Examples
Single image:
python /mnt/skills/public/describe-image/scripts/describe.py \
-i /home/assistant/document/images/img_001.jpg
With context for better accuracy:
python /mnt/skills/public/describe-image/scripts/describe.py \
-i dashboard.png \
-c "Quarterly sales report showing EMEA region performance"
Folder with images (batch processing):
# Process first 50 images
python /mnt/skills/public/describe-image/scripts/describe.py \
-i /home/assistant/assessment/images/
# Process images 51-100 (page 2)
python /mnt/skills/public/describe-image/scripts/describe.py \
-i /home/assistant/assessment/images/ --page 2
# Process with custom page size
python /mnt/skills/public/describe-image/scripts/describe.py \
-i /home/assistant/assessment/images/ --page-size 100
Output
Single image: Returns structured description to stdout.
Folder: Creates manifest-N.md file in the folder. Use view to read it.
Console output:
Processed 50/150 images
Created: /home/assistant/assessment/images/manifest-1.md
Remaining pages: 2 (use --page 2, --page 3)
Use: view /home/assistant/assessment/images/manifest-1.md
After running the command, use the view tool to read the manifest file.
