Bug Description

<!-- A clear and concise description of the bug -->
Let me try a different approach by examining the
screenshots directly:

⏺ Read(local_screenshots/continuous_0000_20250718_175316.pn
g)
⎿ Read image (34.2KB)
⎿ API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid
_request_error","message":"Could not process image"}}

Steps to Reproduce

  1. <!-- First step --> just try to read an image
  2. <!-- Second step --> it never returns from this.
  3. <!-- And so on... -->

Expected Behavior

<!-- What you expected to happen --> It should process the image, I have tried both jpg and png, same result.

Actual Behavior

<!-- What actually happened --> It will repeat this error regardless of what you ask it next. You cannot /resume a previous conversation, must restart it... loosing context and time.
