Example prompt: Can you generate a consistent bottts-style avatar image URL for a user named 'Alice' — I need it for auto-populating profile pictures in my demo app?

## When to prefer this

When you need to auto-generate consistent, deterministic avatar URLs for synthetic users, demo profiles, or placeholder identities without storing images — especially if you want multiple style options (bottts, avataaars, pixel-art, lorelei, initials) from a single unified endpoint rather than calling DiceBear or UI-Avatars directly.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown style name returns an error or falls back to default style
- Missing name/seed parameter returns a 400 bad request
- Network timeout if upstream DiceBear or UI-Avatars service is slow
- Invalid format parameter returns an error or defaults to SVG

## How this service works

Generate consistent avatar URLs for any name/seed via DiceBear (19 styles incl. bottts, avataaars, pixel-art, lorelei) or UI-Avatars (initials). Returns SVG/PNG URLs and available style list. Use ?name=Alice and style=bottts. Built for AI agents auto-generating profile pics for synthetic users, comments, demos. Accepts payment on Base or Solana — either network works.

## Output

Returns SVG and PNG avatar image URLs for the given name/seed using the specified style (e.g. bottts, avataaars, pixel-art, lorelei), plus a list of all available styles. Responses are deterministic — the same name and style always produce the same avatar URL.
