  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by PhyAgentOS on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Image AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/PhyAgentOS/PhyAgentOS-core.git /tmp/PhyAgentOS-core
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/PhyAgentOS-core/PhyAgentOS/skills/image .claude/skills/image
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Image in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Image on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Image is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Image Tool

Unified tool for analyzing and displaying images. Supports two modes: vision analysis using multimodal LLM models and displaying images to users through the frontend.

Features

  • Analyze images using multimodal LLM models (OCR, description, visual QA)
  • Display images to users by sending them to the frontend
  • Generate images from text prompts using AI models
  • Support multiple image formats: PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, WEBP, BMP
  • Base64 encoding for image processing and transmission

Tools

This skill provides the following tool:

image

Unified tool for image analysis, display, and generation.

Parameters:

  • mode (string, required): The operation mode - vision for image analysis, display for showing images to users, generate for creating images from text prompts
  • image_path (string, required):
    • In vision/display mode: Absolute path to the image file (e.g., "/Users/photo.png")
    • In generate mode: File name where the generated image will be saved. This parameter should contain few words which generalize the text
  • text (string, optional):
    • In vision mode: User's request or question about the image (e.g., "Describe this image", "Extract text from this image")
    • In display mode: Caption to display with the image (appears above the image in the message box)
    • In generate mode: Text prompt describing the desired image content, style, and composition (supports Chinese and English, max 800 characters)

Examples

Example for vision - Describe an image at image.png:

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">vision</parameter>
<parameter name="text">Describe this image</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">image.png</parameter>

Example for vision - Extract text from image image.jpeg:

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">vision</parameter>
<parameter name="text">Get words in this image</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">image.jpeg</parameter>

Example for vision - How many birds in image image.png:

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">vision</parameter>
<parameter name="text">How many birds in image?</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">image.png</parameter>

Example for display - Display image at image.png with title "The image":

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">display</parameter>
<parameter name="text">The image</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">image.png</parameter>

Example for display - Display image at image.png:

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">display</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">image.png</parameter>

Example for generate - Create an image of a cute orange cat:

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">generate</parameter>
<parameter name="text">A sitting orange cat with happy expression</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">sitting_orange_cat.png</parameter>

Example for generate - Create a landscape painting:

<tool>image</tool>
<parameter name="mode">generate</parameter>
<parameter name="text">A beautiful sunset over mountains in oil painting style</parameter>
<parameter name="image_path">sunset_painting_style.png</parameter>

Important Rules

  1. ALWAYS use image tool - Never attempt direct LLM API calls
  2. Absolute paths only - Convert all paths to absolute before calling
  3. Keep text unchanged in generate mode - Do not change the text when generating image

Frequently asked questions

What does the Image AI skill do?

Unified tool for analyzing and displaying images (vision analysis and image display).

Why use Image on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Image is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Image in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/PhyAgentOS/PhyAgentOS-core/tree/main/PhyAgentOS/skills/image. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Image?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Image?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Image with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Image AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by PhyAgentOS under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
