image-to-markdown-vp

image-to-markdown-vp is a skill for Codex from VectorPeak/vectorpeak-agent-skills. It costs 54 tokens per session (3,489 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for converting screenshots into structured, Obsidian-ready Markdown. It preserves visible headings, tables, formulas, diagrams, charts, and code as accurately as practical.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to process screenshots, reconstruct document structure, convert diagrams to Mermaid when appropriate, add alt text, and validate that visual regions are represented in the final Markdown.
Why use it?
It helps turn visual notes or interface captures into editable text without losing their layout or important structure. OCR means extracting text from an image.

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

image-to-markdown-vp 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 2mo 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.

Image To Markdown VP

Purpose

Convert one or more screenshots into human-readable Obsidian-ready Markdown while preserving the visible structure as faithfully as practical.

This skill is for capture and reconstruction, not for rewriting or summarizing, unless the user explicitly asks.

Execution Mode

This skill defaults to multi-agent execution for real screenshot-to-Markdown work.

  • MUST use multi-agent execution whenever the task includes multiple screenshots, mixed region types, diagrams, charts, UI evidence, or continuation batches.
  • MUST assign one dedicated screenshot-handling agent. This agent owns screenshot inspection, crop decisions, remote uploads, alt text, and insertion anchors.
  • MUST assign one structure-reconstruction agent. This agent owns OCR hierarchy, tables, formulas, code fences, and Mermaid conversion.
  • The main agent owns merge, final write, and final validation.
  • If the batch is large, dense, or risky, add a validator agent to reconcile the region manifest against the final Markdown.
  • Only skip multi-agent execution when the task is truly tiny: one small screenshot with plain prose or a simple code block and no meaningful visual evidence.

Required Inputs

Before writing a file, the user must explicitly provide:

  • Output directory path
  • Output Markdown filename, or an unambiguous Markdown basename. If the basename is clear but .md is missing, append .md automatically.
  • One or more screenshots or images
  • A generation signal such as “生成”, “继续补充”, “输出到文件”, or equivalent

If the path or filename is missing, stop and ask. Do not invent the destination.

Multi-Batch Handling

  • Treat newly provided screenshots as part of the same capture set when the user clearly says they are continuing the same document.
  • Preserve screenshot order by conversation order and attachment order unless the user corrects it.
  • If the user says more images are coming, the final response MUST explicitly say the Markdown is still partial.
  • If the user adds more images after a file already exists, update the same file only when they explicitly ask to continue that file.
  • If a batch starts or ends in the middle of a section, table, formula, or code block, preserve only the visible content and do not invent the hidden continuation.

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.
