vision

A vision skill for configuring image-understanding backends and viewing pasted or clipboard images from the coding agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for adding, deleting, switching, enabling, disabling, and checking vision backends, and for viewing an image from the clipboard.
Why use it?
It provides a fixed set of commands for managing vision backends and lets the agent inspect an image without asking for a saved file.

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 yesterday.

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 it actually says

/vision

User-facing command is /vision ... in the agent. That maps 1:1 to CLI vision ....

When this skill is invoked with leftover text (the part after /vision), run that as CLI args. Do not invent flags. Never echo the full apikey.

/vision add <model> <apikey>
/vision delete <name>
/vision switch <name>
/vision enable
/vision disable
/vision status
/vision see

Prefer MCP vision_config / vision_see if those tools exist. Otherwise shell:

vision $ARGUMENTS

Empty /visionvision status plus the list above.

Images (no slash)

Pasted screenshot / 图片 / 截图 / [Image 1]vision_see with empty image (clipboard). Do not ask for a file path. In DeepSeek Harness the plugin captions chat attachments before the text model runs; still use vision_see if the user only copied to the clipboard.

Changes

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.
