Image Engine

This is where you configure your character’s ability to generate images. When someone asks your character to draw something, create a picture, or make a meme, this is the engine that handles it.
Image Engine is a newer feature and may still be evolving. If you find a bug or have feedback, share it in the AurInfer Discord.
How to get here:
Go to your character’s dashboard → left sidebar → click Universal → click Image Engine
The full path is: Universal → Image Engine This section has three sub-pages:
  1. Image Engines — choose which image generation model to use and configure it
  2. Playground — test image generation without needing a live conversation
  3. Character Gallery — browse every image your character has ever generated

Image Engines

Full path: Universal → Image Engine → Image Engines This is the main configuration page. Here you choose your image generation model and set how it generates images.

Playground

Full path: Universal → Image Engine → Playground This is your testing sandbox. You can type a prompt here and generate an image immediately — without needing to go into a real conversation or wait for a user to ask. How to use it:
  1. Navigate to Universal → Image Engine → Playground
  2. Type a description of an image you want to generate (the “prompt”)
  3. Click Generate (or similar button)
  4. See the result instantly
What to use the Playground for:
  • Test whether your model and settings are producing the quality you expect
  • Try different prompt wordings to see what gets the best results
  • Preview your configuration before your character encounters real image requests

Full path: Universal → Image Engine → Character Gallery This page shows every image your character has ever generated across all conversations and platforms (Discord, Bluesky, etc.). Images are displayed in a grid layout. Each image is labeled with:
  • The platform it came from (e.g., Discord)
  • An AI badge showing it was AI-generated
What to use the Gallery for:
  • Review the quality of images being generated in real conversations
  • Find and reference specific images your character has made
  • Identify patterns if the character is generating off-topic or low-quality images
If your character keeps generating weird or off-topic images, look through the Gallery to understand the pattern. Then go to Universal → AI Engine → Advanced Settings → Global Instructions and add a rule like: "Only generate images when the user explicitly asks for one." This helps the character use image generation more appropriately.
