Key Features:

• 🔍 extract_text_from_image(): General text extraction with formatting preservation
• 📊 analyze_diagram(): Technical diagram and flowchart analysis
• 📋 extract_table_data(): Table extraction in Markdown format
• 📄 analyze_patent_page(): Specialized patent document analysis
• ✍️ identify_handwriting(): Handwritten text recognition
• ✅ is_available(): Model availability checking

Technology Stack:

• LangChain's ChatOllama for vision model integration
• Base64 image encoding for llava compatibility
• Async/await pattern throughout
• Comprehensive error handling and logging

Test Results:

python test_vision_ocr.py
# All tests passed! ✅
# Agent availability - PASSED
# VisionOCRAgent initialized successfully

---

3. Workflow Integration

Modified Files:

A. DocumentAnalysisAgent (/home/mhamdan/SPARKNET/src/agents/scenario1/document_analysis_agent.py)

Changes:

• Added vision_ocr_agent parameter to __init__()
• Created _extract_with_ocr() method (foundation for future PDF→image→OCR pipeline)
• Added TODO comments for full OCR pipeline implementation
• Graceful fallback if OCR agent not available

Integration Points:

def __init__(self, llm_client, memory_agent=None, vision_ocr_agent=None):
    self.vision_ocr_agent = vision_ocr_agent
    # VisionOCRAgent ready for enhanced text extraction

B. SparknetWorkflow (/home/mhamdan/SPARKNET/src/workflow/langgraph_workflow.py)

Changes:

• Added vision_ocr_agent parameter to __init__()
• Updated create_workflow() factory function
• Passes VisionOCRAgent to DocumentAnalysisAgent during execution

Enhanced Logging:

if vision_ocr_agent:
    logger.info("Initialized SparknetWorkflow with VisionOCR support")

C. Backend API (/home/mhamdan/SPARKNET/api/main.py)

Changes:

• Import VisionOCRAgent
• Initialize on startup with availability checking
• Pass to workflow creation
• Graceful degradation if model unavailable

Startup Sequence:

# 1. Initialize VisionOCR agent
vision_ocr = VisionOCRAgent(model_name="llava:7b")

# 2. Check availability
if vision_ocr.is_available():
    app_state["vision_ocr"] = vision_ocr
    logger.success("✅ VisionOCR agent initialized with llava:7b")

# 3. Pass to workflow
app_state["workflow"] = create_workflow(
    llm_client=llm_client,
    vision_ocr_agent=app_state.get("vision_ocr"),
    ...
)

9. Troubleshooting

If OCR not working:

2. Verify llava model:

   CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1 ollama list | grep llava
   # Should show llava:7b
   

3. Test VisionOCRAgent:

   source sparknet/bin/activate && python test_vision_ocr.py
   

4. Check backend logs:

   • Look for: "✅ VisionOCR agent initialized with llava:7b"
   • Warning if model unavailable: "⚠️ llava:7b model not available"

Common Issues:

• Model not found: Run CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1 ollama pull llava:7b
• Import error: Ensure virtual environment activated
• GPU not detected: Check CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES environment variable
