Are you able to share a photo of what you're experiencing? For me, cmd+ shift + s pulls up an overlay for me to drag to take a screenshot and this works as expected. If I open the snipping tool app, this gets managed as expected for me.

By the way, for some reason I can't use snipping tool's video capture properly. It shows the overlay, but it gets managed (and it looks like it's not an overlay anymore, just a replica of my current monitors that is opened in a window.

I would share the video of it, but I can't capture it properly:)

I'm seeing the issue, and also can't screen record it properly due to what @vbifonixor described. I believe it's because snipping tool is a window that stretches across all monitors, and komorebi treats it as a window and immediately tiles it when it spawns.

komorebic float-rule title "Snipping Tool" fixes the issue.

This has been in the community configuration for a while now:

Users who are still experiencing this are recommended to making sure they have the latest version, and that they are referring to the correct file locally, by running komorebic fetch-asc.
