Automating Screenshot Capture with Cursor 2.0's Built-in Browser

In this episode, Jason demonstrate how Cursor's built-in browser feature can automatically navigate to web apps, take screenshots, and update documentation files using just natural language instructions. Using a simple Plinko game as a demo, I show how this eliminates the need for tools like Playwright or MCP servers for basic testing and screenshot tasks.
