AIRI Card Character System

The AIRI Card Character System elevates characters from static prompts into living, portable, multi-faculty entities. Supporting both native JSON (.airi v1) and SillyTavern chara_card_v2/v3 PNG formats with embedded chunk encoding, cards bundle their 3D/2D vessels, custom wardrobes, audio profiles, acting directives, and autonomous schedules into a single self-contained asset that can be shared across machines.
10-Tab Deep Configuration Editor
The card editor is a comprehensive management environment organized across 10 specialized configuration tabs:
1. Identity & Narrative Persona

Configures the foundational persona and world context:
- Name, nickname, and creator attribution with live character avatars.
- Markdown-capable description and personality trait definition.
- Dynamic system prompt drafting with blank-field preservation.
2. Generation & Model Tuning

Enables granular, per-character inference overrides:
- Dedicated provider, model, temperature, top-p, and frequency penalty controls.
- Context window budgeting and sliding-window token management.
- Custom stop sequences and structured output schemas.
3. Acting & Conversational Pacing

Aligns physical embodiment with speech and mannerisms across three distinct prompt layers:
- Model Expression Prompt: Teaches the LLM to emit inline
<|ACT:emotion="..."|>and<|ACT:motion="..."|>tags mapped to avatar blendshapes. - Speech Delivery Prompt: Tunes phonetic cadences and emotional audio delivery.
- Character Mannerism Prompt: Enforces distinctive verbal idioms and phrasing habits.
4. Modules & Embodiment Bindings

Binds the character to their primary stage presence:
- Assigns default 3D VRM, Live2D cubism, Spine, or MMD avatar models.
- Links preferred speech synthesis voices and audio transformers.
- Automatically swaps stage backgrounds and visual atmosphere on character activation.
5. Artistry & Autonomous Director

Defines generative visual styling for the character:
- Preferred image generation workflows (ComfyUI, Replicate, Pollinations).
- Positive and negative character prompt tokens for AI self-portraits.
- Director grading thresholds for autonomous scene generation during conversation.
Proactivity, Memory & Operating Schedules
AIRI characters operate on proactive schedules even when you are not actively chatting:
Operating Schedules & Cognitive Heartbeats

- Operating Schedule: Sets character waking hours, bedtime routines, and weekend pacing.
- Cognitive Heartbeats: Periodic background evaluation of user activity, active desktop windows, and idle duration to initiate spontaneous check-ins.

Screen Watching & 24-Hour Memory Consolidation

- Screen Perception: OCR and vision-language analysis enabling characters to comment on games, code, or video streams.
- 24-Hour Memory Consolidation: Nightly dreaming engine that synthesizes Short-Term Memory into durable Long-Term Text Journals and Lifetime Archives.

Interoperability & Community Hubs

- Drag-and-Drop Import Wizard: Drop SillyTavern PNG cards or JSON files anywhere on the app for instant parsing with automatic collision renaming.
- In-App Webview Browser: Browse character card repositories and community hubs (Chub.ai, CharacterHub) directly within AIRI and import cards with a single click.
