ag2-multimodal-input

ag2-multimodal-input is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ag2ai/ag2-skills. It costs 138 tokens per session (1,785 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A way to give an AG2 agent images, audio, video, or documents together with text. AG2 is a framework for building software agents that can ask models to process these inputs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to describe images, transcribe audio, summarize videos or PDFs, extract information from documents, or compare multiple images in one request.
Why use it?
It avoids converting every non-text file into plain text before asking an agent to work with it.

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

ag2-multimodal-input 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 10d 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.

Multimodal inputs

When to use

The user wants the agent to process non-text input: an image to describe, audio to transcribe, video to summarise, or a PDF / document to extract from. The same factory pattern works across providers; per-provider support varies.

60-second recipe

from ag2 import Agent
from ag2.config import GeminiConfig
from ag2.events import ImageInput

agent = Agent(
    "vision",
    "You describe images.",
    config=GeminiConfig(model="gemini-3-flash-preview"),
)

image = ImageInput("https://example.com/photo.jpg")
reply = await agent.ask("Describe this image in detail.", image)
print(reply.body)

Multiple inputs in one ask are fine:

reply = await agent.ask(
    "Compare these two images.",
    ImageInput("https://example.com/before.jpg"),
    ImageInput("https://example.com/after.jpg"),
)

Input factories

Factory Formats
ImageInput(...) JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP
AudioInput(...) WAV, MP3, OGG, FLAC, AAC
VideoInput(...) MP4, WebM, MOV, MKV, MPEG
DocumentInput(...) PDF, TXT, HTML, Markdown, CSV, JSON, Office formats

Each accepts the same four data sources:

from ag2.events import ImageInput

ImageInput("https://example.com/photo.jpg")     # URL
ImageInput(path="photo.jpg")                    # local file
ImageInput(data=raw_bytes, media_type="image/png")  # bytes
ImageInput(file_id="file-abc123")               # provider-uploaded

Provider matrix

Input type OpenAI OpenAI Responses Gemini Anthropic
Text
Image (URL)
Image (binary)
Audio (URL)
Audio (binary)
Video (URL)
Video (binary)
Document (URL)
Document (binary)
File ID

Unsupported combinations raise UnsupportedInputError with a clear message.

Gemini has the broadest multimodal support. If you don't know which provider to pick for a multimodal task, start there.

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.
