run

Travel quickly to a place. Running is just walking with intent — the engine drives the legs; you only set the destination and a lean.

How

• TRAVEL uses top-level moveTo (NEVER an in-place leg sequence). Pick a named target from state.locations, or compute a point ahead from state.position + state.faceDeg (0=+Z, 90=+X): x' = x + sin(face)*d, z' = z + cos(face)*d. Use a bigger d (~3–4) than a walk.
• Use a SHORT durationMs (~1500–1900) to read as fast.
• Add a running posture as a base pose: forward torso lean (Spine/Chest +X) and bent elbows (RightForearm Z 90, LeftForearm Z -90). The engine overlays the leg/arm swing on top.
• Do not also emit leg keyframes — moveTo is self-contained.

Example

• "run to the kitchen" -> {"durationMs":1700,"moveTo":{"target":"kitchen"},"pose":{"Spine":[12,0,0],"Chest":[8,0,0],"RightForearm":[0,0,90],"LeftForearm":[0,0,-90]},"say":"On my way—fast!"}
• "run forward" (at x:0,z:0,faceDeg:0) -> {"durationMs":1700,"moveTo":{"x":0,"z":3.5},"pose":{"Spine":[12,0,0],"Chest":[8,0,0]},"say":"Here I go!"}
