# 80s Toon

Use the packaged runner and exact prompt. Do not call Replicate separately or create another render path.

From the extracted kit's `v3` directory:

```bash
npm install
npm run format:skai-image -- check --format=80s-toon
npm run format:skai-image -- smoke --format=80s-toon
```

Ask one short question:

> Which 3:4 photo should I turn into an 80s Toon, and should I use Nano Banana 2 (default), Lite (economy), or Pro (source-recommended)?

Then initialize the free run. Omit `--model` for Nano Banana 2, or add `--model=nano-banana-2-lite` for economy or `--model=nano-banana-pro` for the source-recommended route:

```bash
npm run format:skai-image -- init --format=80s-toon --run=<id> --input=<absolute-image-path> [--model=<route>]
npm run format:skai-image -- validate --format=80s-toon --run=<id>
npm run format:skai-image -- estimate --format=80s-toon --run=<id>
```

Stop after `estimate` and ask the user to approve the paid prediction. Only after explicit approval should you supply `--approve-paid`:

```bash
npm run format:skai-image -- render --format=80s-toon --run=<id> --approve-paid
npm run format:skai-image -- inspect --format=80s-toon --run=<id>
npm run format:skai-image -- inspect --format=80s-toon --run=<id> --visual-pass --review-notes="<specific observations>"
npm run format:skai-image -- finalize --format=80s-toon --run=<id> --approve-final
```

Hard rules:

- Preserve the exact people, identity, hairstyle, clothing, accessories, colors, proportions, pose, body language, expression, lighting, background, framing, perspective, and composition.
- Use thick bold black outlines, flat solid colors, minimal cel shading, clean geometric shapes, and smooth hand-drawn 2D linework.
- Keep the playful vintage anatomy and classic oval eyes without redesigning or replacing the subject.
- Use slightly desaturated old-cel tones, subtle film grain, and soft retro print texture.
- Avoid realism, 3D rendering, anime, and modern glossy cartoon styling.
- Use a user-approved 3:4 input before validation.
- Keep the exact gathered prompt unless the user explicitly requests a change.
- Use Nano Banana 2 by default, Lite for economy, or Pro for the source-recommended route.
- Validate and estimate before spending, pause for explicit user approval, and never render without `--approve-paid`.
- Persist and resume the prediction id.
- Never exceed three attempts.
- View the output and record specific visual-review notes before finalizing.
- Return the finished image and `quality-report.json` to the user after finalization.
- Never print, store, or commit `REPLICATE_API_TOKEN`.

Transform the exact uploaded image into a full body illustration designed in a 1960s–1980s retro American cartoon style. Preserve the exact subject, facial identity, hairstyle, clothing, accessories, colors, proportions, pose, body language, facial expression, camera angle, framing, composition, perspective, lighting, and every visible detail from the original image. Do not redesign, reinterpret, simplify, replace, or invent any elements. The uploaded image must remain instantly recognizable, changing only the artistic style.

The character should feature exaggerated rubber hose proportions, expressive body language, a slightly oversized head, simplified anatomy, elastic limbs, large classic oval cartoon eyes with simple black pupils, thin expressive eyebrows, rounded hands, clean geometric shapes, and a playful vintage personality while preserving the exact likeness, expression, and silhouette of the original subject.

The illustration features thick bold black outlines, flat solid colors, minimal cel-style shading, subtle vintage film grain texture, slightly desaturated tones like old animation cels, smooth hand-drawn 2D linework, simple color blocking, soft retro print texture, and a classic mid-century American animation aesthetic.

Preserve the original background exactly as shown in the uploaded image unless otherwise specified.

Keep the original composition, framing, perspective, and camera angle exactly the same. Full body should remain visible if it is visible in the original image. High resolution, clean illustration, no realism, no 3D rendering, no anime, no Pixar, no Disney, no modern cartoon style, only authentic 1960s–1980s American retro animation aesthetics.
