+immediately), `max_wait_ms` (wait up to a budget, then hand back the `job_id` — fast results stay
+in-band, slow batches never trip the host timeout), and `idempotency_key` (a retry returns the
+recorded result instead of re-billing). On the hosted connector, a `gemini_image_set` result with
+more than one image also carries a **`bundle_url`** — one signed URL for a zip of every image in
+the set — and set links are signed for ~7 days instead of the default ~48h. (A set too large to
+zip safely in Worker memory skips the bundle and says so via `bundle_skipped`; the per-image
+links are unaffected.)

 automatically with `--data-binary @file`. Accepted content types are `image/*`, `video/*` and
 `audio/*`; an optional `?name=` or `X-Filename` header sets the display name.
 
+### Signed upload URLs — no token at all (hosted connector)
+
+`POST /upload` needs the MCP session's OAuth bearer token, which a sandboxed shell often does
+not have. `gemini_get_upload_url` closes that gap: the authenticated MCP session mints a
+short-lived (~10 min) signed **PUT** URL, and the shell uploads with zero auth headers — the
+signature in the URL is the authorization, mirroring how `/media` downloads work.
+
+```bash
+# 1. tool call: gemini_get_upload_url { filename: "photo.jpg", content_type: "image/jpeg" }
+#    → { upload_url, r2_key, expires_at, curl_hint }
+
+# 2. shell:
+curl -sS -X PUT -H "Content-Type: image/jpeg" --data-binary @photo.jpg "$UPLOAD_URL"
+# → { "r2_key": "up/<tenant>/2026-07-31/ab12cd34-photo.jpg", "size_bytes": 812345, ... }
+```
+
+The signature covers one tenant-scoped object key, the declared content type and the expiry;
+uploads are capped at 15MB, enforced while reading the stream. Only **raster** image types are
+accepted (jpeg/png/webp/gif/avif/heic/heif/bmp/tiff) — SVG is deliberately refused, because an
+SVG is a scriptable document and `/media` serves from the connector's own origin. The returned
+`r2_key` is then usable three ways: directly as `images_r2_keys` on any generation tool (the
+server reads its own bucket — no bytes in the conversation), permanently via
+`gemini_save_character`, or as a ~48h Files API reference via `gemini_upload_file({ r2_key })`.
+Uploads themselves follow the media retention schedule (`up/` prefix, default 7 days).
+
+### Character & style library (hosted connector)
+
+Recurring subjects and styles can be saved once, per account, with **no expiry** (the retention
+cron deliberately skips the library's `lib/` prefix):
+
+```jsonc
+// once:
+{ "tool": "gemini_save_character", "name": "finn",
+  "description": "6-year-old boy, curly red hair", "image_r2_key": "up/…/photo.jpg" }
+{ "tool": "gemini_save_style", "name": "bold-cartoon-sports",
+  "prompt_fragment": "bold cartoon style, thick outlines, saturated colors" }
+
+// afterwards, on any generation:
+{ "tool": "gemini_image_set",
+  "master_prompt": "Finn on a soccer field",
+  "scenes": ["kicking the ball", "celebrating a goal"],
+  "characters": ["finn"], "style": "bold-cartoon-sports" }
+```
+
+Naming a character attaches its saved reference image and weaves its description into the
+prompt; naming a style appends its fragment (and attaches its reference image, if it has one).
+`gemini_image_set` passes character references to the master *and every scene call*, which is
+what keeps the subject consistent across the set.
