# jarrodwatts/claude-image-view

> A Claude Code plugin that shows thumbnails of pasted images above the prompt instead of bare [Image #n] tags. Runs locally and requires a terminal supporting the kitty graphics protocol.

## Useful for

- Check which image matches the [Image #1] tag without opening the file separately
- Compare two pasted screenshots by their thumbnails before sending the prompt

## Why it’s here

- 42 stars so far today, about 61 expected by the end of the day.
- The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip.
- The repository is 1 day old and already has 71 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #179.
- About 12 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 7
- Issues and pull requests: 4
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 45 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 1

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
