Core

The Core module hosts the EQLabs Hub — the central tool launcher — plus two Release-category tools and all the shared services that power every other tool in the plugin.

4 registered Hub tools (the smallest module by tool count, but the most important by reach — the framework lives here).

Hub tools

• Project Health Dashboard

  Aggregated health score across Assets / Materials / Performance / Blueprints / Animation / Level. The first tool to run on any project.

  Release
• Ship Lab

  From compile to cartridge. Six-phase build / packaging / release pipeline. Custom asset editor (Pattern B).

  Release
• Unreal I/O — Export

  Export selected assets to FBX / OBJ / glTF with pre-export validation, data-loss warnings and a report.

  I/O
• Unreal I/O

  Profile-driven asset import: preflight, staged import, validation, safe fixes, and a published asset with provenance.

Saved data layout

Every tool that persists settings or user data writes to [Project]/Saved/EQLabs/:
