Unity Dotween

DOTween Skills

DOTween Free/Pro support for project diagnostics, settings, module/API discovery, and runtime script generation. DOTween Pro-only DOTweenAnimation editor-time configuration remains available through dotween_pro_* skills.

Guardrails

Operating Mode (v1.9 three-tier):

• Approval (default): query/diagnostic skills (dotween_get_status, dotween_settings_get, dotween_settings_find, dotween_settings_validate, dotween_list_modules, dotween_list_shortcuts, dotween_pro_get_animation, dotween_pro_list_animations) run directly. Mutators (settings configure, script generators, all other dotween_pro_*) are FullAuto — on MODE_RESTRICTED, run the grant protocol.
• Auto / Bypass: SemiAuto and FullAuto run directly.
• Auto-forbidden in this module: dotween_generate_tween_script, dotween_generate_sequence_script, dotween_generate_lifetime_script (all carry MayTriggerReload = true, RiskLevel = "high" because writing a new .cs triggers script compilation + Domain Reload). Reachable only under Bypass mode or via a user-managed Allowlist entry; the grant flow returns MODE_FORBIDDEN.
• When DOTween Free/Pro is missing, the DOTweenPresenceDetector does not add the DOTWEEN / DOTWEEN_PRO defines, so most skills return a "not installed" diagnostic instead of executing. The dotween_pro_* family additionally requires Pro because DG.Tweening.DOTweenAnimation is Pro-only.

Prerequisites:

• DOTween Free or Pro must be installed. DOTweenPresenceDetector adds DOTWEEN / DOTWEEN_PRO defines automatically after install.
• Free skills work with DOTween Free and Pro: status, settings read/find/validate/configure, module/shortcut listing, runtime script generation.
• dotween_pro_* skills require DOTween Pro because DG.Tweening.DOTweenAnimation is Pro-only.

Do not confuse Free with Pro:

• Free skills do not create or emulate DOTweenAnimation components.
• Runtime tween generation creates .cs scripts only; it does not auto-attach scripts to scene objects because Unity may need a Domain Reload first.
• For source-level runtime API design rules, load dotween-design.

Free Skills

Diagnostics and settings

• dotween_get_status — report DOTween/Pro install status, DOTweenSettings.asset path, and visible module count.
• dotween_settings_find — list project assets named DOTweenSettings.
• dotween_settings_get — read common DOTweenSettings.asset fields.
• dotween_settings_validate — report missing settings, duplicate settings, invalid capacities, and notable SafeMode warnings.
• dotween_settings_configure — edit Resources/DOTweenSettings.asset; parameters: defaultEaseType?, defaultAutoKill?, defaultLoopType?, safeMode?, logBehaviour?, tweenersCapacity?, sequencesCapacity?.

API discovery

• dotween_list_modules — list loaded DG.Tweening.DOTweenModule*, ShortcutExtensions, TweenExtensions, and TweenSettingsExtensions types. Optional: includeMethods=false, methodLimit=20.
• dotween_list_shortcuts — list public extension methods. Optional filters: targetType, methodPrefix, limit=100.

Runtime script generation

All generation skills require className, default folder=Assets/Scripts/DOTween, optional namespaceName, and never overwrite existing files.

• dotween_generate_tween_script — create one runtime tween MonoBehaviour.
• dotween_generate_sequence_script — create one runtime Sequence MonoBehaviour; optional stepsJson array of {op:"Append|Join|AppendInterval", tweenKind, duration}.
• dotween_generate_lifetime_script — create a lifecycle-safe wrapper with SetLink(gameObject) by default and KillTween() on disable/destroy.

Common parameters: targetKind=Transform, tweenKind=DOMove, duration=1, ease=OutQuad, loops=1, autoPlay=true, useSetLink=true.

Supported v1 targetKind / tweenKind pairs:

• Transform: DOMove, DOLocalMove, DORotate, DOLocalRotate, DOScale, DOPunchPosition, DOShakePosition
• RectTransform: DOAnchorPos, DOSizeDelta
• CanvasGroup: DOFade
• Graphic / Image: DOColor, DOFade
• Generic: DOTween.To

Example:

dotween_generate_tween_script className=HeroPanelIntro targetKind=RectTransform tweenKind=DOAnchorPos duration=0.35 ease=OutBack

Sequence example:

dotween_generate_sequence_script className=ButtonPop targetKind=Transform stepsJson='[
  {"op":"Append","tweenKind":"DOScale","duration":0.12},
  {"op":"AppendInterval","duration":0.05},
  {"op":"Join","tweenKind":"DOPunchPosition","duration":0.25}
]'

Pro Skills

dotween_pro_add_animation

Add one DOTweenAnimation to a GameObject and configure all core fields.

Parameters: target / animationType / endValueV3? / endValueFloat? / endValueColor? / endValueV2? / endValueString? / endValueRect? / duration=1 / ease="OutQuad" / loops=1 / loopType="Yoyo" / delay=0 / isRelative=false / isFrom=false / autoPlay=true / autoKill=true / id?

dotween_pro_batch_add_animation

Add the same animation to multiple GameObjects.

Parameters: targetsJson (JSON string array) + all params of dotween_pro_add_animation.

dotween_pro_stagger_animations

Batch-add with incrementing delay — UI cascade entrance pattern.

Parameters: targetsJson / animationType / endValueV3? / endValueFloat? / endValueColor? / endValueV2? / duration=0.5 / ease="OutBack" / loops=1 / loopType="Yoyo" / baseDelay=0 / staggerDelay=0.1 / isFrom=true / autoPlay=true / autoKill=true

dotween_pro_set_duration

Change duration on an existing DOTweenAnimation. Parameters: target, animationIndex=0, duration.

dotween_pro_set_ease

Change ease on an existing DOTweenAnimation. Parameters: target, animationIndex=0, ease="OutQuad", easeCurveJson?.

dotween_pro_set_loops

Change loops count and optional loopType. Parameters: target, animationIndex=0, loops, loopType?.

dotween_pro_set_animation_field

Generic setter for DOTweenAnimation fields except duration/ease/easeType/easeCurve/loops/loopType; use dedicated skills for those.

dotween_pro_get_animation

Read all serialized fields of one DOTweenAnimation. Parameters: target, animationIndex=0.

dotween_pro_list_animations

List DOTweenAnimation components on a target or across the scene. Parameters: target?, recursive=false.

dotween_pro_copy_animation

Copy all fields from sourceTarget[sourceIndex] to a new DOTweenAnimation on destTarget.

dotween_pro_remove_animation

Remove one DOTweenAnimation component by index.

animationType → endValue mapping

| animationType | Required parameter |

|---|---|

| Move / LocalMove / Rotate / LocalRotate / Scale / PunchPosition / PunchRotation / PunchScale / ShakePosition / ShakeRotation / ShakeScale / AnchorPos3D | endValueV3 ("1,2,3" or "[1,2,3]") |

| AnchorPos / UIWidthHeight | endValueV2 ("1,2") |

| Fade / FillAmount / CameraOrthoSize / CameraFieldOfView / Value | endValueFloat |

| Color / CameraBackgroundColor | endValueColor ("#FF8800" or "1,0.5,0,1") |

| Text | endValueString |

| UIRect | endValueRect ("x,y,width,height") |
