Configuring Vision

The user wants to connect an LLM or vision provider, already has an API key, asks "can I use OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini/OpenRouter", wants local Ollama, or needs different cheap and strong models.

What it does

Configuring Vision is an agent skill from oxbshw/watch-skill. The user wants to connect an LLM or vision provider, already has an API key, asks "can I use OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini/OpenRouter", wants local Ollama, or needs different cheap and strong models. Use this to configure provider-neutral visual understanding without tying Watch Skill to one agent or model vendor.

Its SKILL.md is about 510 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 AI & LLM Engineering, covering LLM inference and serving and Model routing and gateways. It works with Ollama, OpenAI, OpenRouter and DeepSeek. The repository describes itself as: Give AI agents eyes, ears, and verifiable results. Watch Skill turns video, audio and screen activity into searchable, timestamped evidence and proves work with deterministic… The licence is MIT.

Requirements

Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f1317c8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash
- Read
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
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

Configuring Vision loads about 509 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 167 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~509

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.

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.

Configuring vision

Watch Skill's agent surface and model backend are separate choices. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw, framework agents, and REST clients all call the same engine; the engine can send selected frames to any supported vision provider.

Supported providers

bash

watch-skill setup-vision --provider anthropic --api-key <KEY>
watch-skill setup-vision --provider openai --api-key <KEY>
watch-skill setup-vision --provider gemini --api-key <KEY>
watch-skill setup-vision --provider openrouter --api-key <KEY>
watch-skill setup-vision --provider ollama

Prefer a key the user already has. Do not claim Ollama is required, and do not ask the user to reveal a secret in chat. They can set the matching environment variable or run the command privately in their terminal.

Route bulk work and verification separately

One model can serve both tiers:

bash

watch-skill setup-vision --provider openai --api-key <KEY> --model <vision-model>

Or use a cheaper model for scene descriptions and a stronger model for uncertain answers and loop critiques:

bash

watch-skill setup-vision --provider openrouter --api-key <KEY> \
  --cheap-model <fast-vision-model> --strong-model <strong-vision-model>

Add --verify to make one live probe call. If it fails, report the structured error and its fix; never echo the key.

No provider is also valid

Without a vision API, Watch Skill still acquires video, reads captions, runs local transcription and OCR, indexes evidence, and searches it. Visual synthesis degrades to timestamped evidence instead of guessing.

Questions about Configuring Vision

What does Configuring Vision do?

The user wants to connect an LLM or vision provider, already has an API key, asks "can I use OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini/OpenRouter", wants local Ollama, or needs different cheap and strong models. Configuring Vision is an agent skill from oxbshw/watch-skill. The user wants to connect an LLM or vision provider, already has an API key, asks "can I use OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini/OpenRouter", wants local Ollama, or needs different cheap and strong models.

When should I use Configuring Vision?

Configuring Vision fits situations like: tasks that involve LLM inference and serving; tasks that involve Model routing and gateways.

How do I install Configuring Vision in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add oxbshw/watch-skill --skill configuring-vision -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/configuring-vision in oxbshw/watch-skill) into .claude/skills/configuring-vision in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Configuring Vision in Codex?

Run `npx skills add oxbshw/watch-skill --skill configuring-vision -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/configuring-vision in oxbshw/watch-skill) into .agents/skills/configuring-vision in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Configuring Vision in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add oxbshw/watch-skill --skill configuring-vision -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/configuring-vision, .gemini/skills/configuring-vision, .github/skills/configuring-vision and .opencode/skills/configuring-vision in your project.

What does Configuring Vision need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Configuring Vision is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Bash, Read.

Does Configuring Vision access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Configuring Vision safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Configuring Vision use?

Configuring Vision is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Configuring Vision use?

About 509 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Configuring Vision?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Configuring Vision: New Provider (finch-xu/cc-router, 272 stars), Quorum (Detrol/quorum-cli, 119 stars), Claudish Usage (MadAppGang/claudish, 1k stars) and Page Agent (Tommy-yw/RunbookHermes, 546 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.

Who maintains Configuring Vision?

oxbshw (a GitHub user) maintains it in oxbshw/watch-skill, which has 469 GitHub stars. The repository holds 10 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on September 14, 2026.
