seeing-images SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
seeing-images from oaustegard/claude-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/seeing-images@v1.0.1Pins v1.0.1 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Augmented vision tools for analyzing images beyond native visual capabilities. Use when tasked with describing images in detail, reproducing images as SVGs, identifying subtle features, comparing image regions, reading degraded text, or any task requiring careful visual inspection. Also use when the image-to-svg skill needs ground truth about colors, shapes, or boundaries.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Seeing Images Compensatory vision tools based on blindspots measured by vision diagnostic v1-v4 on 2026-03-25. Which model it ran on is not recorded here and it has not been re-run since, so read the thresholds as measured-then: they say a tool exists for each failure, not that the current model fails at exactly that number. Re-run the diagnostic before relying on a specific threshold. ## When to Use Activate this skill when: - Describing an uploaded image in detail - Reproducing an image as SVG (use BEFORE drawing to establish ground truth) - Comparing two images or regions for differences - Reading text in degraded/compressed/low-contrast images - Identifying subtle features (gradients, faint overlays, reflections) - Any image task where accuracy matters more than speed ## Known Blindspots (from diagnostics) Measured, not guessed: | Blindspot | Threshold | Compensatory Tool | |-----------|-----------|-------------------| | Luminance contrast | ~15-20 RGB steps invisible | `enhance`, `histogram`, `sample` | | Gradients | <30-step range invisible | `gradient_map`, `enhance` | | Context color bias | Dress effect, simultaneous contrast | `isolate`, `sample` | …

How to install
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/seeing-images@sha256:1388304951eda016The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
