You are helping the user customize their assistant's avatar. There are three ways to set an avatar: building a native character from traits, uploading a custom image, or generating one with AI. When the user says they want to change their avatar, present all three options and ask which they prefer.
The avatar system supports two representations:
data/avatar/character-traits.json (body shape, eye style, color). Rendered client-side as an animated character. A static PNG at data/avatar/avatar-image.png is auto-generated for use by other clients and the dock icon.data/avatar/avatar-image.png. Used for uploaded or AI-generated avatars. When set via upload (assistant avatar set), character traits are preserved so the native character can be restored later via assistant avatar remove. When AI-generated (assistant avatar generate), character trait files are removed.The user picks a body shape, eye style, and color. Present the options conversationally - describe what each looks like so the user can choose without seeing a preview.
