Volume Skills
Shared SRP Volume framework skills for Unity 2022.3+ — works in URP and HDRP via SRP Core.
Operating Mode
- Query skills (
volume_list_component_types,volume_get_component) areSkillMode.SemiAuto— they run in all three modes without grant. - Mutating skills (
volume_profile_create,volume_create,volume_set_profile,volume_add_component,volume_set_parameter,volume_set_parameter_batch) areSkillMode.FullAuto— under Approval they need user grant (grant triggers one server-side execute returning the result); under Auto / Bypass they execute directly. volume_remove_componentcarriesSkillOperation.Deleteand is auto-forbidden in Approval / Auto modes (NeverInSemi). Only Bypass or the user-managed Allowlist can run it.
SRP Package Stub
This module is compiled against com.unity.render-pipelines.core (SRP_CORE). When neither URP nor HDRP is installed (no SRP Core), every skill returns a stub { error: "Scriptable Render Pipeline Core package … is not installed." } (RenderPipelineSkillsCommon.NoSRP()). The stub is a diagnostic payload, not a permission denial — it does not require grant and is not treated as NeverInSemi. Inspect project_get_render_pipeline first when you see this error.
Guardrails
Routing:
- For Volume container/profile CRUD: use this module
- For high-level modern post-processing effects like Bloom/DOF/Tonemapping: prefer
postprocess
Runtime-first rules:
- Always call
volume_list_component_typesbefore assuming a component type exists on the active pipeline - Use
volume_get_componentafter add/create to inspect the actual parameter names before writing values - Prefer exact parameter names returned by the live component data instead of guessing from memory
volume_set_parameter_batchexpectsitemsto be a JSON array string
