Chat Image Agent with Memory

Analyze an image with web search, keeping chat history so follow-ups can reference it.

The source enables history but omits a database. Before running your saved copy, add from agno.db.in_memory import InMemoryDb to its imports and db=InMemoryDb(), inside its Agent(...) constructor. Keep the existing history settings and reuse the same agent and session across turns. This retains history only for the lifetime of the process; use a persistent database to resume after a restart.
