The central challenge is one of perception: tools mostly serve to expose visual evidence, reasoning over that evidence stays in language, and most targets are ones a human could in principle determine by inspection. Some visual questions, however, are not bottlenecked by perception: recovering their answers requires executing a multi-step visual algorithm over the pixels. On such questions a model often names the correct algorithm at once yet still answers wrong, because language can describe an algorithm without being able to run one. Code-with-Image crosses that line: given nothing but a Python interpreter, the model must implement a genuine visual algorithm in code to solve the task; the program itself becomes the reasoning. The bottleneck then shifts from executing code to deciding which algorithm to implement. So we let the model teach itself: a training-free reflection loop studies its own failed programs, tests repairs against constructive ground truth, and keeps what survives as portable skills. On our Code-with-Image Bench (CwI-Bench), thirty task families induced by hidden visual computations with disjoint learning and evaluation splits, even GPT-5.6-luna stays below 30% with tool-free chain of thought; given a bare interpreter it reaches 43%, and with skills evolved through its own executable reflection, 67%. The open 27B model climbs the same ladder (9% $\rightarrow$ 33% $\rightarrow$ 56%), and the skills are plain text, transferable across scales and families. When code carries the reasoning, debugging code becomes debugging reasoning.
