AI Summary: The issue reports an overflow exception occurring when too many `PrecacheMPAnim()` functions are called in a map's `Init()` function, typically around 30 animations. This low and varying limit, distinct from the normal asset pool, severely restricts the development of larger mods and total conversions. The request is to raise this specific animation precache limit within the game engine.

AI Summary: The `prek` schema's `FilePattern` definition is incomplete, causing validation failures for `pre-commit` compatible configuration files. Fields like `exclude` that use simple string patterns are rejected because the schema currently only allows object types (regex or glob patterns). The fix requires updating the `FilePattern` definition to explicitly include strings as a valid type.

AI Summary: This GitHub issue proposes creating an interactive setup script (`npm run setup`) to simplify the initial configuration process. The script will prompt users for their Supabase URL/keys and an optional HuggingFace token, then automatically generate the necessary `backend/.env` and `frontend/.env` files, potentially including input validation, to address common user struggles with manual `.env` setup.

AI Summary: The project currently lacks support for streaming OpenUSD files (`.usdc`, `.usda`, `.usdz`), only reading them from disk. While `.usda` files might be importable from strings, `.usdc` and `.usdz` pose a challenge according to community discussions and initial prototyping. The proposed solution involves a deep dive into OpenUSD's capabilities, implementing a solution based on community insights, and adding comprehensive module tests for streaming all USD file types.

AI Summary: This issue outlines a refactoring task to change the `structuredclone::write` function to accept `&mut JSContext` instead of `SafeJSContext`, as part of a larger initiative. It requires updating all its callers, including various `PostMessage` and `StructuredClone` implementations across different scopes, as well as `History` methods, to propagate the `&mut JSContext` parameter. Developers are also expected to update the corresponding `Binding.conf` entries for each modified interface.

AI Summary: The `Snapshot::builder_for()` function fails when the provided table URL lacks a trailing slash, leading to incorrect internal paths and a "permission denied" error. This occurs because Rust's `Url::join()` method replaces the last path segment of the base URL if it doesn't end with a slash, instead of appending to it. The issue specifically affects the construction of the `_delta_log` path.

AI Summary: Enabling `presets.annotationDiscovery` for logs or metrics creates a configuration that depends on the `K8S_NODE_NAME` environment variable. This variable is currently only injected into the pod when `kubeletMetrics` or `kubernetesAttributes` (in daemonset mode) are also active, causing `annotationDiscovery` to fail in other scenarios. The proposed solution involves ensuring `K8S_NODE_NAME` is always present when `annotationDiscovery` is enabled, and potentially making the `node: ${env:K8S_NODE_NAME}` configuration conditional on the installation mode.
