What it does

Cowart Image Edit is an agent skill from openvetta/open-vetta. Revise a Cowart canvas image from an annotation screenshot using Vetta editimage, then place the result with Cowart MCP. Use when the user submits a Cowart annotation edit or asks to clean up an annotated screenshot into a revised bitmap beside the original.

Its SKILL.md is about 360 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Image editing. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Open-source, local-first AI agent for coding and real work. BYOK models, MCP, skills, plugins, workflows, and private knowledge bases. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user submits a Cowart annotation edit
  • Asks to clean up an annotated screenshot into a revised bitmap beside the original

Example prompts

  • “/cowart-image-edit”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Obtain the annotation screenshot (user attachment or Cowart-exported capture path from the follow-up prompt).
  2. Call edit_image with that screenshot (and original image if available) so the model applies annotated intent and removes annotation chrome…
  3. Place the result with MCP insert_cowart_image beside the original when possible (placement: "right"); do not delete or move the original…
  4. Use projectDir = active user workspace for all Cowart MCP calls.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b983179. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Cowart Image Edit loads about 364 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 149 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~364

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Revise a Cowart canvas image from an annotation screenshot using Vetta edit_image, then place the result with Cowart MCP. Use when the user submits a Cowart annotation edit or asks to clean up an annotated screenshot into a revised bitmap beside the original.

Cowart Image Edit (Vetta)

Vetta image tools (required)

IntentTool
Modify existing image / apply annotation marksedit_image
Brand-new image with no source to revisegenerate_image (use cowart-image-gen skill)

Do not use an imagegen skill. After edit_image writes a file, place it with Cowart MCP insert_cowart_image.

Workflow

  1. Obtain the annotation screenshot (user attachment or Cowart-exported capture path from the follow-up prompt).

  2. Call edit_image with that screenshot (and original image if available) so the model applies annotated intent and removes annotation chrome (arrows, scribbles, labels) unless the user wants them kept.

  3. Place the result with MCP insert_cowart_image beside the original when possible (placement: "right"); do not delete or move the original unless asked.

  4. Use projectDir = active user workspace for all Cowart MCP calls.

Constraints

  • Prefer edit_image for the bitmap step, then Cowart MCP for placement.
  • If selection tools are available, get_cowart_selection can help locate the target image.
