Agents automatically handle image files when included in prompts. First validate your image file with Timbal’s File type, then pass it alongside text in a list: 
from timbal import Agent
from timbal.types.file import File

agent = Agent(
    name="VisionAgent",
    model="anthropic/claude-3-7-sonnet-latest",  # Vision-capable model
    model_params={"max_tokens": 256},
    system_prompt="Analyze images and provide detailed descriptions."
)

# Validate multiple image files and analyze
image1 = File.validate("path/to/image1.jpg")
image2 = File.validate("path/to/image2.png")
image3 = File.validate("path/to/image3.jpeg")

result = await agent(
    prompt=["Analyze these images and provide a description of each one", image1, image2, image3]
).collect()

print(result.output.content[0].text)
Use vision-capable models for image processing. Check Model Capabilities to see which models support image input.
