Image interpreter for automation workflows - local, offline, 8x fewer tokens

pip install farscry
farscry screenshot.png

from farscry import extract, diff, extract_batch

Extract VASP context from an image
vasp = extract("screenshot.png")
print(vasp)

Diff two screenshots
delta = diff("before.png", "after.png")

Batch processing (parallel)
results = extract_batch(["a.png", "b.png", "c.png"])

What it does

farscry converts screenshots into typed, coordinate-rich text that automation workflows can act on - without vision APIs, without API keys, and with 8x fewer tokens than raw image sending.

It speaks VASP (Visual Application State Protocol).
