Human Auth: Photo Album

Use this when an app needs the user to select photos from their personal album on Human Phone.

When to Trigger

• App opens a photo picker (gallery, media selector).
• User asks to send/upload "my photos" or "photos from my album".
• Capability Probe detects photos activity.

How to Call

request_human_auth(
  capability: "camera",
  instruction: "Please select [N] photo(s) from your gallery for [purpose].",
  uiTemplate: {
    allowPhotoAttachment: true,
    requireArtifactOnApprove: true,
    title: "Photo Selection Needed",
    summary: "Choose photos from your phone gallery."
  }
)

After You Receive the Artifact

Critical: you must redo the app flow. The app's photo picker may still be open or the UI may have changed during the Human Auth wait.

Single Photo

The photo is already pushed to Agent Phone Downloads. The result includes device_path=....

1. Exit current screen state. Press keyevent KEYCODE_BACK until you're back at the screen where the photo was requested.

2. Re-open the picker in the app (tap the attachment button, "Upload", "+", etc.).

3. Navigate to Downloads in the picker and select the openpocket-human-auth-* file.

4. Confirm (tap Send, Done, Upload, etc.).

Multiple Photos (artifact_kind=photos_multi)

1. Read the artifact JSON: read(<artifact_path>) to see the photo array.
2. For each photo, write base64 to a temp file, push to /sdcard/Download/, and trigger media scan.
3. Re-open the picker, navigate to Downloads, and select all pushed files.

Tips

• After pressing Back, verify you're at the right screen before re-opening the picker.
• Some apps show a photo grid — look for "Downloads" or "Recent" folder in the picker.
