Generate one polished character bust for dialogue UI, character select, lore cards or codex entries.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# character-portrait — Locked Bust for Dialogue UI

This skill produces ONE polished character portrait — bust or shoulders-up framing, neutral or stylized background, designed to drop into a dialogue UI, character-select screen, or lore card. It is the **opposite** of `concept-art`: concept art explores; this skill commits.

The single biggest failure mode is **inconsistency across a cast**. Generating five party members one at a time without a locked anchor produces five images that look like they're from five different games — different lighting, different angle, different palette, different rendering style. This skill makes you write a **locked anchor suffix** the first time and re-use it verbatim for every subsequent portrait.

If the user is still exploring the look, this is the wrong skill — route to `concept-art` first, lock a direction, then come back here. The `asset-strategy` meta-router asks **"Quick check — exploring the look (3-4 variants for art direction) or generating a final character portrait for dialogue UI?"** to disambiguate.

## When to use

- "Generate a portrait for the merchant NPC."
- "I need a character-select image for the four playable heroes."

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add summerengine/summer/character-portrait@sha256:fd6f9c4bd5054578

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.4db10ef, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
