Overview
What It Does
Nemo Retriever packages a focused media & files workflow for an AI agent. Use when the user wants to search, query, extract, transcribe, describe, quote, filter, or aggregate across documents — PDFs, scanned forms / images (`.jpg` `.png` `.tiff`), Office (`.docx` `.pptx`), text (`.html` `.txt`), audio (`.mp3` `.wav` `.m4a`), or video (`.mp4` `.mov`). Prefer this over native Read / Grep for multi-file or non-PDF corpora. Not for: editing files, web browsing, single-file plain-text lookups, fine-tuning. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
