中文说明 → docs/README.zh-CN.md
What this does
Some AI models (like DeepSeek) can read your files, but they cannot see pictures.
Screenshots of errors, UI mockups, charts — invisible to them.
This small tool gives them "eyes". Once installed, whenever the model tries to read a
picture, the tool sends it to a vision service of your choice (Moonshot, OpenRouter,
SiliconFlow, Ollama …), receives a detailed text description, and hands it to the model —
as if the model could see the picture.
Model reads screenshot.png
→ the tool intercepts the read
→ picture → vision service → detailed text description comes back
→ the model receives: "[Vision of screenshot.png]: <description>"
→ the model answers from the description
No model settings to change, no config files to write — it works automatically after a
one-time setup. One command to install, one command to remove. MIT licensed.
Who this is for
You use a text-only model (such as DeepSeek) in any AI coding agent or IDE and want it
to understand pictures: error screenshots, UI mockups, charts, photos of notes. Pick your
tool in the install wizard below — there is a one-command install
for every supported agent, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, VS Code,
OpenCode, Trae, Qwen Code, and 14 more.
Before you start (what you need)
- Node.js 18 or newer — check with
node -v. Not installed? Get it at
https://nodejs.org. - An account at a vision service, plus its API key — a vision service is the "eyes
provider": a website that looks at pictures for you. Cloud options: Moonshot,
OpenRouter, MiniMax, Zhipu GLM, StepFun, OpenCode Zen, SiliconFlow, DashScope. Free
local options (run on your own computer): Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM, LM Studio. The API
key is a secret code from that service (usually under "API keys"); the installer asks
for it once and stores it only on your computer. - Your AI agent installed — any of the supported ones below.
Quick install wizard
Open a terminal in your project folder and run:
cd path/to/your/project
npx deepseek-vl-support@latest install
That's the whole install — the wizard auto-detects the agents on your machine and asks 7
short questions. Almost every question has a sensible default: just press Enter. The
two that matter: which agents should get vision (pre-selected) and which vision service +
API key to use (choose Decide later, the last option, if you want to sort that out
afterwards).
When it finishes, restart your session — the installer prints this reminder, and it is
required for the effect to kick in. Optional check:
npx deepseek-vl-support@latest doctor # look for [OK]
Re-running on the same project? It asks whether to keep your current settings — Enter
keeps them.
No terminal? Ask your agent to install it. If you use a tool that supports the Agent
Plugins standard (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Kiro, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, VS Code, ChatGPT &
Codex, Grok Bot, NanoClaw, and other spec-compliant agents), just say in the conversation:
Install the plugin from https://github.com/limccn/deepseek-vl-support and enable it
After a GitHub install, configure the vision endpoint once withnpx deepseek-vl-support@latest install --target <your agent> (or environment variables —
see Changing settings).

| Trae | trae |
| Pi Coding Agent | pi |
| Oh My Pi | omp |
| DeepSeek Harness | dsh |
| Qwen Code | qwen |
| Reasonix | reasonix |
| Kilo Code | kilo |
| WorkBuddy (CodeBuddy Code) | workbuddy |
| Devin | devin |
| GitHub Copilot | copilot |
| Cursor | cursor |
| Kiro | kiro |
| OpenClaw | openclaw |
| Hermes Agent | hermes |
| VS Code | vscode |

Try it out
Fastest check — describe a picture directly in the terminal:
npx deepseek-vl-support@latest describe path/to/a/picture.png
A good text description comes back → everything is wired up. From then on, just read
pictures in your agent as usual — the description arrives automatically.
Choosing a vision service

you configure manually:
| Service | base URL | Example model |

| Moonshot | https://api.moonshot.cn/v1 |
moonshot-v1-32k-vision-preview |
| OpenRouter | https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 |

Everyday commands
| What you want | Command |
|---|---|
| Install | npx deepseek-vl-support@latest install |
| Health check | npx deepseek-vl-support@latest doctor |
| Describe a picture now | npx deepseek-vl-support@latest describe picture.png |
| See current settings | npx deepseek-vl-support@latest config get |
| Change a setting | npx deepseek-vl-support@latest config set maxBytes 5242880 |
| Remove the tool | npx deepseek-vl-support@latest uninstall |
Changing settings
Your answers are saved in .deepseek-vl/config.json inside the project folder — usually
you never need to touch it. The two settings worth knowing:
| Setting | Meaning | Default |
|---|---|---|
maxBytes |
Pictures bigger than this are skipped (saves time and money) | 10485760 (10 MB) |
timeoutMs |
How long to wait for one description | 120000 (2 minutes) |
Example — skip pictures over 5 MB:
npx deepseek-vl-support@latest config set maxBytes 5242880
Describing the same picture twice is free: results are cached on your machine (64 MB
limit). Change the picture and it gets described again. Everything can also be set with
environment variables (VISION_MODEL, VISION_BASE_URL, …) — see
CLAUDE.md for the full reference.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | What to do |
|---|---|
| The model still doesn't describe pictures | Restart the session (required after install), then run … doctor and look for [OK]. |
doctor says no model configured |
You chose Decide later during install. Configure a model now: config set model <id> (plus config set baseUrl <url> if not using the default). |
doctor shows "unreachable" / no [OK] |
The service address or key is wrong — check the base URL ends with /v1 and the API key is correct. |
| "image too large" hint | Compress or crop the picture (e.g. under 5 MB, long side ~2000 px), or raise the limit with config set maxBytes …. |
| Descriptions are slow | Lower the limit or switch to a faster service (see the table above). |
| Pasted (Ctrl+V) pictures are not described | Pasted images bypass the read path — save the picture as a file first, then read it (or use /vision / describe_image). |
More edge cases (Windows encoding, Codex-specific quirks, reasoning-model notes) live in
CLAUDE.md and docs/README.zh-CN.md.
