image-vision skillA

image-vision is agent-read markdown (skill) from microsoft/amplifier-bundle-skills: Analyze images using LLM vision APIs (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT-4, Google Gemini, Azure OpenAI). Use when a task requires understanding image content, describing visual elements, answering questions about images, comparing images, or extracting text from images (OCR). Provides ready-to-use scripts..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Image Vision Analysis

## Overview

Analyze images using state-of-the-art LLM vision models. **Use the provided scripts** for most tasks - custom code only needed for advanced scenarios.

## Workflow Decision Tree

### First time using this skill?
→ Read [`setup.md`](setup.md) for one-time environment and API key setup

### Simple image analysis (most common)
→ Use "Quick Start" canned scripts below

### Batch processing or multi-turn conversations
→ Read [`patterns.md`](patterns.md) for advanced patterns

### Something failing?
→ Check setup.md for troubleshooting

## Quick Start (Use Wrapper Scripts)

**ALWAYS use the wrapper scripts** - they handle venv setup automatically:

```bash
# Simple analysis (auto-creates venv on first use)
./vision-analyze.sh <provider> <image_path> <prompt>

# Robust analysis (auto-fallback if provider times out)
./vision-analyze-robust.sh <image_path> <prompt> [timeout_seconds]
```

**The wrapper scripts automatically:**
- Create venv if it doesn't exist
- Install required SDKs
- Use venv Python (no manual activation needed)
- Handle errors gracefully

**Example usage:**

```bash
# Analyze a UI screenshot (Anthropic Claude)
