# Camera Skills

Control the Scene View camera.

## Guardrails

**Mode**: Full-Auto required

**DO NOT** (common hallucinations):
- `camera_move` / `camera_rotate` do not exist → use `camera_set_transform` (Scene View) or `gameobject_set_transform` (Game Camera)
- `camera_set_fov` does not exist → use `camera_set_properties` with `fieldOfView` parameter
- `camera_*` skills control **two different cameras**: `camera_set_transform`/`camera_look_at`/`camera_align_view_to_object` control the **Scene View camera**; `camera_create`/`camera_set_properties`/`camera_screenshot` control **Game Cameras**
- `camera_delete` does not exist → use `gameobject_delete` on the camera GameObject

**Routing**:
- For Cinemachine virtual cameras → use `cinemachine` module
- For Game Camera component properties → `camera_set_properties` / `camera_get_properties` (this module)
- For scene screenshots → `scene_screenshot` (scene module) uses the Scene View; `camera_screenshot` uses a Game Camera

## Skills

### `camera_align_view_to_object`
Align Scene View camera to look at an object.
**Parameters:**
- `objectName` (string): Name of the target GameObject.

### `camera_get_info`
Get Scene View camera position and rotation.
**Parameters:** None.

### `camera_set_transform`
Set Scene View camera position/rotation manually.
**Parameters:**
- `posX`, `posY`, `posZ` (float): Position.
- `rotX`, `rotY`, `rotZ` (float): Rotation (Euler).
- `size` (float, optional): Orthographic size or distance.
- `instant` (bool, optional): Move instantly (default true).

### `camera_look_at`
Focus Scene View camera on a point.
**Parameters:**
- `x`, `y`, `z` (float): Target point.

### `camera_create`
Create a new Game Camera.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| name | string | No | "New Camera" | Name of the new camera GameObject |
| x | float | No | 0 | Position X |
| y | float | No | 1 | Position Y |
| z | float | No | -10 | Position Z |

**Returns:** `{ success, name, instanceId }`

### `camera_get_properties`

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| name | string | No | null | Name of the camera GameObject |
| instanceId | int | No | 0 | Instance ID of the camera GameObject |
| path | string | No | null | Hierarchy path of the camera GameObject |

**Returns:** `{ success, name, fieldOfView, nearClipPlane, farClipPlane, orthographic, orthographicSize, depth, cullingMask, clearFlags, backgroundColor, rect }`

### `camera_set_properties`
Set Game Camera properties (FOV, clip planes, clear flags, background color, depth).

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| name | string | No | null | Name of the camera GameObject |
| instanceId | int | No | 0 | Instance ID of the camera GameObject |
| path | string | No | null | Hierarchy path of the camera GameObject |
| fieldOfView | float? | No | null | Camera field of view |
| nearClipPlane | float? | No | null | Near clipping plane distance |
| farClipPlane | float? | No | null | Far clipping plane distance |
| depth | float? | No | null | Camera rendering depth |
| clearFlags | string | No | null | Clear flags (e.g. Skybox, SolidColor, Depth, Nothing) |
| bgR | float? | No | null | Background color red component |
| bgG | float? | No | null | Background color green component |
| bgB | float? | No | null | Background color blue component |

**Returns:** `{ success, name }`

### `camera_set_culling_mask`
Set Game Camera culling mask by layer names (comma-separated).

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
