Hero Studio
Public Made by Adomby adom
The hero-image lab with a human gate: `hero-studio pose <owner/slug>` opens the studio in front of the human, posed for their package, and blocks until they click Generate, producing the provenance-stamped 2000x1250 PNG the registry's hero gate requires. The image carries the title and artwork; the exported image also bakes the type pill (top right) and full wiki slug (bottom right); the page shows the hero bare, and only the homepage marquee overlays its own dynamic info. Every hero wears its P
Seasoned-user mode: waive the 4-checkbox ritual after N completed gates, and allow AI-clicked Generate backed by a recorded human attestation
Requested by John, 2026-08-13, mid-gate on adom/adom-vscode after several poses in one session.
The friction
The verification gate makes the SAME human tick the same 4 checkboxes (title / subtitle / vitrine / page type) and click Generate on every single pose. For a first-time or occasional user that walkthrough is exactly right. For a page owner who has done this many times in a day (or hundreds over a product's life), it reduces the human to a monkey robot clicking 4 boxes whose meaning they internalized long ago. The review still happens, with their eyes, in chat with the driving AI; the clicks are ceremony.
Proposal
Seasoned threshold. After a user has completed N full gates (suggest N = 4, tracked per account), the checklist renders pre-ticked/collapsed with a one-line 'seasoned reviewer' note. The walkthrough stays available but is opt-in.
AI-clicked Generate with attestation. For seasoned users only, allow the driving AI to trigger Generate via the API (e.g. POST /generate {attest: {aiThread, human, quote, ts}}) where is the human's actual approval utterance from the conversation ('ship it', 'looks good, generate'). The attestation is REQUIRED, recorded in the PNG provenance comment alongside renderer/seed, and shown in the gate's Approved banner, so accountability survives: the human still approved with their eyes, the record says who, when, and in what words.
Safety intact. Hard-fail lint findings (text clipped by hero edge etc.) still lock Generate regardless of seasoning; the registry still requires the studio stamp; a bad attested hero is traceable to its attestation and the privilege can be revoked (fall back to full ritual).
This keeps the doctrine's substance, a HUMAN judges the hero, while dropping the part that is pure clicking. Today's session is the motivating example: the human reviewed every iteration live in the studio and in chat, gave verbal verdicts each round, and still has to end each round with 5 manual clicks.
