media-context

A local media-analysis plugin for giving Claude context from video, audio, or image files and URLs. It uses frame montages, scene detection, speech transcription, and on-screen text recognition.

In plain words
What is it for?
Summarizing visual scenes, transcribing audio with Whisper, reading text with Tesseract OCR, and reviewing media supplied as files or URLs.
Why use it?
It lets Claude inspect media and extract useful context locally, without requiring paid external APIs or manual transcription.

Security

Grade A, and why

media-context 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.

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.
