🎭 Mad Libs Wildcard Prompt App

A GUI tool for building structured, wildcard-enhanced prompts for text-to-image generation — perfect for use with Fooocus and similar AI tools.

✅ Features

• 🧠 Category-based dropdowns
  Each blank in the story (__noun__, __location__, etc.) maps to matching wildcard categories.

• 🔁 Dropdown order preserved
  Dropdowns appear in the same order as placeholders in your story.

• 🎲 Two randomization modes

  • Auto-fill dropdowns with random wildcard files
  • Randomly select a value from the file when generating the prompt

• 📜 Story template loader
  Load and choose from .txt story templates.

• 🧹 Wildcard cleanup
  NSFW and overlapping wildcards removed. Cleaned set with updated category mapping.

• 🧠 Smart defaults
  Automatically detects folders/configs and only prompts if missing.
