  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads computer vision automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Computer Vision

Overview

Computer vision enables machines to understand visual information from images and videos, powering applications like autonomous driving, medical imaging, and surveillance.

When to Use

  • Image classification and object recognition tasks
  • Object detection and localization in images
  • Semantic or instance segmentation projects
  • Pose estimation and human activity recognition
  • Face recognition and biometric systems
  • Medical imaging analysis and diagnostics

Computer Vision Tasks

  • Image Classification: Categorizing images into classes
  • Object Detection: Locating and classifying objects in images
  • Semantic Segmentation: Pixel-level classification
  • Instance Segmentation: Detecting individual object instances
  • Pose Estimation: Identifying human body joints
  • Face Recognition: Identifying individuals in images

Popular Architectures

  • Classification: ResNet, VGG, EfficientNet, Vision Transformer
  • Detection: YOLO, Faster R-CNN, SSD, RetinaNet
  • Segmentation: U-Net, DeepLab, Mask R-CNN
  • Pose: OpenPose, PoseNet, HRNet

FAQ

What does the computer vision skill do?

Implement computer vision tasks including image classification, object detection, segmentation, and pose estimation using PyTorch and TensorFlow

How do I install computer vision?

Run npx skills add https://github.com/aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts --skill computer-vision in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/computer-vision/ (personal) or .claude/skills/computer-vision/ (project).

Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.

Is computer vision safe to install?

No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.

Who maintains computer vision?

It is published by aj-geddes in aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts. It has 499 recorded installs.

This skill should be used when the user wants to "publish an agent", "publish my ADK agent", "register an agent with Gemini", "publish to Gemini" (formerly Gemini Enterprise), or needs guidance on the agents-cli publish gemini command. Also use when the user wants to "manage agents in Agent Registry", "list/update/delete registered agents", or "register an MCP server". Covers ADK vs A2A registration modes, programmatic and interactive usage, flag reference, auto-detection from deployment metadata, Agent Registry fleet management, and troubleshooting.

Covers eval metrics, dataset schema, LLM-as-judge scoring, and common failure causes. Applies to any agents-cli project, whatever framework the agent is written in.

prime-skills/runcomfy-agent-skills

Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Build a Codex-compatible Codex Pet spritesheet.webp + pet.json from a single reference image, drop it into ${CODEXHOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/ / and Codex picks it up as a custom Codex Pet next to the 8 built-ins. This skill produces the exact Codex Pet atlas Codex expects (1536x1872 PNG/WebP, 8 cols x 9 rows, 192x208 cells, 9 animation states — idle, running-right, running-left, waving, jumping, failed, waiting, running, review). Calls OpenAI GPT Image 2 edit ONCE via the local RunComfy CLI as runcomfy run openai/gpt-image-2/edit to produce a canonical Codex Pet pose, then assembles all 9 animation rows programmatically with ImageMagick micro-transforms — no Codex Pro, no $imagegen, no OPENAIAPIKEY required, only RUNCOMFYTOKEN. Triggers on "codex pet", "create codex pet", "make codex pet", "hatch codex pet", "/hatch image", "desktop pet codex", "codex pets", "spritesheet.webp", or any explicit ask to build a custom pet for OpenAI Codex.
