Choreograph multi-step emotion sequences by defining a performance object with named steps, each specifying an emotion, duration, and optional gesture. Apply timing guidelines (quick, standard, extended) and use pre-built patterns like welcome, celebration, or error recovery to structure timed transitions that convey complex emotional narratives.

Common patterns include welcome sequences for user greetings, celebration animations for positive outcomes, error recovery flows for failure states, and processing sequences for thinking states. Each pattern provides pre-defined templates with emotion and gesture combinations you can adapt for context-appropriate interactions.

Yes, choreographed sequences expose callbacks for onStart, onStepChange, and onComplete events, and support defined triggers to control when performances activate. This lets you respond to user actions or system events with timed emotion transitions and gesture sequences.

Each step in a performance combines an emotion with an optional gesture and duration. Timing guidelines (quick for snappy transitions, standard for natural pacing, extended for emphasis) ensure gestures sync with emotion changes, creating coherent multi-step animations that feel expressive rather than jarring.

Single emotion changes apply one state instantly. Choreographed sequences layer multiple emotions, gestures, and precise timings across steps, allowing you to convey intent, feedback, and personality through rich narrative arcs rather than flat state switches.

No. Pre-defined performance patterns and timing guidelines handle animation complexity. You define the emotional arc and gestures you want; the Skill structures them into properly-timed sequences for the emotive-mascot engine.
