API reference

OpenFaceFX is a small, numpy-only library. Everything the CLI does is available as plain functions and dataclasses you can call directly — the top-level package re-exports the public surface:

from openfacefx import (
    generate_naive,            # text + duration       -> FaceTrack  (no models)
    generate_from_alignment,   # time-stamped phonemes -> FaceTrack  (accurate)
    load_mfa_textgrid,         # Montreal Forced Aligner .TextGrid -> segments
    write_json, write_csv,     # serialise a FaceTrack
    write_unity_anim,          # engine exporters (Unity / Live2D / Godot / ...)
    retarget,                  # remap the 15 visemes onto another rig
)

Every stage is a tiny data contract — PhonemeSegment in, FaceTrack out — so any module can be swapped without touching the rest.
