### Your agent looked at the image. **Did it see the truth?**

Evidence-first image reading for AI agents. One call turns any local image into an
**Agent Media Twin** — dimensions, metadata, optional OCR with bounding boxes, and
trust warnings you can cite without asking a vision LLM to guess.
**Iris** is local-first **image evidence** for agents — dimensions, metadata, regions, optional OCR with boxes — **without** a default vision-LLM hallucination loop.

```bash
npx -y @sylphx/iris
```

| | Vision model guess | **Iris** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Reproducible facts | ❌ varies by model | ✅ deterministic media twin |
| Bounding boxes / regions | rare | first-class evidence |
| Cloud API required | often | **no** |
| Setup | keys + SDKs | **zero-config npx** |
| Brand | mixed | `@sylphx/iris` · bin `iris` · **0.2.1** |

**Rust-first** MCP runtime. Missing native → fail closed.

### Why Iris wins for agents

1. **Zero-config** — `npx -y @sylphx/iris` starts MCP on stdio.
2. **Facts over captions** — structure agents can cite, not free-text “I see a chart”.
3. **Local-first** — files never leave the machine by default.
4. **Family** — pair with Citra (PDF), Cue (video), Locus (code).
