Create a new Flow character whose portrait (and optionally body) is a REAL PHOTO, not a text description or generation. Both photos become the character's slot-0 (portrait) and slot-1 (body) images directly — Flow's own upload mechanism in its New Character composer, discovered live 2026-07-11 — no image generation call happens for either slot, so resemblance is exact, not "similar style". Boots the on-demand Chrome for this account (~15-30s, longer if body_photo_base64 is also given), same as create_character, no Android/recaptcha involved. photo_base64: raw base64-encoded image bytes, no data: URI prefix — portrait. body_photo_base64: same format, optional — ideally a full-body photo of the same person, for a guaranteed-exact body image (no generation at all for that slot). physical_description: IMPORTANT, look at the photo yourself and write this — a detailed physical description (build, hair color/style, eye color, clothing, distinguishing features), similar in spirit to: "Adult male, mid-20s, ~180cm, lean build. Medium-brown wavy hair, light blue-grey eyes, faint stubble. Wears a dark grey hoodie, dark jeans, white sneakers." This gets saved into the same "Character Info" field as Flow's own UI. CORRECTED same day as this tool was first built: an earlier version of this doc claimed body/multi-view generation can never stay consistent with a photo-seeded portrait — WRONG, confirmed live. The actual missing ingredient was this detailed text spec — with it, both generate_character_turnaround and generate_character_expression_sheet below produce genuinely consistent, on-model results (reproduced live against Flow's real UI, not just guessed). Skip this only for a bare portrait-only character with no further generation planned. Next step after you have entity_id: update_character for a display name, then generate_character_turnaround / generate_character_expression_sheet if you want those (skip if you already passed body_photo_base64 for an exact body photo — generating over it would replace the real photo with a generated approximation). Fidelity note added 2026-07-11 (later same day): "genuinely consistent" above means consistent WITH ITSELF across panels (same invented-looking person in every view), not necessarily an exact match to the real person's face — real-world feedback was "I don't recognize myself." Good for stylized/invented character sheets; if the goal is content that's recognizably the actual person, use generate_video_with_reference (r2v) instead, which conditions on the real photo's pixels rather than a description. name: optional, added 2026-07-25 — give the character a short human-readable name and it's saved to YOUR list (list_characters()), keyed on the uploaded photo as the identity reference (portrait_media_id). Once named, use generate_with_face(character=name, prompt=...) for further images instead of tracking portrait_media_id yourself. Must be unique among your own characters; a clash does NOT fail the call — the character is still created in Flow, just reported back with a `registration_error` instead of a `name` in the result, so pick a different name and register it yourself later if that happens.
