Physics Skills

Raycasts, overlap checks, and gravity settings.

Guardrails

Mode: Full-Auto required

DO NOT (common hallucinations):

• physics_add_rigidbody / physics_add_collider do not exist → use component_add with componentType "Rigidbody"/"BoxCollider"/etc.
• physics_simulate does not exist → physics simulation runs during Play mode
• Raycast results use world-space coordinates

Routing:

• For adding physics components → use component module
• For physics material → use physics_create_material (this module)
• For layer collision matrix → physics_set_layer_collision (this module)

Minimal Example

import unity_skills

# Raycast from position downward, check for hits
result = unity_skills.call_skill("physics_raycast",
    originX=0, originY=5, originZ=0,
    dirX=0, dirY=-1, dirZ=0,
    maxDistance=10
)
if result.get("hit"):
    print(f"Hit: {result['hitObjectName']} at distance {result['distance']}")
