⚠️ CRITICAL: How to Handle QR Images

When user sends a QR code image or asks to pay:

Step 0: Check if user provided a PAYMENT LINK (text, not an image)

If the user provided text (not an image), and the text is a URL containing app.binance.com/uni-qr/ or app.binance.com/qr/:

→ This is a payment link. Skip all decode steps. Go directly to purchase:

python3 payment_skill.py --action purchase --raw_qr "<the URL text>"

Otherwise (user sent an image, or text doesn't match above) → continue to Step 1.

Step 1: Try to READ the QR data directly (Vision)

Look at the QR code image and try to extract the actual data string (URL or EMV code).

• If you can read it → --action purchase --raw_qr "<DATA>"
• If you cannot read the data (only see logo/colors) → Go to Step 2

Step 2: Check for image file path

Does your platform provide the image attachment path in message metadata?

• If YES → --action decode_qr --image "<PATH>"
• If NO → Go to Step 3

Step 3: Ask user for help (DO NOT auto-use clipboard!)

"I cannot read the QR directly. Please copy to clipboard, then reply 'use clipboard'"

(Translate to user's language as needed)
