# Informational image age ratings

An image assessor examines visible content while a deterministic runtime normalizes the request, resolves the selected systems, and validates the result. The default covers MPA, PEGI, EIRIN, CERO, and IMDA; callers can select systems, cause reporting, and supported summary options.

Package version: 0.1.0-beta.6.

Included with [Faye Image Utility](/plugins/faye-image-utility/).

## When to use

Use this only for an explicitly requested informational image rating estimate, with the literal ` $faye-image-age-rating ` in the request.

## What to provide

- The images and an explicit ` $faye-image-age-rating ` invocation.
- Any reliable medium or intended-use context, selected rating systems if you do not want all five, and desired cause or summary options.

## Expected results

- Strict JSON with stable identifiers, system display labels, rating estimates, visible causes, and stated limitations.
- Optional concise summaries in the supported output modes, after the result passes contract validation.

## Example requests

### Try this request

#### Codex

```
$faye-image-age-rating Estimate these images across MPA and PEGI. Return validated JSON with all visible causes and note any uncertainty; treat the results as informational estimates.
```

#### Grok

```
/faye-image-age-rating
Use $faye-image-age-rating to estimate these images across MPA and PEGI. Return validated JSON with all visible causes and note any uncertainty; treat the results as informational estimates.
```

#### Antigravity

```
/faye-image-age-rating
Use $faye-image-age-rating to estimate these images across MPA and PEGI. Return validated JSON with all visible causes and note any uncertainty; treat the results as informational estimates.
```

## Requirements

- Only an explicit ` $faye-image-age-rating ` mention activates the skill.
- The bundled ` faye_image_assessor ` and the parent-operated Python validator must be available.
- Python 3.10 or newer with ` venv/ensurepip `.
- Pillow 12.3.0 or newer with LittleCMS2, accessed through the plugin’s Python launcher. Locked wheels are installed in the project-local environment.
- ` FAYE_WORKSPACE_ROOT ` identifies the project for runtime setup and local-image preflight.

## Scope and limitations

- These are not official ratings, certification, legal conclusions, moderation decisions, or viewer age verification.
- Contract validation checks the output's structure and consistency, not the correctness of a visual judgment.
- Focused cause reporting does not narrow the rating basis. PEGI interactive risks need visible interface evidence or reliable caller context.
