<objective>
Headshot / profile-pic / avatar generator. Input: user photo (REQUIRED) + optional style + optional aspect set. Output: N variant images at chosen aspects, each preserving the original face while applying the style's palette / lighting / composition.
Distinct from flyer-maker / carousel-builder:
- Single subject focus (the face). No event details, no narrative split, no embedded text.
- Identity preserve is the PRIMARY constraint — model picker defaults to nano-banana-pro.
- Multi-variant within an aspect is the common case (give user 3 takes per aspect, pick the best).
This skill does NOT:
- Generate avatars from text alone — `--photo` is required (use `image-prompt` for text-only portrait generation).
- Render text overlays (name / handle / title) — avatars are visual only. Add text in your design tool if needed.
- Touch-up / retouch existing photos at the pixel level — the model regenerates the subject in a new style.
- Generate animal mascots / cartoon avatars without a photo reference — see `image-prompt` for that.
- Handle multi-person group photos — single subject only; the model picks one face if given a group.

## ROLE
Read user photo + optional style preference → pick a ref-capable identity-preserving model → assemble per-aspect prompts emphasizing identity preserve + style anchor → batch execute → save N variants per aspect → print paths.
## PIPELINE
1. **Resolve photo** (required):
- `--photo <path-or-url>`: local file or remote UR
