Currently, the 'read_file' tool supports text, images, audio, and PDF. Adding native support for video files (e.g., MP4, WebM) would significantly enhance the agent's multi-modal capabilities.

Use Case: When working on game development or web applications, agents often need to analyze recorded gameplay or UI animations. Currently, we have to manually extract frames using FFmpeg to 'see' the video content. Native support in 'read_file' would streamline this workflow.
