# Unreal VFX (Niagara, Chaos destruction, VFX critique)

Expert level means an effect that tells the player the truth (where it hurts, when it is over),
costs what its gameplay class allows across the whole world, and is proven by per-thread numbers on
the target core count plus captures scored against a written rubric. Python cannot author Niagara
emitters or modules (5.8 API): the agent works through templates with a User parameter contract,
Material Instances, Effect Types and Dataflow recipes, and escalates the few graph edits as precise
GUI requests. If a sibling skill named here is missing from your available skills, load it with
`skill_get` (Scenario MCP) or ask the user to install it
(https://github.com/scenario-labs/skills#install); unattended, proceed from tool schemas and flag
the gap.

**REQUIRED BACKGROUND:** scenario-unreal-expert (channels, review loop, 5.8 traps).
