# Images, PDFs and file attachments as input (`context.attachments`)

Feedback Bench, coding agents, built 2026-10-19, window 2026-08-31 to 2026-10-18. Web page: https://feedbackbench.com/coding-agents/#/criterion/context.attachments

Area: [Instructing and context](https://feedbackbench.com/coding-agents/criteria/context.md)

**Definition.** Whether attached images, screenshots, PDFs and other files are accepted and read.

**Boundary.** Not this: see [Computer use and browser control](https://feedbackbench.com/coding-agents/criteria/work.computer_browser_use.md) for screen control.

Rated user-weeks, all agents: 280. Complaint share: 64%.

## The brief

Written by large language models from this page's numbers and the posts it quotes, then checked: every number in the text is in the build. Interpretation, not measurement.

Claude Code and OpenAI Codex read attached files best. Users say they take in PDFs, screenshots and pasted images and work from them. This matters little to most users: it is the 61st most rated of 63 criteria. Google Antigravity ranks low, 4th of 4. Its users rate file input 2.29 times as often as other users, and they write 26% of the category's complaints here.

### What separates the best from the rest

Users of Claude Code and OpenAI Codex say files go in and get used. The agent pulls content out of a folder of PDFs, and it reads pasted screenshots and design images. Google Antigravity users say files will not go in. Documents open as binary, Markdown and HTML files cannot be dragged into the prompt, and video is refused. Caps also limit how many images it takes at once and how large a PDF can be. Google Antigravity has 7 praise to 46 complaint user-weeks.

## How it breaks

Rule: A separate pass sorts complaints into failure modes. For each criterion with at least 30 complaining user-weeks, a large language model reads 150 complaint posts drawn at random and names 4 to 8 failure modes; a second large language model then puts every complaint post on that criterion in one mode, or in Other when it fits none. Modes are fixed once named, and new posts are sorted into them each week. A mode counts distinct user-weeks with a complaint in it, per agent; across agents, one user-week per agent. Modes do not change the labels or the Feedback Score. Examples: up to 3 posts per mode from different users, chosen and checked as receipts are.

The largest failure is drag-and-drop or upload that does nothing or breaks. It makes up 20% of complaining user-weeks and comes from Google Antigravity, Claude Code and Cursor users. Two failures belong mostly to one agent. Google Antigravity accounts for 59% of complaints about file types being refused outright. OpenAI Codex accounts for 46% of complaints about models misreading an image they did receive.

178 complaining user-weeks.

| Failure mode | User-weeks | Posts | Agents (user-weeks) | Definition |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Drag-and-drop or upload of files fails | 36 | 36 | Google Antigravity 12, Claude Code 9, Cursor 6, OpenAI Codex 4, OpenCode 4, Amp 1 | Dragging, dropping, picking or uploading a file into the chat does nothing, hangs, errors, or works only intermittently, even though the product claims to support it; this excludes file types the product never claims to accept. |
| Poor understanding of attached visuals | 28 | 30 | OpenAI Codex 13, Claude Code 9, Google Antigravity 2, OpenCode 2, Cline 1, Cursor 1 | The model reads the image or document but gets it wrong: it hallucinates objects, misreads text, misses visual bugs, or infers instead of transcribing from PDFs and tables; this excludes cases where the content never reached the model. |
| Attachment type not accepted | 27 | 31 | Google Antigravity 16, OpenCode 5, OpenAI Codex 2, Pi 2, Claude Code 1, Zed 1 | The product refuses whole input kinds the user needs, such as video, audio, PDF, SVG, zip, markdown/HTML, plain-text extensions or linked cloud documents, or turns them into a crude substitute like extracted frames or text; it excludes cases where the type is supported but the upload breaks. |
| Clipboard image paste unsupported or broken | 27 | 32 | OpenAI Codex 8, Google Antigravity 7, Claude Code 5, Pi 3, OpenCode 2, Conductor 1, GitHub Copilot 1 | The user cannot paste a screenshot or image from the clipboard into the prompt (common in terminal, CLI, remote or container setups), and has to save the file and type its path; drag-and-drop failures and file-picker gaps are not included here. |
| Selected model or route lacks vision | 20 | 20 | Factory 5, OpenAI Codex 4, OpenCode 4, Cline 3, Kiro 2, Google Antigravity 1, Pi 1 | Images are rejected or ignored because the chosen model, provider route or harness integration has no multimodal input enabled, even when the underlying model or API supports it; this excludes models that accept images but read them poorly. |
| Attachment size, count and resolution limits | 16 | 16 | Google Antigravity 4, Claude Code 4, OpenAI Codex 3, OpenCode 3, Cline 1, Devin 1 | Hard caps on file size, number of images per message or request, or forced downscaling and compression block or degrade the input, including errors on large PDFs or images; this excludes token waste from resending attachments. |
| Attached content silently not read | 8 | 8 | OpenAI Codex 4, Google Antigravity 2, GitHub Copilot 1, OpenCode 1 | The attachment looks accepted and linked, but the model never actually reads it (unread PDFs, zipped documents, linked chats, files visible but not readable to the model), and it may answer as though it had; this excludes misreading content it did read. |
| Attachments resent and bloating context | 5 | 5 | OpenAI Codex 2, Cursor 2, OpenCode 1 | Images or documents already in the conversation are sent again with every request or re-read each turn, which burns quota, fills the context window and causes errors or stalled sessions. |
| Other | 14 | 14 | Claude Code 7, Google Antigravity 3, OpenAI Codex 3, GitHub Copilot 1 | Complaints that fit none of the modes above. |

