Gate 2.4 asked for lean/stagger/brace clips staged by wind band. The answer,
measured twice, is that the asset shouldn't exist.
1. The lean cannot be a clip. _rotOnly drops Hips.quaternion from every clip at
load (player.js:53, applied :239). Parsed the shipped pack to confirm rather
than trust the read: 17 clips, 195 channels each, 64 survive. A lean baked
into a clip's hips is discarded. And stripping it is right — the wind's
bearing swings (the change; site_02's venturi) and a canned clip has one
fixed lean axis, so only the sim can aim it. Same trick as the knockdown and
climbY. The lean is D's root pitch; thresholds proposed off Beaufort 7
("inconvenience felt when walking against the wind" = 13.9 m/s), which lands
storm_01 never leaning, storm_03 gusting through the line, storm_02 in gale.
2. Mixamo has no wind animations. Searched the real API, not assumed: shiver
returns zero, brace returns eleven ledge-hang clips, wind returns Catwalk
Turn. The factory header already recorded this in Sprint 3.
Rendered the two real candidates on a skinned rig, twice each — as authored and
as the game shows them. Pushing is a squat shoving a couch. Leaning is a man
waiting for a bus. Both rejected. Both would have passed every check we own:
they load, they're metre-scale, their nodes survive. Dims can't answer "is this
the right shape" — the bike rule, catching a whole feature this time.
Brace and stagger already ship (TakeCover, StumbleBack, Reaction). D should wire
the root lean first; I'll hand-author a WindPosture additive into the gap we can
both see, if one remains. Spine rotation survives _rotOnly, so it would land.
Evidence, harness and repro in tools/character/windclip_candidates/, plus the
four pipeline traps I hit in order so the next lane doesn't.
selftest 335/0/0, unchanged — no asset added, no shipped file touched.
