Visual review
Provide a specific, prioritized critique of a visual artifact without claiming
an independent reviewer was used when the managed transport cannot carry the
image.
Current availability boundary
The public coordinator protocol accepts bounded UTF-8 prompts, text documents,
and exact text artifact snapshots. It has no image, media-type, or binary
attachment field. Therefore managed cross-family visual review is
temporarily unavailable in this release.
Never:
- encode image bytes into a text document or prompt;
- pass a local path and assume the native runtime will read it;
- add an undocumented coordinator field;
- discover or invoke a provider CLI directly;
- describe a primary-only read as independent or cross-family.
If the workflow requires governance-grade reviewer independence, return typed
unavailable and state that a signed typed image contract is required.
Workflow
- Inspect the image using the active host's native visual capability. When any region is
detail-bound — small text, dense charts, closely spaced lines, fine UI
detail — magnify it before reading: use the host's native zoom or crop
actions, or a code-execution crop from the full-resolution source. A
full-view-only read of sub-patch detail is unreliable and tends to fail
confidently rather than uncertainly.
- State once that this is a primary-only visual read and is not an independent
cross-family review.
- Select one or two lenses that match the user's request: hierarchy and flow,
readability, information density, consistency, accessibility, brand and
tone, or comparative judgment.
- Return the top three findings ranked by severity. For each, name the exact
element, the problem, and one concrete fix.
- For a comparison, pick one winner against the user's stated criteria and
name one element worth borrowing from the other variant.
When only OCR text, alt text, or a user-authored textual description is in
scope, that text may be reviewed through an advisory route. Label the result a
textual-description review, not a visual review.
Output
Use this compact form:
Availability: PRIMARY-ONLY | MANAGED VISUAL REVIEW UNAVAILABLE
1. [Critical|High|Medium] <element and issue> — Fix: <concrete fix>
2. [Critical|High|Medium] <element and issue> — Fix: <concrete fix>
3. [Critical|High|Medium] <element and issue> — Fix: <concrete fix>
Avoid generic praise, unsupported pixel measurements, invented contrast
ratios, or claims about image details the active primary cannot actually see.
1---2name: visual-review3description: Review a screenshot, mockup, slide, chart, diagram, photograph, or marketing asset for hierarchy, readability, density, consistency, accessibility, and brand fit. Use when the user says "review this design," "look at this screenshot," "design feedback," "accessibility review," "is this on-brand," or "compare these variants," or when a visual artifact is about to ship. The unified plugin currently has no managed cross-family image transport, so this skill provides an honest primary-only visual pass or reports independent visual review unavailable; it never fabricates a verifier call.4---56# Visual review78Provide a specific, prioritized critique of a visual artifact without claiming9an independent reviewer was used when the managed transport cannot carry the10image.1112## Current availability boundary1314The public coordinator protocol accepts bounded UTF-8 prompts, text documents,15and exact text artifact snapshots.
