roblox-animation-and-tweening
This skill provides comprehensive, current knowledge of Roblox's two primary motion systems and how they interact with UI, effects, and gameplay. Many models still recommend deprecated APIs or give shallow "use TweenService" advice without the nuances of priorities, caching, IK constraints, marker-driven gameplay, proper UI scale/AnchorPoint usage, or performance tradeoffs.
