Lists the ready-made moves a character can do (walk in, wave hello, hop, bow, slump, talk...): id, name, length in seconds, the bodies it works on (two legs, four, none), its settings with units, page and links. A does block plays one: {"op": "does", "who": "dog", "behaviour": "c4c:beh:wave_hello"}. q keeps the moves whose words match or that do what a word means (dance finds Groove, scared finds Cower). Example: {"q": "wave"}.
