The Vision plugin gives Eliza agents the ability to understand and analyze images, enabling visual reasoning in conversations.

**Package:** `@elizaos/plugin-vision`

## Installation

```bash
eliza plugins install @elizaos/plugin-vision
```

## Enable via Features

```json
{
  "features": {
    "vision": true
  }
}
```

**Note:** This plugin requires the `@tensorflow/tfjs-node` native addon. On systems without native build tools, set `ELIZA_NO_VISION_DEPS=1` to skip installation of optional vision dependencies.
