Fixes #290

Adds IMAGEN3_REPORT.md — a comprehensive research report on Google Imagen 3 for generating Nexus concept art and AI agent avatars.

What is covered

  • Model variants: imagen-3.0-generate-002 (recommended), fast variant, capability (editing) variant, and Imagen 4 comparison
  • API access & pricing: Gemini Developer API ($0.03/image) vs Vertex AI, rate limits, authentication
  • Image resolutions: aspect ratios and pixel sizes for avatars (1:1) and concept art (16:9)
  • Prompt engineering: formula, style keywords for space/cyberpunk, example prompts for the Nexus hub, portal chamber, and AI agent avatars (Timmy, Claude, Kimi)
  • Integration architecture: backend proxy pattern (security), Three.js texture loading, Python SDK examples
  • Comparison: Imagen 3/4 vs DALL-E 3, Stable Diffusion, Midjourney — with Nexus-specific recommendation
  • Key considerations: SynthID watermark, seed reproducibility for avatar identity, prompt enhancement
  • Implementation roadmap: Phase 1 (pre-generated assets), Phase 2 (agent avatars), Phase 3 (live generation proxy)

Recommendation: Use imagen-3.0-generate-002 via Gemini API as the primary path — lowest friction, $0.03/image, strong results with the prompt templates provided.

Comprehensive research covering Imagen 3 API access, pricing, prompt
engineering patterns for space/cyberpunk concept art and AI agent avatars,
integration architecture for Three.js Nexus app, and comparison to
DALL-E 3, Stable Diffusion, and Midjourney alternatives.
