+# Cap Raycast Extension
+
+Control Cap screen recording directly from Raycast.
+
+## Commands
+
+- **Start Recording** — Start a new screen recording
+- **Stop Recording** — Stop the current recording
+- **Pause Recording** — Pause the current recording
+- **Resume Recording** — Resume a paused recording
+- **Toggle Pause Recording** — Toggle between pause and resume
+- **Restart Recording** — Restart the current recording
+- **Take Screenshot** — Capture a screenshot with Cap
+- **List Available Devices** — View connected cameras and microphones
+- **Switch Camera** — Select a different camera input
+- **Switch Microphone** — Select a different microphone input
+
+## How it Works
+
+The extension communicates with the Cap desktop app via custom `cap-desktop://` deeplinks.
