Agent icons — style guide
Each agent in the agents/ directory can have an icon/avatar declared in the "icon" field of its meta.json. The backend serves the file via GET /api/agents/{id}/icon.
Visual style
Icons were generated with xAI Grok Imagine in a concept art / character design style:
- Style: illustrated, not photorealistic, not flat vector, not anime
- Technique: bold brushstrokes, rich colours, depth, video game concept art quality (Overwatch / Arcane / Hades)
- Format: portrait (vertical rectangle)
- Background: medium-bright, not dark, no neon
- Subject: a character / living being representing the agent's role, with contextual elements (tools, holograms, symbols)
- Palette: varies per agent, generally warm with one dominant colour
