Use when a Godot 4 game goes online or co-op: host and join with ENet, WebSocket for a web build, RPCs (@rpc, rpc_id, any_peer), MultiplayerSpawner and MultiplayerSynchronizer, player authority, lobbies and login, a dedicated or headless server export, lag, rubber-banding, prediction or netfox, cheating, bandwidth, Steam, Nakama or WebRTC. Symptoms: players do not appear on the client, 'rpc node checksum failed', 'node not found' on an RPC, desync, the server build is huge, a client never connects.

Use when a named character or prop must become a reusable identity in Scenario: creating a character or prop from a brief or interview, building its approved image collection (character: <name> or props: <name>), assembling a character sheet or turnaround, or generating new images of an established one. Triggers include create a new character, design a prop, character sheet, turnaround, more images of this character. Keywords: character design, identity, library, collection, grid.

Use when generating or editing images with Ideogram models on Scenario via MCP: posters, logos, menus, packaging, or signage with exact in-image text, editing an image in place while keeping its exact size, transparent PNG generation, background removal that keeps hair and glass edges, editable text layers for localization, or one consistent character from a reference. Keywords: Ideogram 4.5, Precise Edit, V4, V3, typography, aspect ratio, layerize, character reference, inpainting.

Also when motion looks floaty, weightless, mushy, poppy, posey, sliding or chattery, or feet slap or skate.

Use when skinning a character in Maya ("bind skin", "fix the weights", weight painting, Skin Tools or ngSkinTools layers), when deformation looks wrong (pinching, candy-wrapper wrist, collapsing elbow or shoulder, volume loss, clothes poking through), when mirroring, copying or capping skin weights for Unreal or Unity, building blend shapes, corrective shapes or pose space deformation (Pose Editor on IK-driven joints), a face rig with shapes or joints, multiple skinClusters, Delta Mush or the ML Deformer, or running a range-of-motion deformation test.

Also when an FBX lands with wrong scale, normals, tangents or extra takes, a USD export has one frame or smoothed meshes, or one bad file kills a batch.
