read_multiple_files

Read and retrieve contents of multiple files simultaneously, including text and images (PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP). Each file's content is returned with its path for reference. Failed reads for individual files do not halt the operation. Works within allowed directories using absolute paths.

Instructions

Read the contents of multiple files simultaneously. Each file's content is returned with its path as a reference. Handles text files normally and renders images as viewable content. Recognized image types: PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP. Failed reads for individual files won't stop the entire operation. Only works within allowed directories. IMPORTANT: Always use absolute paths (starting with '/' or drive letter like 'C:\') for reliability. Relative paths may fail as they depend on the current working directory. Tilde paths (~/...) might not work in all contexts. Unless the user explicitly asks for relative paths, use absolute paths. This command can be referenced as "DC: ..." or "use Desktop Commander to ..." in your instructions.
