Screenshot / Game View

Captures a screenshot from the Unity Editor Game View and returns it as an image. Reads the Game View's own render texture directly via the Unity Editor API. The image size matches the current Game View resolution. Returns the image directly for visual inspection by the LLM.

Behavior

Locates UnityEditor.GameView, repaints it, then reflects the m_RenderTexture field and reads back via Texture2D.ReadPixels. On graphics APIs whose UV origin is top-left (SystemInfo.graphicsUVStartsAtTop), the read-back pixels are vertically flipped before encoding so the orientation matches what the user sees. Returns a PNG image with the resolution baked into the caption.

How to Call
