  PixelLock is the ultimate, zero-friction screen capture and annotation suite built exclusively for developers, QA engineers, and SaaS founders.
  
  Stop wrestling with generic snipping tools or paying for heavy desktop apps. PixelLock runs 100% locally in your browser tab to capture, measure, redact, and now convert web components directly into code.
  
  🔥 WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2.0:
  • 🤖 PixelForge Integration (Image-to-Code): 1-Click transfer your UI captures directly to the PixelForge web workspace to instantly convert your screenshots into structural HTML and modern CSS.
  • 📚 Local History Log: A brand new, sleek Detail Viewport that automatically saves your recent captures locally in your browser so you never lose a snip. View hex/RGB palettes extracted straight from your images.
  • 📦 Batch Export (ZIP): Instantly download all of your recent UI captures in a single, lightweight ZIP archive to respect browser clipboard limits.
  
  🚀 CORE DEVELOPER SUITE:
  • 🎯 Smart DOM Snapping: Hover over any HTML element on the page, and the capture viewport will automatically lock to its exact bounding box coordinates.
  • 📐 Layout Measurement Rulers: Draw technical measurement brackets to highlight pixel spacing, margins, and padding for UI code reviews.
  • 🔒 Token Sweeper (Redact): Instantly scrub API keys, passwords, and sensitive environment variables with secure, stylized redaction blocks.
  • 🪟 SaaS Window Wrapper: With one click, wrap your raw screenshot in a premium macOS browser frame floating over a stunning radial background gradient.
  • ⚡ Direct-to-Clipboard Export: Hit [Enter] to bypass messy file downloads. Compile the canvas and paste your beautiful, annotated image directly into GitHub Pull Requests, Jira, or Slack.
  
  🛡️ PRIVACY FIRST:
  • 100% Local processing (HTML5 Canvas & IndexedDB)
  • Zero cloud servers, zero tracking, zero background uploads ("PixelLock's 'History' feature utilizes your browser's native local database (IndexedDB). All captured images are stored locally on your physical device and are never automatically uploaded, synced, or transmitted to any external server or cloud database.")
  • No login or account required for the extension
  • Completely free
