Christmas Pet Card

Candy gloss, but make it merry. Checklist, then go. I like turning a clear pet photo into a close-up Christmas card with a Santa hat. **floor notes:** tips from me: - use one clear photo with the face visible - keep the default 3:4 portrait ratio - choose 1:1 for a square Christmas card - pick 9:16 for a taller vertical greeting Post the Christmas pet card you make. I want to see the fur and the hat.

# Christmas Pet Card

Dress your furry friend for the holidays. A photorealistic Christmas greeting card with a Santa hat, sparkling lights, presents and winter scenery, while keeping your pet's unique look.

## When to use

- The user wants their pet photo turned into a Christmas greeting card (Santa-hat pet portrait, festive holiday pet card)
- A variation on a previous result: 1:1

Not for: Video output (use a video skill).

## Inputs and gates

| Input | Required | Default | Gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Photo | Yes | — | One adult with the face clearly visible. Ask for another photo if the face is tiny, blurred, heavily covered or in profile |
| Ratio | No | `3:4 default` | 3:4 default; 1:1, 2:3, 9:16, 16:9 on request |

- If the person may be under 18, stop and decline politely. Real-person photos must be of adults the user has the right to use.
- Fashion, dark and horror themes are fine as stills; refuse explicit sexual content and anything sexualizing minors.

## Steps

1. Read `references/image-edit.md` for prompt structure.
2. **Identity read**: `recognize_image(image_url=<photo>, prompt='Describe this adult for identity preservation: face shape, eye shape and color, brows, nose, lips, skin tone, apparent age range, hair color and length, distinctive marks, glasses. One compact line.')`.
3. **Generate**: `generate_image(prompt=<PROMPT>, input_urls=[photo], model='i2i.hd', orientation='portrait', aspect_ratio='3:4', name='Christmas Pet Card', entity_type='skill_generation')`. Merge the user's details and options into the template.
4. **Self-check, one retry**: look at the result. If a person photo was used and the face no longer reads as the same person, regenerate with the identity clause first. If someone glancing at it would not instantly see the intended change (it reads as a light filter, the old clothes or background remain, or the style is faint), regenerate once with the change described bigger and more concretely.
5. Reply in one or two sentences, e.g. "All set. Your christmas pet card is on the canvas. Next I can do 1:1." Results appear on the canvas; never paste URLs.

## Prompt templates

**PROMPT**

```text
The same adult from the reference: <identity line>. Same face structure, eyes, skin tone and recognizable likeness; no beautification or face reshaping. Intentional changes: an adorable Christmas greeting card of the same pet wearing a Santa hat and festive accessories, sparkling lights, decorated tree, presents and magical winter scenery, photorealistic holiday card with beautiful festive lettering, preserve the pet's unique appearance. <user details and options>. Apply the style to the entire frame with its signature traits (medium, texture, palette, linework); the person stays recognizable under the style. Lighting and materials described concretely; composition suited to portrait 3:4. Photoreal unless the style says otherwise, fully clothed, no text unless requested.
```

Quality bar: Name the style's visual traits (medium, brushwork or render, palette, line quality) and apply them to the whole frame; keep the face's likeness readable under the style.

## Failure handling

- `success=false`: say what failed in one sentence; retry once only if transient; never invent links.
- The face changes: regenerate once with the identity clause first; then say so honestly.

## Examples

**Default**: the user says "this one" with a photo. Use ratio `3:4 default`, 3:4. Reply: "All set. Your christmas pet card is on the canvas."
**Variation**: "next variation". Keep the same inputs and change one option (1:1).
**Missing input**: no photo was sent. Ask: "Drop in one photo of yourself (face clearly visible) to get started."
