## What Peekaboo Can Do
Peekaboo provides three main tools that give AI agents visual capabilities:
- **`image`** - Capture screenshots of screens or specific applications
- **`analyze`** - Ask AI questions about captured images using vision models
- **`list`** - Enumerate available screens and windows for targeted captures
Each tool is designed to be powerful and flexible. The most powerful feature is visual question answering - agents can ask questions about screenshots like "What do you see in this window?" or "Is the submit button visible?" and get accurate answers. This saves context space since asking specific questions is much more efficient than returning raw image data.
Peekaboo supports both cloud and local vision models, letting you choose between accuracy and privacy.
