### `mobilewright inspect`

Open the Mobilewright Inspector — a browser-based UI showing a live screenshot of your connected device alongside every element and its best locator.

```bash
npx mobilewright inspect
npx mobilewright inspect --port 4621 # use a specific port (default: 4621)
```

The Inspector opens automatically in your browser. Select a device from the picker at the top, then click **Refresh** or enable **Auto refresh**. Click any row in the element list to highlight its bounding box on the screenshot. Elements that share a locator with another element get a `dup` badge.

Locator priority matches what mobilewright uses: `getByTestId` > `getByRole` > `getByLabel` > `getByText`.

### `mobilewright screenshot`

Capture a screenshot of a connected device. Auto-starts mobilecli if it isn't running.
