Unity Volume Skills

Shared SRP Volume framework skills for Unity 2022.3+, for URP and HDRP through SRP Core. Parameters come from the schema (`GET /skills/schema?names=<skill>&wire=v2`); execution and dryRun rules: root [SKILL.md](../../SKILL.md).

When to use

• Setting up volumes
• Creating or loading a VolumeProfile
• Adding global or local volumes

Rules

• Without SRP Core every skill returns `{ error: "Scriptable Render Pipeline Core package … is not installed." }` (`RenderPipelineSkillsCommon.NoSRP()`). This is a diagnostic payload, not a permission denial; inspect `project_get_render_pipeline` first.
• Call `volume_list_component_types` before assuming a component type exists on the active pipeline.
• After adding or creating a component, call `volume_get_component` and use the parameter names it returns instead of names from memory.
• `volume_set_parameter_batch` expects `items` as a JSON array string.
• For high-level post-processing effects such as Bloom, DOF or Tonemapping, prefer the [postprocess](../postprocess/SKILL.md) module. This module covers Volume container and profile CRUD.
