vision-mcp AGENTS.md

vision-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from hwalde/vision-mcp. It costs 1,850 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for vision-mcp, a local MCP server that analyses images. It can detect objects, read text with OCR, and describe layout relationships on Windows, macOS, and Linux without sending images to a cloud service.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when installing, configuring, or maintaining vision-mcp and its Python, YOLOv8, and EasyOCR dependencies.
Why use it?
It documents the software, models, setup, and environment variables needed to run image analysis offline.

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-mcp AGENTS.md 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.

Vision MCP — Setup & Konfiguration

Diese Datei ist die einzige Quelle der Projekt-Doku. CLAUDE.md importiert sie per @AGENTS.md, damit Claude Code sie automatisch mitlädt — nicht duplizieren, hier pflegen.

MCP-Server (stdio, Python/FastMCP) für Bild-Analyse: Objekterkennung (YOLOv8) und Texterkennung/OCR (EasyOCR), plus abgeleitete Layout-Aussagen (Abstände, Zentrierung). Läuft auf Windows, macOS und Linux, komplett lokal und offline — es geht kein Bild an eine Cloud-API.

Die Ausgabe ist bewusst LLM-optimierter Markdown-Text, kein JSON: natürliche Sätze wie „Text „Headline" liegt 276px oberhalb von person." verarbeitet ein LLM zuverlässiger als verschachtelte Koordinaten-Strukturen.


Was der Server braucht

Baustein Zweck
Python ≥ 3.10 Laufzeit
Pakete aus requirements.txt u. a. ultralytics (YOLO) und easyocr — beide ziehen torch transitiv mit
YOLOv8-Gewichte (yolov8n.pt, ~6 MB) werden beim ersten Start automatisch geladen
EasyOCR-Sprachmodelle (~100 MB) werden beim ersten OCR-Aufruf automatisch geladen

Kein API-Key, kein Cloud-Konto, keine Auth. Nur der erste Start braucht Internet, um die Modelle zu holen.


Installation

Nach dem Auschecken genügen zwei Befehle — identisch auf allen Betriebssystemen:

macOS / Linux

pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 server.py --selftest

Windows (PowerShell)

pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py --selftest

--selftest ist der schnellste Weg zur Gewissheit: Er prüft die Python-Version, meldet jedes fehlende Paket namentlich, lädt YOLO- und OCR-Modelle vor (der einzige Schritt, der Internet braucht) und analysiert ein selbst erzeugtes Testbild. Endet er mit „Alles bereit", ist der Server einsatzfähig — man muss den Fehler nicht erst beim ersten Tool-Aufruf im Agenten entdecken. Exit-Code 0 = alles in Ordnung, 1 = Problem.

Was dabei zu erwarten ist: ultralytics und easyocr ziehen PyTorch mit — mehrere hundert MB, die Installation dauert entsprechend. Der erste --selftest lädt zusätzlich ~6 MB YOLO-Gewichte und ~100 MB OCR-Modelle. Danach läuft alles offline.

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.
