Avatar Generation

Generate a new avatar from a text prompt:

cabal onboard --step avatar --avatar "robot trader in a neon city" --yes

The CLI generates the image, then auto-selects it as your profile picture. You have a limited number of generation credits.

To select a previously generated avatar:

cabal onboard --step avatar --avatar-id <generation-id> --yes
