Grammar

{domain}_{role}_{slot}[_{host}][_{corp}_{auth}_{id}]

Token	Values
`domain`	`a` armor · `w` weapon
`role`	`socket` · `spine` · `receiver` · `module` · `plate` · `under` · `flare`
`slot`	Armor: `helm` `chest` `gloves` `belt` `boots` `scapula_l` … · Guns: `barrel` `barreltip` `mag` `optic` `counterweight` `stock` `brace` `grip` `frontgrip` `underlug` + keyed · Melee: `head` `guard` `haft` `pommel` `core` + family aliases (`blade` `talons` `shaft` …)
`host`	Meshes only — guns Class/share (`rifle` `kinetic` `hc` …) + Receiver when keyed; armor mass `light` `med` `heavy`
`corp`	Meshes only — `c1`…`c5`
`auth`	Meshes only — `kit` \| `hand`
`id`	`kit` → `v1`…`v5` · `hand` → stable slug

Rules: sockets never encode corp/auth; meshes do. Armor corp = mesh language. Gun modular corp = finish family. hand = Legendary / Unique / Apex (outside Refit five-packs). Bone name = Soft Object Path stem.

Weapons

Attach order (guns): Spine → Receiver → Barrel (+ tip) → Mag / Optic|Counterweight / Stock|Brace / Grip / FrontGrip|Underlug.

Attach order (melee): Spine → Head/alias → Guard/alias → Haft/alias → Pommel/alias → Core.
Wrist Razors/Claws = Wrist Melee slot only (hotkey 1) — same five parent sockets (Talons / KnucklePlate / HandBrace / Counterweight / Core). Not a Weapon 1–4 family. Art handoff: docs/superpowers/plans/2026-11-08-melee-parts-art-handoff.md.
