Class InputAssetInfo

What an action asset is, said in the author's own words: a name, a description, and a version.

Remarks

Everything else on the sidecar describes a part of the asset. This describes the whole of it, which the .inputactions file has no room for: it carries a file name and nothing else, so the only account of what an action set is for has been the file name and whatever a reader could infer from the maps.

All three are optional and stay optional. Nothing derives a default, nothing validates the format, and nothing downstream requires a value: an asset with an empty block behaves exactly as it did before the block existed, down to generating a byte-identical constants file. IsEmpty is what every consumer asks rather than testing the three fields itself, so "optional" has one definition.

Version is free text on purpose. Semantic versioning is the obvious convention and most projects will use it, but a project versioning its input schema as 2024-Q3 or rev 12 is not wrong, and a field that refused those would be enforcing a preference rather than a requirement. Nothing in Scylla parses it; it is carried, shown, and emitted verbatim.

IsEmpty

Gets whether nothing has been filled in.

Remarks

Whitespace counts as empty. A field holding a stray space is not information, and treating it as such would put a blank line in a generated header.
