blender-rigging

Typed rigging tools for Blender armatures and character setup. Load this skill when creating armatures or bones, binding meshes, adding constraints, creating shape keys or drivers, or copying pose/action data between compatible rigs.

Prefer blender-pose-library for saving and loading reusable poses, blender-animation for keyframe editing and baking, and blender-scripting only after checking this typed surface.
