[synthesis] Model fails to map visual elements to tool parameters accurately

When passing images for tool calling to Claude, include a text instruction detailing the spatial or logical mapping expected. GPT-4o can infer this mapping directly from the image with less text bridging.

Journey Context:
While both are multimodal, GPT-4o's vision-to-action pipeline is more tightly coupled for direct parameter extraction. Claude's vision model sometimes detaches the visual reasoning from the tool parameter generation, leading to dropped or misaligned arguments unless the text prompt explicitly bridges the gap between the visual elements and the tool schema.
