Rig, animation and shape-key operations
These objects are entries in model.apply.operations. Unknown/duplicate fields
fail. Names obey document limits. Joint indices are zero-based u32 JSON integers;
mesh vertex IDs are canonical positive decimal strings. A transform is
{translation?:[x,y,z],rotation?:[x,y,z,w],scale?:[x,y,z]} with defaults zero,
identity quaternion, and one. Quaternions must be normalized and scales nonzero.
All numeric input must be finite. Rotation angles are radians.
skeleton {joints:[{name,parent,translation}]}creates/replaces the skeleton. Exactly one root has parent:null; other parents are earlier joint ordinals. Translation is parent-local XYZ. Preserve weighted joint identities on replacement.clip {name,channels:[{joint,path,keys:[{time,value}]}]}creates/replaces a clip. Path istranslation|rotation|scale; time is increasing seconds. Values always have four lanes: XYZ plus0 for translation/scale, normalized XYZW for rotation. Keys replace local TRS components, so translation keys include the rest offset. Use namesidleandwalkfor automatic character gait selection.delete_clip {name}removes a clip and its attached options.rig_rest {joint,transform}sets the joint's full local rest transform.rig_rename {joint,name}changes a joint name, retaining its index.rig_parent {joint,parent}changes the parent index; null makes a root. Parents must precede children. This keeps the local rest unchanged.rig_mirror {joints:[indices],axis,names:[{joint,name}]}duplicates selected joints in parent-first order, with one explicit unique new name per joint. Axis is X/Y/Z as0/1/2. It mirrors full world rests and maps selected parents to duplicated parents. Existing joints/weights retain their indices. Local shear is refused; include the parent chain or remove nonuniform parent scale. The single skeleton root cannot be duplicated: select limbs/subtrees.rig_roll {joint,angle}rotates the local rest about its local Y axis.pose {name,joints:[{joint,transform}]}creates/replaces a sparse named FK pose. Omitted joints inherit their local rests. Joint rows must be unique.delete_pose {name}removes an existing pose.constraint {name,joint,enabled?,kind}creates/replaces a constraint. Enabled defaults true. Kind is one of:{type:"copy",target,translation?,rotation?,scale?,influence?}: local-space copy; defaults true,true,false,1. Influence is0..1.{type:"aim",target,axis?,influence?}: aim local axis(default[0,1,0]) at the target joint in global space. Influence defaults1.{type:"limit",min_translation,max_translation,min_scale,max_scale,max_angle}: vector bounds and angular bound relative to rest, max_angle0..pi. Scale minimum must be positive and each maximum at least its minimum.{type:"ik",middle,end,target,pole,clamp_reach?}: joint is chain root; middle/end are its direct child/grandchild. Target is another joint index; pole is a global position. Clamp-reach defaults false. Enabled constraints have one writer per joint and an acyclic dependency graph.
delete_constraint {name}removes an existing constraint.solve_pose {pose}evaluates enabled constraints and replaces that named pose.ik {pose,root,middle,end,target,pole,clamp_reach?}solves an explicit global target position on a named pose. Analytic two-bone IK preserves bone lengths; unreachable targets fail unless clamp_reach is true. The chain and its ancestors require uniform positive scale. Degenerate targets/poles fail.bake_clip {name,poses:[{time,pose}],fps?,solve_constraints?}samples at fps (default30, range1..120) to ordinary TRS channels. Pose keys begin at0 and strictly increase; at least two are required. Constraint solving defaults true.blend_clip {name,a,b,weight,fps?}blends two existing clips at weight0..1 into a sampled clip, normalizing their timelines to the longer duration. Fps defaults30. Source clips remain unchanged.retarget_clip {name,source,joints:[{source,target}],translation_scale?}maps every animated joint into the current skeleton. Source rows must be unique. Translation scale is positive and defaults1. This is an explicit joint mapping; it does not infer names or anatomical correspondence.clip_options {name,interpolation?,root_motion?,events?,morph_keys?}attaches authored animation metadata to an existing clip. Interpolation islinear|step|cubic(default linear); cubic uses smoothstep easing between keys. Root-motion flag defaults false. Events are ordered{time,name,payload?}rows (payload defaults empty string, max4096bytes). Morph keys are[{morph,keys:[{time,weight}]}], with unique target names and strictly increasing nonnegative times. Times must fit the clip duration. Events/root-motion metadata require an application consumer to trigger actions.weight_locks {object,joints:[indices]}replaces the set of locked weight groups. Weight tools preserve each existing locked weight and normalize the free remainder. Empty joint list unlocks every group.weight_edit {object,vertices:[decimalIDs],edit}edits a selected set; an empty vertex list means every vertex. Duplicate IDs fail. Edit is one of:{type:"assign",joint}binds every selected vertex rigidly to one joint. An existing positive locked influence on another joint rejects the whole transaction. Useful for eye/limb children beneath a soft-body rigid frame.{type:"normalize",max_influences?}sorts/prunes only unlocked weights and normalizes to unit sum. Default maximum is4.{type:"smooth",iterations?,factor?}averages connected neighbor weights; defaults1 iteration and factor0.5, iterations1..64, factor0..1.{type:"mirror",axis,joints:[{source,target}],tolerance?}uses the nearest vertex mirrored across X/Y/Z (axis0/1/2). Missing joint-map entries keep their joint. Positive tolerance defaults0.001; unmatched vertices fail.{type:"transfer",source,max_distance}copies nearest source-vertex weights within a positive distance. This operation uses vertex correspondence rather than triangle surface interpolation.{type:"bind",max_influences?,power?}derives weights from distance to rest bone segments, defaults4 influences and inverse-distance power2 (positive, at most8). Locks remain exact. An influence cap that cannot fit locked weights and the remaining weight mass fails without changing the mesh.
morph {name,object,deltas:[{vertex,delta}],weight?}creates/replaces a sparse shape target. Deltas are 3-vectors and IDs unique; default weight0. The engine pins the object's exact topology signature when the target is authored.capture_morph {name,object,target,weight?}captures positional differences from a second object with matching topology and element IDs. Weight defaults0.delete_morph {name}removes an existing shape target.morph_weight {name,weight}sets a target's current default influence.
Morph weights may range from-2 to2. Topology changes invalidate pinned targets and fail until those targets are explicitly removed/rebuilt. Rest, pose, constraint, clip-option, lock and morph data survive source checkpoints directly; morph topology signatures are serialized explicitly, never reconstructed by re-executing an authoring operation. Source references are validated on open. Limits include64 poses,128 constraints,32 morph targets,1024 events per clip, document joint/keyframe bounds and aggregate memory/transaction/work budgets.
