whether it replaces a snip
+tool for a given job.
+
+## What it captures
+
+The right panel is ordinary DOM in the same document as the chat, so the target
+is found with an attribute selector rather than a private class name:
+
+| target | selector |
+|---|---|
+| the open tab's body | `[data-sidebar-right-session][data-sidebar-right-open] [data-dockkit-pane-active]` |
+| the panel itself (fallback) | `[data-sidebar-right-session][data-sidebar-right-open]` |
+| the bottom panel (fallback) | `[data-dsh-panel][data-dsh-bottom-panel]` |
+
+The first selector is what makes this work for both right sides: the Shell's own
+sidebar and `dsh-better-sidebar` both render their tabs through the same dock
+container, so the *active pane* is the current tab in either one. Targets are
+skipped when they are smaller than 48 px in either direction, which keeps a
+collapsed panel from producing a sliver.
+
+## How the picture is made
+
+`html2canvas` (vendored at `vendor/html2canvas.min.js`, inlined into
+`lib/client.js` by `scripts/build-client.mjs`) rasterises the element in the page
+at `min(2, max(1.5, devicePixelRatio))`. The background is the first opaque
+ancestor colour, so a transparent panel still reads as a surface.
+
+This is the only route a plugin has. The Shell exposes:
+
+- **no capture bridge** — the desktop preload exposes `__DSH_DIRECTORY_PICKER__`,
+  `__DSH_HOST_PATHS__`, `dshDesktopBoot`, `dshDesktop`, `dshPlatform`, and no
+  screenshot channel;
+- **no working `getDisplayMedia`** — the API exists, but nothing installs a
+  display-media request handler on the app's session, so the call is refused
+  outright rather than offering a source;
+- **no Host route to pixels** — the Host runs in a separate process and has no
+  access to the renderer.
+
+Capture therefore happens in the renderer, from the DOM, which is also why it
+works identically in the web build and in the app.
+
+## What it cannot capture
+
+1. **The browser tab and the HTML preview.** Both render inside an
+   `<iframe>`/`<webview>` whose document is not readable from the page, so a
+   rasteriser sees an empty rectangle there. Everything else — files, documents,
+   images, diffs, plans, subagent chats, plugin tabs — is plain DOM and captures
+   normally.
+2. **Anything outside the app window.** The button photographs a panel, not the
+   desktop, so a snip tool still wins for a region spanning two applications or a
+   native dialog.
+3. **Live pixels that refuse to be copied.** A cross-origin image without CORS
+   headers taints the canvas and would throw; the capture fails with a notice
+   instead of producing a blank picture. The Shell's own panels are same-origin,
+   so this only shows up with third-party content.
+
+## How the image reaches the message
+
+Two calls, in this order, mirroring the composer's own intake:
+
+```js
+// mints the draft attachment and starts its upload
+const drafts = ctx.get('conversation').createDrafts(sessionId, [file], true)
+// puts the minted ids in the composer, where the user can see and remove them
+props.inputActions.addAttachments(drafts.map((draft) => draft.id))
+```
+
+`createDrafts` is not part of the public `IConversation` interface, but it is the
+only `File` → id entry point in the Shell, and the product itself reaches it the
+same way. `addAttachments` is the public half: it is a standard prop on
+session-scoped slots, which the composer row already is. The button itself is
+root-level (it sits over the panel, not inside its DOM), so the composer dock
+keeps an invisible entry that publishes the session context into a store; the
+button reads that store and disappears when no Session is open. The bytes travel over
+the Shell's own upload route, so a screenshot behaves exactly like a pasted
+image, including for the model that receives it.
+
+## When it refuses
+
+The button reports its own state instead of failing silently:
+
+- no panel open → *open a panel on the right first*
+- clipboard blocked → the image is still attached, with *right panel attached,
+  clipboard refused*
+- anything else → the reason in the row, plus
+  `[aryacode-polish] panel screenshot failed:` in the console
+
+The switch is in the row's Configure page like every other surface, and turning
+it off removes the button without unloading anything else.
