Animation pack evidence appendix: Mixamo Locomotion
Companion report: Technical report
Evidence status: partial — source archives were evaluated externally; licensing, runtime, and visual evidence remain unavailable.

Current evaluator: AnimSmith 0.10.0
Report format: 2
This appendix records scrubbed evidence only. The canonical readiness ladder remains authoritative.
Evaluation scope and provenance
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Pack/edition | Mixamo Locomotion; local revision unknown |
| Vendor/source | Vendor identity observed in delivered metadata; listing URL not retained |
| Delivered scope | 20 extracted FBX files from paired archive variants |
| Target use | Engine-neutral marketplace intake |
| Target engines | Not evaluated |
| Target rigs/packs | One declared character identity; cross-pack use not evaluated |
| Source manifest | Scrubbed SHA-256 retained externally |
| Evaluation manifest | mixamo-locomotion.manifest.json; SHA-256 fd7c3927f33234a15ef65784cc08bccf248991c28153601ada44eb10619db0e3; schema urn:animsmith:skill:animation-pack-evaluation-manifest:1 |
| Acquisition/license provenance | No controlling license/readme/terms evidence was delivered; not legal advice |
The evaluation manifest schema is urn:animsmith:skill:animation-pack-evaluation-manifest:1. The validated manifest models every delivered FBX as an opaque other-unknown unit because vendor records were not linked to archive members; 18 remains separate source metadata.

Pipeline-stage coverage
| Stage | Coverage state | Evidence / remaining gate |
|---|---|---|
| Acquire | partially-evaluated | Local archive identity recorded; license terms unavailable |
| Preserve raw | evaluated-clean | Archives were not modified; extraction was external |
| Inspect | evaluated-clean | AnimSmith 0.10.0 inspected every extracted FBX |
| Segment | not-evaluated | Manifest-to-member clip linkage was not established |
| Root motion | partially-evaluated | In-place XZ contract has 0 errors and 1 duration warning; root-motion XZ contract has 6 stationary-root errors and 4 duration warnings; per-clip ownership remains open |
| Conform | not-evaluated | No target contract authorized transforms |
| Validate | partially-evaluated | Mechanical baseline and current variant contracts ran; engine validation deferred |
| Optimize | not-evaluated | No optimization was authorized |
| Export | not-evaluated | No engine-facing export was evaluated |
| Gate/report | partially-evaluated | This scrubbed report retains the evidence boundary |
Readiness evidence by clip set
| Role or runtime set | File-ready / clip-ready | Set-ready / rig-use | Runtime / acceptance boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unclassified delivered corpus | Mechanical baseline completed with no errors | Per-clip intent, loops, and ownership incomplete | Engine, retarget, contact, visual, and gameplay acceptance not evaluated |
Validation-profile status
| Validation profile | Selection | Result / next evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Marketplace intake | selected — observed-pack-capability | External inventory and baseline completed; license evidence remains unavailable |
| Blended locomotion | selected — observed-pack-capability | Runtime sets and engine blend tests not evaluated |
| Root-motion controller | selected — observed-pack-capability | Variant-level ownership differs; choose per-clip policy in the target project |
| State-machine transitions | not-selected | No target state-machine contract supplied |
| Layered upper body/weapons | not-selected | No mask or weapon contract supplied |
| Traversal/environment | not-selected | No target traversal contract supplied |
| Contact actions/interactions | not-selected | No target contact contract supplied |
| Retargeted/customizable characters | not-selected | No target rig or retargeter supplied |
| Motion matching/search | not-selected | No search runtime contract supplied |
| Networked movement | not-selected | No networked movement contract supplied |
| Runtime performance | not-selected | No target hardware/runtime contract supplied |
Pack inventory and content evidence
The external inventory contains 20 FBX files and 18 manifest-declared motions. Archive member counts exceed manifest motion counts by one non-motion/reference asset per archive. Delivered metadata declares 30 fps FBX export preferences, but this is not a target-engine import result.
Mechanical baseline
| Finding/check | Affected scope | Potential impact | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| No mechanical errors | 20 files | File-ready mechanical health only | observed-animsmith, AnimSmith 0.10.0 |
duration-sanity warnings | 5 findings | Two no-track clips and three channel-end mismatches require semantic classification or review | observed-animsmith, AnimSmith 0.10.0 |
constant-track notes | Entire corpus | Hygiene evidence, not authorization to rewrite | observed-animsmith |
AnimSmith remediation evidence
| Source issue | Operation/declarations | Result | Independent verification | Remaining caveat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Variant-level ownership mismatch | FBX fix --dry-run representative | Safe refusal: fix accepts only glTF/GLB | Captured exit 2 and stderr under AnimSmith 0.10.0 | No conversion or transform was authorized |
Engine procedures and evidence
| Runtime | Version | Procedure | Observed result | Remaining gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unity | unspecified | Not run | not-evaluated | Exact import/controller test |
| Unreal Engine | unspecified | Not run | not-evaluated | Exact import/retarget test |
| Godot | unspecified | Not run | not-evaluated | Exact import/AnimationTree test |
| Bevy | unspecified | Not run | not-evaluated | Exact loader/graph test |
Rig, masking, and compatibility evidence
| Pack/rig/set pair | Skeleton/retarget | Scale/axes | Root policy | Timing/blend | Overall evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Delivered corpus / target project | Mixamo profile resolved for lint only | Not evaluated | Archive variant labels insufficient per clip | Not evaluated | unknown |
Limitations and unknowns
- License, target engine, project controller, runtime-set membership, source-to-manifest member mapping, retargeting, visual/contact quality, and cross-pack compatibility remain unverified.
Changes between AnimSmith versions
AnimSmith 0.10.0 — Official v0.10.0 rerun revalidated output schema v19 and measurements schema v18: 20/20 FBX admitted, baseline 0 errors, and the root-motion declaration found 6 stationary-root errors. AnimSmith 0.7.0 (output schema v17; measurements schema v16) is retained historical evidence only.
