# critic.check

> Talos next · Since next

Deterministic checks of the scene FILE (save editor edits first): unreachable goals, dangling script modules, geometry that cannot be stood on, budgets.

Terrain reachability uses a headless engine's navmesh when built, else warns, marked approximate. Needs the engine's Node CLI (ARGUS_ENGINE_CLI, or a checkout).

| `only` | `string` | no |  |  | Comma-separated check codes to run |
| `page` | `integer` | no |  |  | A page of the last findings, counted from 0, read without running the check again. |
| `scene` | `string` | no |  |  | The scene file to act on. The open scene when absent. |
| `skip` | `string` | no |  |  | Comma-separated check codes not to run |
