Rigify documents rig generation from predefined meta-rigs (scale 1 unit = 1 m; slight knee/elbow bends for direction) but no animation retargeting or humanoid normalisation; its only 'retarget' wording concerns driver rewiring. Curator qualifications: Documentation read 2026-10-22; no rigs retargeted. Bounded to the two manual pages read. Limitations: Documentation read 2026-10-22; no rigs retargeted. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
