Unity Cinemachine

Cinemachine Skills

Control Cinemachine Virtual Cameras and brain settings. Works with Cinemachine 2.x and 3.x through a runtime reflection adapter (CinemachineAdapter / CinemachineSkills).

Operating Mode

• Approval：查询类 skill（cinemachine_inspect_vcam / cinemachine_list_components / cinemachine_get_brain_info，源码标 SkillMode.SemiAuto）直接执行；其余配置/创建类（cinemachine_create_vcam / cinemachine_set_targets / cinemachine_set_lens / cinemachine_configure_body / cinemachine_configure_aim 等，标 SkillMode.FullAuto）需用户 grant，grant 后服务端一步执行返结果。
• Auto / Bypass：未被禁列表拦截的 skill 直接执行。
• 本模块含 Delete 类 skill：cinemachine_set_component（替换/移除 pipeline component）、cinemachine_target_group_remove_member、cinemachine_remove_extension 标记为 SkillOperation.Delete，被 IsForbiddenInSemi 静态拦截 —— 仅 Bypass 模式或加入 Allowlist 才能调用。
• 包依赖：必须安装 com.unity.cinemachine 包（CM 2.x 或 3.x）。未安装时所有 skill 返回 { error = "Cinemachine 未安装..." } 的 stub —— 调用方应先用 package_* 系列 skill 确认安装状态。
• 反射脆弱性：CM2 ↔ CM3 之间 API 名变化大（CinemachineVirtualCamera → CinemachineCamera，CinemachineComponentBase 改名等）。本模块通过 CinemachineAdapter 反射桥接，遇 CM 早期预览版（< 3.0.0-pre.5）可能因 API 漂移返回失败 —— 优先用 cinemachine_inspect_vcam 探测当前可用字段，再决定 propertyName。

DO NOT (common hallucinations):

• cinemachine_create does not exist → use cinemachine_create_vcam for virtual cameras
• cinemachine_set_target / cinemachine_set_follow / cinemachine_set_lookat do not exist → use cinemachine_set_targets (sets both Follow and LookAt in one call)
• cinemachine_add_brain does not exist → CinemachineBrain is auto-added to Main Camera on first VCam creation
• Cinemachine 2.x uses CinemachineVirtualCamera; Cinemachine 3.x uses CinemachineCamera — skills handle this automatically

Additional compatibility notes:

• CM3 priority access should use Priority.Value as the lowest common API when writing compatibility code.
• Early CM3 previews before 3.0.0-pre.5 changed core camera APIs significantly and are outside the current support baseline.

Routing:

• For basic Game Camera operations → use camera module
• For Scene View camera → use camera module's camera_set_transform/camera_look_at
• For camera animation sequences → use timeline module with Cinemachine track
