The full story
claude-code-eyes gives Claude Code a camera skill so it can see real hardware. It can check a rendered display, verify wiring before power-on, and catch bugs that only show on the glass, not in the logs. The author used it to have Claude build an ESP32 project and fix its on-screen interface by looking through a webcam.
