Summary

Design specs for planned animation pipeline features. These are engine-agnostic and intended to guide implementation.

Design Documents

See docs/design/:

Document	Description
01-asset-generation.md	Playbook format, generation methods (AI, procedural, template), validation rules
02-asset-database.md	Data model, API, versioning, search, access control
03-character-system.md	Rig templates, parts, expressions, palettes, proportions
04-background-library.md	Layer system, parallax, atmosphere, weather, color grading
05-batch-rendering.md	Job queue, workers, distributed rendering, metrics

Prioritization

Suggested order:

Asset Database — Foundation for everything else
Asset Generation Playbooks — Generate assets per playbook + validate
Batch Rendering — Scale production output
Character Design System — Specific asset type
Background Library — Specific asset type

Status

Design specs written
Prioritize implementation
Assign owners

Notes

These specs are intentionally engine-agnostic. AnimSuite-specific implementation details can be added as each feature is implemented.
