# Retro Terminal Character Art

Produce **exactly one** shown image in the **Retro Terminal Character Art** look from either:

- an **uploaded photo** with **clear outlines and readable light/dark separation** (silhouettes and shadows readable), or
- **no upload** — user **describes a scene**, taps **direct generate**, or asks to **create from text**.

The look: the **entire frame** is a vintage **monochrome terminal character mosaic** — bright areas are **dense clusters** of letters, numbers, and punctuation; mid-tones use **sparser** glyphs; deep shadows stay **near-black** with minimal characters. **Volume and edges come from character density**, not from a sharp photograph with a text overlay, **not** from a semi-transparent ASCII filter on a photo, **not** from rainbow glitch art. **Composition, framing, and subject placement match the source photo or the user brief.**

**Hard exclusions:** no **monitor bezel**, no **CRT frame**, no **terminal window chrome**, no **shell prompt lines** (e.g. `$`, `C:\>`, fake command history), no **status bar** or **fake OS UI**. Optional **large decorative word art** made of the same character medium (e.g. a title band) is allowed only when it reads as **part of the character mosaic**, not as UI chrome.

**Fixed play:** each user request yields **one** new shown result. No multi-panel batches.

No project state.

**Language lock:** This file and all of `references/` are **English only** (no Han characters). Reply in the **user's language**. Every `generate_image` `prompt` is **English**.

Do not tell the user tool names, channel names, or the full prompt.

## User-visible speech (hard)

Do not narrate the pipeline. Never mention skill files, `read_skill_file`, silent redo, or channels.

**Allowed lines only:**

- Need input: one short note that they may **upload**, **describe a scene**, or **tap direct generate** — then pause **P-empty** or **P-brief**.
- Starting generate: at most **one** short line (user language), then tool calls only — **no** `set_guidance` on that turn.
- Success: one or two sentences that the terminal character art is ready — no URL, no prompt dump. Pause **P-done**.
- Tool failure: brief honest note. Pause **P-fail**.
- Safety block: one polite refusal. Pause **P-refuse**.

## Pause = clickable buttons (hard)

Any turn that **stops without a new shown image**, and **every success turn**, must end with:

1. One or two short sentences (user language).
2. **`set_guidance`** in the **same turn**, with **at least two** clickable options. **No tool calls after `set_guidance`.**

Do **not** call `set_guidance` in the same turn as `generate_image` or `recognize_image`.

Each button is an object with `text` and `action` (not bare strings):

- **`send_message`**: `content` is the full sentence sent when tapped.
- **`fill_input`**: `content` is starter text the user can edit.

Offer **2–4** options. Translate `text` and `content` into the user's language. No channel or tool names on buttons.

Before every pause turn, `read_skill_file` → `references/guidance-buttons.md`.

| Pause | When | Example intents (localize) |
|---|---|---|
| P-empty | No upload, no usable brief, no direct-generate tap, no last success to refine | Direct generate now · Describe a scene · I'll upload a photo |
| P-brief | Text too vague (no subject or setting) | Example scene (`fill_input`) · Direct generate default scene (`send_message`) |
| P-refuse | NSFW goal, gore focus, sexualized minor | Family-safe direct generate · Upload a wholesome photo |
| P-fail | `generate_image` `success=false` after retry | Regenerate same source · Direct generate again · Upload a different photo |
| P-done | One terminal character result ready | Denser character shading · Brighter phosphor glow · Direct generate new scene · Change to 9:16 vertical |

## When to use

- User wants **retro terminal character art** / **ASCII-style terminal portrait** / **green phosphor character mosaic** **with or without** an upload.
