Instructions
Search the web for visual information, download and analyze relevant images, and synthesize findings.
Usage
/imagesearch <query>
/imagesearch majormud color system
/imagesearch "retro BBS door game UI design"
/imagesearch what font does discord use
Workflow
-
WebSearch for the query + relevant visual terms (add "screenshot", "UI", "design", "example" etc. as appropriate)
-
WebFetch promising results to extract:
- Text information about the topic
- Image URLs from markdown
tags
-
Download images to
/tmp/imagesearch-$$using curl:curl -sL "https://example.com/image.png" -o /tmp/imagesearch-$$/image-001.png -
Read the downloaded images to analyze them visually
-
Synthesize findings into actionable information:
- What you learned from text sources
- What you observed in the images
- Implementation recommendations if requested
Tips
- Add visual search terms to queries: "screenshot", "example", "UI", "design", "color palette"
- Prioritize images from documentation, wikis, and official sources
- Skip tiny images (icons, avatars) - look for screenshots and diagrams
- If a site blocks fetching, try alternative sources
- Clean up temp files when done:
rm -rf /tmp/imagesearch-$$/
Image Analysis Focus
When analyzing images, pay attention to:
- Color palettes and hex values
- Typography and font choices
- Layout and spacing patterns
- UI component styles
- Visual hierarchy
- Any text visible in screenshots
Example Session
User: /imagesearch majormud color system
Claude:
1. Searches "majormud color system screenshot ANSI"
2. Fetches wiki pages, finds image URLs
3. Downloads screenshots to /tmp
4. Analyzes the visual style:
- ANSI 16-color palette
- Cyan for system messages
- Yellow for item names
- Red for combat/damage
- etc.
5. Provides implementation recommendations
Limitations
- Some sites block WebFetch (403 errors) - try alternative sources
- Very large images may take time to download
- Can only analyze static images, not videos/animations
- Google Images directly is not accessible (anti-bot) - we find images through regular page content
