Language-conditioned humanoid motion generation enables users to create and refine robot movements through natural language. The central challenge is to connect an underspecified request to concrete motion structure that can subsequently be revised relative to an accepted reference. We present TRACE, a generation and editing framework for the Unitree G1 humanoid robot built around typed, measurable kinematic quantities. Our insight is to ground generation conditions in paired training motions and editing goals in the current motion. A language model learns to predict support, root, and hand events from motion-derived supervision; their time-aligned encodings complement the original text in a diffusion generator. Gravity-referenced states and trajectory--contact objectives improve kinematic consistency. For editing, typed requests define body--time scopes and source-relative goals. A separate reference-conditioned diffusion editor uses these goals and revised events to realize changes, while sampling-time projection preserves protected state coordinates. Quantitative evaluation and human assessment show improved semantic alignment and motion quality over the compared methods. Controlled ablations support the value of motion-grounded conditioning and kinematic consistency, while multi-turn editing evaluations demonstrate more reliable execution of successive relative requests under shared preservation constraints. Together, these results support typed kinematic structure as a common basis for motion generation and reference-aware revision.
