Before you paste
Attach permitted reference images with clear catalog IDs and a separate image labeled QUERY. Include only ordinary objects and remove private background details.
Your prompt
Compare the attached QUERY image with the attached labeled reference images. Use the supplied catalog IDs exactly. Return query | candidate IDs | supporting visible features | contradictions | EXACT / POSSIBLE / UNKNOWN | next view needed. Distinguish the same object from a similar design. Color alone is not enough when shape, handle, markings or proportions differ. Do not infer hidden brand labels, price, authenticity, material grade or unseen specifications. If the distinguishing feature is cropped or obscured, retain uncertainty and request the smallest useful additional view. Do not add new catalog IDs or change inventory counts.Copy, paste, and create. Outputs can vary by model and settings.
