Fiber-bundle endoscopy offers a compact and flexible route for clinical fluorescence imaging through natural human orifices, but since its first report in the 1950s, it has remained limited by low spatial resolution, honeycomb artifacts, and inter-core crosstalk. The crosstalk becomes more pronounced at near-infrared-II wavelengths (NIR-II, 1000-3000 nm), a spectral window that offers superior contrast, resolution, and tissue penetration depth for biomedical imaging. Here, we present an AI-powered flexible endoscopy platform that overcomes these constraints through optical-computational co-design: optimizing ultrathin fiber bundles to mitigate crosstalk-induced image blur and enable high-fidelity image transmission across the visible-to-NIR-II spectral range, and developing an Agent-Guided Mixture-of-Experts (GAME) pipeline for honeycomb-artifact removal and image restoration. GAME provides a single restoration entry point for diverse biomedical images acquired with our endoscope, spanning cell, mouse and human samples. It dynamically routes each input to suitable restoration experts via a vision-language model, facilitating image reconstruction with a fourfold resolution improvement beyond the NyquistShannon sampling limit. The utility of our endoscope is demonstrated through in vivo NIR-II imaging of anatomical structures in mice, as well as imaging of the digital micromirror device (DMD)-projected human gastric tube and lymphatic system, paving the way for future clinical translation.
