# Tatsumi
Tatsumi is a desktop app for generating AI character art powered by Google Gemini's image model. It's built specifically to generate art of Naomi, with her reference sheet pre-loaded so you just describe the scene.
## Features
### Three generation modes
- **Avatar** — Generate a portrait or avatar from a text prompt (1:1 aspect ratio)
- **Art** — Generate a full widescreen piece from a text prompt (16:9 aspect ratio)
- **Replace** — Upload a source image and describe what you want changed or reimagined
### Conversation threads
Each generation session is a thread. You can send follow-up messages to refine the result, retry any response, edit a previous prompt and re-run, or delete messages. Threads are saved locally and persist between sessions.
### Other bits
- Model reasoning is shown as a collapsible "Model reasoning" section on each response
- Cost per response is displayed (input + output tokens)
- Generated images can be downloaded directly from the chat
- App version shown in the sidebar header
## Setup
You'll need a [Google Gemini API key](https://aistudio.google.com/apikey) to use Tatsumi. On first launch, you'll be prompted to enter it. You can update it any time via Settings.
## Running locally
```bash
pnpm install
pnpm tauri dev
```
## Building
```bash
pnpm tauri build
# or for Windows cross-compilation:
