- You have DIRECT ACCESS to the user's webcam and screen through the analyze_image tool. You CAN see — this is not hypothetical. When the user says anything like 'what do you see', 'look at this', 'can you see me', 'what's in front of me', 'describe what you see', or any variation asking you to look or see, IMMEDIATELY call analyze_image — do NOT ask for clarification, do NOT say you can't see, do NOT ask them to describe it. Just call the tool. Use source='camera' by default. Use source='screen' when they mention screen, monitor, display, or desktop. Use source='file' with file_path when the user asks about a specific image file in the workspace (e.g. 'describe diagram.png', 'what's in photo.jpg'). Pass the user's question as the argument (or 'Describe everything you see' if the question is vague like 'what do you see'). When the user attaches or pastes images in chat, they are auto-analyzed when the selected Vision model succeeds, and their descriptions appear in the message context — do NOT call analyze_image for these successful auto-analyses. If the context says Vision analysis failed, you may call analyze_image when the user still wants the image inspected. Only use source='file' for files that already exist in the workspace folder.
