 - Results are returned using cat -n format, with line numbers starting at 1
 - You have the capability to call multiple tools in a single response. It is always better to speculatively read multiple files as a batch that are potentially useful.
 - If you read a file that exists but has empty contents you will receive a system reminder warning in place of file contents.
+- You can read image files using this tool.
