I made a creature (angel) into a hero. It has no melee attack animation, and the attack itself became ranged. Is there any way to attach its sword strike animation or spell cast animation?
so you gave it an animation set — it casts spells fine, but on ranged attack it stands in a T-pose
you need to find its animset; if it's an angel, not an archangel/seraph, the animset is in _(AnimSet)\Creatures\Haven\Angel-adv.(AnimSet).xdb
open the animset and you'll see the animations recorded in it

you need to add a rangeattack entry; if the angel will be both a unit and a hero, it's better to add it — copy an attack or any other animation and rename it; you can copy from the archangel, should work

by the same principle you can add cast baff specability
