- Setting up scene lighting
- Batch-enabling/disabling lights
- 添加或调校灯光、布置场景照明、批量开关灯光

# Unity Light Skills

> **BATCH-FIRST**: Use `*_batch` skills when operating on 2+ lights.

## Operating Mode

- **Approval** (default): mutating skills (`light_create`, `light_set_properties`, `light_set_properties_batch`, `light_set_enabled`, `light_set_enabled_batch`, `light_add_probe_group`, `light_add_reflection_probe`) need user grant; grant triggers a single server-side execution that returns the result.
- **Auto / Bypass**: those skills execute directly.
- Query skills (`light_get_info`, `light_find_all`, `light_get_lightmap_settings`) are `SkillMode.SemiAuto` — they run in all three modes without grant.
- This module contains **no** Delete / PlayMode / Reload / high-risk skills (no NeverInSemi); to remove a Light, call `gameobject_delete` from the `gameobject` module.

## Guardrails

**DO NOT** (common hallucinations):
- `light_add` does not exist → use `light_create` (creates a new light GameObject)
- `light_set_color` / `light_set_intensity` do not exist → use `light_set_properties` (sets color, intensity, range, shadows together)
- `light_delete` does not exist → use `gameobject_delete` on the light's GameObject
- `light_set_shadow` does not exist → use `light_set_properties` with `shadows` parameter ("none"/"hard"/"soft")

**Routing**:
- For lightmap baking settings → `light_get_lightmap_settings` (this module)
- For reflection probes → `light_add_reflection_probe` (this module)
- For light probe groups → `light_add_probe_group` (this module)

> **Object Targeting**: All single-object skills accept `name` (string) and `instanceId` (int, preferred). Provide at least one. `path` (hierarchy path) is also accepted where noted.

## Skills Overview

| Single Object | Batch Version | Use Batch When |
|---------------|---------------|----------------|
| `light_set_properties` | `light_set_properties_batch` | Configuring 2+ lights |
| `light_set_enabled` | `light_set_enabled_batch` | Toggling 2+ lights |

**No batch needed**:
- `light_create` - Create a light
- `light_get_info` - Get light information
- `light_find_all` - Find all lights (returns list)
- `light_add_probe_group` - Add a Light Probe Group with optional grid layout
- `light_add_reflection_probe` - Create a Reflection Probe at a position
- `light_get_lightmap_settings` - Inspect Lightmap baking settings

## Example: Efficient Lighting Setup

```python
import unity_skills

# BAD: 4 API calls
unity_skills.call_skill("light_set_properties", name="Light1", intensity=2.0)
unity_skills.call_skill("light_set_properties", name="Light2", intensity=2.0)
unity_skills.call_skill("light_set_properties", name="Light3", intensity=2.0)
unity_skills.call_skill("light_set_properties", name="Light4", intensity=2.0)

# GOOD: 1 API call
unity_skills.call_skill("light_set_properties_batch", items=[
    {"name": "Light1", "intensity": 2.0},
    {"name": "Light2", "intensity": 2.0},
    {"name": "Light3", "intensity": 2.0},
    {"name": "Light4", "intensity": 2.0}
])
```

## Minimal Example

```python
unity_skills.call_skill("light_create",
    name="Sun", lightType="Directional",
    r=1, g=0.95, b=0.85, intensity=1.2, shadows="soft"
)
```

## Best Practices

1. Use Directional light for main scene illumination
2. Point lights for localized sources (lamps, fires)
3. Spot lights for focused beams (flashlights, stage)
4. Limit real-time shadows for performance
5. Area lights require baking (not real-time)
6. Use intensity > 1 for HDR/bloom effects