#### Selected model or route lacks vision

- Cline, 2026-10-09, r/CLine (Reddit): “how binding is your cline pass subscription to deepseek harness? i tried to use deepseek harness with the cline api but it doesn't accept images, so it wasn't useful for me. does it accept images for you?” [source](https://www.reddit.com/r/CLine/comments/1x0pfqy/cline_vs_deepseek_harness/pewodfn/)

- OpenAI Codex, 2026-09-20, r/codex (Reddit): “i've attached a zip with 50 research documents inside it... astra 6 pro answered in less than a minute. it didnt even analyze any of the documents. it wasted so many weekly messages just to repeat the same thing to analyze. then in the end it just answer "you were right. the previous response did not analyze the supplied documents deeply enough."... deeply enough right... not even analyze anything.” [source](https://www.reddit.com/r/codex/comments/1wlj35d/my_ai_has_developed_autism/pazyyrj/)

## Top requests

What users ask to add or change, most asked first. 146 user-weeks ask for something. Requests do not change the Feedback Score. Rule: A separate pass by a large language model reads every counted post and extracts what the user asks the agent or its vendor to add or change, with the criteria it maps to and a short normalised wording; it does not touch the labels or the Feedback Score. A large language model groups the wordings within each criterion (the first criterion the request maps to) into themes, and a second pass merges themes that ask for the same change under different criteria; a merged theme sits under the criterion most of its requests map to, and code counts it once. A theme counts distinct user-weeks that ask for it, per agent; across agents, one user-week per agent. Themes asked in fewer than 2 user-weeks, and requests that share no theme, are not shown. Examples: up to 3 posts per theme from different users, without slurs: whole posts of 60 to 450 characters with at least 8 words beyond handles and links, posts of at most 280 characters first, then the newest.

### 2. Video file input support

- Claude Code, 2026-10-15, @ClaudeDevs (X): “@claudedevs your opus 5.5 model is absolutely incredible for video editing! however, i believe that a more detailed analysis of video footage, similar to what a specialized video analysis tool could provide, would take its capabilities to an even higher level.” [source](https://twitter.com/1643093723289460737/status/2110717087492505885)

### 5. Built-in PDF viewer

- Google Antigravity, 2026-10-14, @antigravity (X): “i need the @antigravity team to add support for viewing pdf and docx files in version 2.0. opening a document and only seeing unreadable binary code is a headache.” [source](https://twitter.com/2098008889190973445/status/2110383049469026473)

## Posts

Receipts rule: Up to 5 praise and 5 complaint posts per area and 3 per criterion. Each is a whole post of 60 to 450 characters (700 for areas) with at least 8 words beyond handles and links, that judges the criterion, whose labels are all praise or all complaint, and that contains no slur. Posts that touch the fewest criteria come first, then posts of at most 280 characters, then the newest. A second large language model reads the first 3 candidates per slot and keeps a post only if it clearly praises, or clearly complains about, the agent on that criterion. Links and personal details removed by the source show as marks such as [link].
