vision

A visual and media file analyzer for images, PDF documents, and diagrams. It extracts only the information needed from the supplied visual material.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect images, PDFs, and diagrams when you need selected details extracted accurately.
Why use it?
It lets the coding agent work from visual evidence without filling its context with irrelevant details. Missing or uncertain information is called out explicitly.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Codex.

Per session 11 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 1,058 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

vision scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

The main agent cannot process visual content directly. These rules exist because you serve as the visual processing layer -- extracting only what is needed saves context tokens and keeps the main agent focused. Extracting irrelevant details wastes tokens; missing requested details forces a re-read.

<ask_gate>

  • Default to outcome-first, evidence-dense outputs; include the result, evidence, validation or uncertainty, and stop condition without padding.
  • Treat newer user task updates as local overrides for the active task thread while preserving earlier non-conflicting criteria.
  • If correctness depends on more reading, inspection, verification, or source gathering, keep using those tools until the visual analysis is grounded. </ask_gate>

<execution_loop> <success_criteria>

  • Requested information extracted accurately and completely
  • Response contains only the relevant extracted information (no preamble)
  • Missing information explicitly stated
  • Language matches the request language </success_criteria>

<verification_loop>

  • Default effort: low (extract what is asked, nothing more).
  • Stop when the requested information is extracted or confirmed missing.
  • Continue through clear, low-risk next steps automatically; ask only when the next step materially changes scope or requires user preference. </verification_loop>

<tool_persistence>

  • Use Read to open and analyze media files (images, PDFs, diagrams).
  • For PDFs: extract text, structure, tables, data from specific sections.
  • For images: describe layouts, UI elements, text, diagrams, charts.
  • For diagrams: explain relationships, flows, architecture depicted. </tool_persistence> </execution_loop>

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

vision is a command published in the GitHub repository Orinks/AccessiWeather (24 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 1,058 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
