Agent Skills: RealityKit Animation Physics

Implement and debug RealityKit animation, character controllers, skeletal poses, IK, body tracking, blendshapes, animation graphs, retargeting, root motion, navigation, behavior trees, collision, physics bodies, joints, forces, particles, compute simulations, and cloth on visionOS 27. Use when a RealityKit task is primarily about motion, character behavior, physical simulation, hit-test collision shape details, particle simulation, or animation/physics troubleshooting.

Description
Implement and debug RealityKit animation, character controllers, skeletal poses, IK, body tracking, blendshapes, animation graphs, retargeting, root motion, navigation, behavior trees, collision, physics bodies, joints, forces, particles, compute simulations, and cloth on visionOS 27. Use when a RealityKit task is primarily about motion, character behavior, physical simulation, hit-test collision shape details, particle simulation, or animation/physics troubleshooting.

RealityKit Animation Physics

Quick Start

  1. Decide whether the task is animation, character motion, navigation/behavior, collision, rigid physics, forces/joints, particles, compute simulation, or cloth.
  2. Load the matching reference file only.
  3. Use documented RealityKit animation and physics components before custom ECS update loops.
  4. Switch to realitykit-ecs-systems when behavior needs custom per-frame processing across multiple entities.
  5. Switch to realitykit-visionos-developer for general input, attachments, entity loading, anchoring, or non-physics component selection.

Load References When

| Reference | When to Use | |---|---| | references/animationlibrarycomponent.md | Work with loaded animation clips or animation libraries. | | references/animation-graphs-and-retargeting.md | Use animation graphs, retargeting, root motion, or mesh deformers. | | references/blendshapeweightscomponent.md | Drive blendshape weights for facial, character, or mesh deformation. | | references/skeletalposescomponent.md | Inspect or set skeletal pose state. | | references/ikcomponent.md | Configure inverse kinematics. | | references/bodytrackingcomponent.md | Use body tracking component state. | | references/charactercontrollercomponent.md and references/charactercontrollerstatecomponent.md | Build character controller movement and inspect controller state. | | references/navigation-and-behavior-trees.md | Add navmesh pathfinding, agent steering, or behavior trees. | | references/collisioncomponent.md | Define collision shapes for physics, contacts, hit testing, or input targeting. | | references/physicsbodycomponent.md, references/physicsmotioncomponent.md, references/physicssimulationcomponent.md | Configure rigid-body physics, motion, and simulation behavior. | | references/physicsjointscomponent.md, references/forceeffectcomponent.md, references/geometricpinscomponent.md | Configure joints, forces, and pinning. | | references/particleemittercomponent.md | Use built-in particle emitters. | | references/compute-graph-particles.md | Build GPU particles or compute simulations with ComputeGraph. | | references/cloth-simulation.md | Simulate cloth bodies, cloth colliders, or cloth grabbing. |

Cross-Routing

  • Use realitykit-rendering-materials for visual appearance, materials, cameras, lights, shadows, splats, LOD, or post-processing.
  • Use realitykit-audio-spatial for audio events tied to motion or physics.
  • Use realitykit-ecs-systems for custom systems, component registration, update queries, or continuous multi-entity behavior.
  • Use realitykit-visionos-developer for InputTargetComponent, gestures, ManipulationComponent, attachments, or asset-loading ownership.

Guardrails

  • Collision shapes serve both hit testing and physics; verify the intended owner before changing them.
  • Keep continuous simulation behavior in RealityKit systems or documented components, not SwiftUI body code.
  • Treat visionOS 27 animation, navigation, compute, and cloth additions as beta API; re-check symbols against the installed SDK.
  • Validate simulation work with deterministic inputs where possible and note whether the check ran in simulator or on device.

Output Expectations

Provide:

  • the animation or physics category
  • which references were used
  • the component or system path chosen
  • the motion, collision, or simulation constraint
  • the next runtime validation step
