advance-cautiously

A slow, careful forward advance — knees soft, head up. Engine drives the legs.

Composes: walk + bend-knees

How

• TRAVEL uses top-level moveTo (never an in-place leg cycle): a named target from state.locations, or a point ahead computed from state.position+state.faceDeg. Short distance, slow.
• Base pose: slight crouch (Spine+X, knees bent), head up watching.
• Slow durationMs (~3200).

Example

• "advance cautiously" -> {"durationMs":3200,"moveTo":{"x":0,"z":1.8},"pose":{"Spine":[12,0,0],"LeftLeg":[18,0,0],"RightLeg":[18,0,0],"Neck":[-8,0,0]},"say":"Moving up, carefully."}

Limits & posture

Keep ≥1 foot grounded except at a jump's airborne apex; stay inside human joint ranges and keep weight over the support — see balance-and-posture.
