Reference

The reference is generated from the engine itself, never written by hand: the tool registry, the reflected component schemas, the Wander builtin registry, the CLI's help and the C API header. A test in the engine's suite fails when the committed pages fall behind the code, so what you read here is what the engine accepts.

Reference	Generated from	Contents
Tools	skywalker tools --json	Every tool by category: description, argument table with types, enums and ranges, MCP annotations, and the same example as a tool call, a CLI command and an MCP request
Components	component_schema	Every component and the environment: fields, types, ranges, enums, documentation
Wander builtins	wander_reference	Every builtin function by category with signature, parameters, return type and example, plus subsystem triggers
Command line	the CLI's help	skywalker commands and options
C API	engine/capi/include/sky_api.h	The stable C ABI used by the editor and any FFI

Regenerating

Contributors who change a tool, component, builtin or CLI flag regenerate the data and the pages:

cmake --build --preset release --target skywalker
python3 website/scripts/dump_data.py --cli build/release/bin/skywalker
python3 website/scripts/gen_reference.py
python3 website/scripts/check_snippets.py --cli build/release/bin/skywalker

See the website README for details.

Conventions used throughout

Convention	Value
Units	Meters, seconds, degrees; masses in kilograms
Axes	+Y up; entities face −Z; rotations are Euler degrees [pitch(X), yaw(Y), roll(Z)]
Colors	"#rrggbb" / "#rrggbbaa" strings or [r, g, b(, a)] in 0..1; emissive alpha is strength (HDR)
Entity references	A numeric id (stable, never reused) or an exact name
Paths	Relative to the project folder; models as asset:<path>, prefabs as prefab:<path> in Wander spawn
Time	Fixed 1/60 s ticks; 60 ticks are one second
Errors	A stable snake_case code, a message and a hint (often did you mean …?)
