Look At This

Update: The look_at tool has been replaced with a similar view_media tool that can return the raw or cropped/transformed image data to the model in addition to a textual description.

Amp can now look at PDFs, images, and other media files with a goal in mind.

Using the new look_at tool, Amp sends the file to a separate model — one with its own context window — and gets back only the information it requested.

That means the main agent never has to process the full file, saving valuable tokens in the main context window.

To try it, just tell Amp to look at a media file with a purpose, like extracting the structure of a binary file format from the 477-page PDF spec defining it, and watch it distill the relevant bits out of the file.
