Eyeroll analyzes video footage to help coding agents fix bugs and build features.

eyeroll

AI eyes that roll through video footage — watch, understand, act.

eyeroll is a Claude Code plugin that analyzes screen recordings, Loom videos, YouTube links, and screenshots, then helps coding agents fix bugs, build features, and create skills.

Install

# Add the plugin to Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add mnvsk97/eyeroll
/plugin install eyeroll@mnvsk97-eyeroll

# Install the CLI
pip install eyeroll[gemini]      # Gemini Flash API (recommended)
pip install eyeroll[openai]      # OpenAI GPT-4o + OpenRouter/Groq/Grok/Cerebras
pip install eyeroll              # Ollama only (local, no API key) — requires Pillow
pip install eyeroll[all]         # everything

Setup

/eyeroll:init

Picks your backend, configures API key, and generates codebase context — all in one step.

Commands

Command	What it does
`/eyeroll:init`	Set up eyeroll — pick backend, configure API key, generate `.eyeroll/context.md`
`/eyeroll:watch <url>`	Analyze a video and present a structured summary
`/eyeroll:fix <url>`	Watch a bug video → diagnose → fix the code → raise a PR
`/eyeroll:history`	List past video analyses

Usage

In Claude Code

You: /eyeroll:watch https://loom.com/share/abc123
     → Analyzes video, presents: what's shown, the bug, key evidence, suggested fix

You: /eyeroll:fix https://loom.com/share/abc123
     → Watches video, greps codebase, finds the bug, fixes it, raises a PR

You: watch this tutorial and create a skill from it: ./demo.mp4
     → video-to-skill activates, watches video, generates SKILL.md

You: /eyeroll:history
     → Lists past analyses with timestamps and sources

Standalone CLI

eyeroll watch https://loom.com/share/abc123
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --context "checkout broken after PR #432"
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 -cc .eyeroll/context.md --parallel 4
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --backend ollama -m qwen3-vl:2b
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --backend groq
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --backend openrouter -m anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --backend openai-compat --base-url https://my-server/v1
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --no-context               # skip auto-discovery of codebase context
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --no-cost                   # suppress cost estimate
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --scene-threshold 50        # tune scene-change sensitivity
eyeroll watch ./bug.mp4 --min-audio-confidence 0.6  # stricter audio filtering
eyeroll history

How it works

/eyeroll:watch https://loom.com/share/abc123
    ↓
1. Preflight check (verify backend is reachable, detect capabilities)
    ↓
2. Download video (yt-dlp)
    ↓
3. Choose strategy:
   - Gemini API key: direct upload via File API (up to 2GB)
   - Gemini service account: direct upload (up to 20MB)
   - OpenAI / OpenRouter / Groq: multi-frame batch (all frames in one call)
   - Ollama: frame-by-frame (one frame per call)
    ↓
4. Transcribe audio if present
    ↓
5. Cache intermediates (reuse on next run)
    ↓
6. Synthesize report with codebase context:
   - Metadata: category, confidence, scope, severity, actionable
   - Bug Description + Reproduction Steps
   - Fix Directions (Visible / Codebase-informed / Hypothesis)
   - Search patterns for the coding agent
    ↓
7. Present summary to user
    ↓
/eyeroll:fix goes further:
   → grep codebase → read files → implement fix → run tests → PR

Backends

Backend	Strategy	Audio	API Key	Cost	Best for
gemini	Direct upload (up to 2GB)	Yes	GEMINI_API_KEY	~$0.15	Best quality (gemini-2.5-flash)
openai	Multi-frame batch	Whisper	OPENAI_API_KEY	~$0.20	Existing OpenAI users
ollama	Frame-by-frame	No	None	Free	Privacy, offline
openrouter	Multi-frame batch	No	OPENROUTER_API_KEY	varies	Model variety
groq	Multi-frame batch	No	GROQ_API_KEY	cheap	Low latency
grok	Multi-frame batch	No	GROK_API_KEY	varies	xAI models
cerebras	Multi-frame batch	No	CEREBRAS_API_KEY	cheap	Fast inference
openai-compat	Multi-frame batch	No	any env var	varies	Custom/self-hosted endpoints

Ollama auto-installs if not found (macOS/Linux).

Codebase context

eyeroll automatically discovers codebase context from files like CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, CURSOR.md, and .eyeroll/context.md (disable with --no-context). You can also run /eyeroll:init to generate .eyeroll/context.md manually.

Without context, all file paths in the report are labeled as hypotheses.

Caching

eyeroll caches frame analyses and transcripts in ~/.eyeroll/cache/ (global). Same video = no re-analysis. Different --context re-runs only the cheap synthesis step. Legacy local .eyeroll/cache/ is still checked for backward compatibility.

eyeroll watch video.mp4                    # full analysis (~15s)
eyeroll watch video.mp4 -c "new context"   # instant — cached frames
eyeroll watch video.mp4 --no-cache         # force fresh

Cost estimates

eyeroll prints a cost estimate to stderr after each analysis. Disable with --no-cost. Ollama runs are always free.
