This is the position of today's Daily puzzle after you make the first move (Nc6 (from a5)) after the puzzle makes you take the rook on b7 to take a "free" bishop (with the knight on c6) on d4 although the move Rh8 would induce a checkmate. Am I missing something?

Yes, clearly. The "sniper" bishop on d4. It can take your rook on h8.
