Whale-chan Image Character

Create verified Whale-chan PNGs. Preserve Whale-chan's permanent identity while resolving every visual dimension independently from the user's request, typed reference images, and canonical defaults. A custom value changes only its own field.

Workflow: propose → Gate 1: select directions → Gate 2: confirm scope and begin → expand, validate and freeze → generate, review and deliver. Selection alone is not permission to generate.

Load guidance as needed

• Read references/proposal-selection.md before presenting either gate or interpreting replies.
• Read references/assignment-schema.md whenever normalizing, confirming, or freezing a request.
• Read references/character-spec.md before building prompts or deciding whether a requested customization preserves Whale-chan identity.
• Read references/form-profiles.md when resolving or measuring proportions. The five bundled forms are recommended presets, not the only allowed ratios.
• Read references/reference-index.md when selecting bundled or user-supplied references.
• Read references/provider-routing.md before any provider call or parallel run.
• Read references/qa-rubric.md before reviewing or promoting a candidate.
• Read references/gallery.md before exporting the completed task's preview gallery.
• Treat references/reference-catalog.json as the machine-readable authority for bundled paths, hashes, preset ratios, and preset acceptance ranges.

Choose the language

Read references/language-policy.md before planning. Resolve one task language: explicit user instruction → meaningful current-session expression → newest meaningful local session within 24 hours → ask when uncertain. Use scripts/detect-language.py for historical evidence, not as an automatic verdict; recent sessions take precedence over aggregate counts.
