tiptoe

Walk on the balls of the feet so the steps are silent. Travel normally, but hold the ankles pointed.

How

• TRAVEL uses top-level moveTo (never in-place legs). Use a named target, or compute a point ahead from state.position+state.faceDeg (0=+Z, 90=+X), d~1.5–2.5.
• Slow, careful durationMs (~2800–3400).
• Base pose keeps the heels up: LeftFoot:[55,0,0], RightFoot:[55,0,0] (ankle X below the 90 rest = toes down/tiptoe). The walk overlay does not touch the ankles, so the pointed feet persist while traveling. A small forward lean (Spine:[8,0,0]) reads as careful.

Example

• "tiptoe to the bed" -> {"durationMs":3000,"moveTo":{"target":"bed"},"pose":{"LeftFoot":[55,0,0],"RightFoot":[55,0,0],"Spine":[8,0,0]},"say":"Shhh..."}
• "walk on your tiptoes" (at x:0,z:0,faceDeg:0) -> {"durationMs":3000,"moveTo":{"x":0,"z":2},"pose":{"LeftFoot":[55,0,0],"RightFoot":[55,0,0]},"say":"Quiet as a mouse."}
