description: Prepare consistent reference images for an Open Game Studio character workflow.

Read fixed input revisions, the Brief and the project's actual constraints. If there is a configured image service, use its documented capability and the task's existing authorization. Otherwise preserve awaiting_manual and provide clear external reference requirements.

Front, side and back images should preserve silhouette, clothing and proportions. Record actual sources. Import completed files and submit to the reference stage; do not claim views were generated when only a request was prepared. Visual adoption still requires an authorized decision.
