threejs-procedural-fields: Design & UI for AI Agents | OpenAgentSkill

Overview

Build coherent procedural scalar and vector fields for Three.js materials and geometry. Use for terrain, planets, wear, biomes, clouds, water masks, displacement, roughness, normals, domain warping, and any visual where several channels must derive from shared causes.

Read full documentation

Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.

Procedural Fields

Do not start by stacking noise. Start by defining the fields the object physically or stylistically needs.

Field contract

Before shader code, write a field bundle:

coordinates
  → macro form
  → meso structure
  → derived causes
  → material channels

Example:

sphereDirection
  → warpedDirection
  → elevation + ridges + craterDepth
  → slope + cavity + latitude + moisture
  → biome + color + roughness + bump

Required workflow

Choose coordinates that remain stable under camera and object motion.
Lock real or perceptual scale for each frequency band.
Create named primary fields. Never hide the whole look in one expression.
Derive secondary fields from causes: slope from normals, shore from sea-level distance, wear from exposure, dirt from cavity.
Reuse the same fields across color, roughness, normal, displacement, emission, and scattering.
Add debug output for every named field.
Filter high-frequency fields by derivatives, tessellation density, or camera distance.

Read references/field-stack-recipes.md before implementation. It records sphere, terrain, water, and structured-placement field contracts plus common parity defects.

Read the procedural planet surface for a shared CPU/GLSL field bundle whose height, continents, climate, biomes, roughness, and normals remain independently inspectable.

Non-negotiable rules

Independent noise per channel produces visual soup. Share structure.
Domain warp the coordinates, not every result.
Warp spherical coordinates tangentially, then renormalize.
Use different frequency bands for silhouette, regions, surface breakup, and micro-normal.
Do not displace geometry with frequencies the mesh cannot represent.
Keep categorical masks broad enough to avoid isolated “bubble” regions.
Parameter names must describe perception: ridgeWidth, coastBlend, cavityDarkening, not noise3Amount.

Routing boundary

Use this skill when the shared field model is the task. Use $threejs-procedural-materials when the task is channel assembly and material response, and $threejs-procedural-planets when the deliverable is a complete planetary body.

# Procedural Fields

Do not start by stacking noise. Start by defining the fields the object physically or stylistically needs.

## Field contract

Before shader code, write a field bundle:

```text
coordinates
→ macro form
→ meso structure
→ derived causes
→ material channels
```

Example:

```text
sphereDirection
→ warpedDirection
→ elevation + ridges + craterDepth
→ slope + cavity + latitude + moisture
→ biome + color + roughness + bump
```

## Required workflow

1. Choose coordinates that remain stable under camera and object motion.
2. Lock real or perceptual scale for each frequency band.
3. Create named primary fields. Never hide the whole look in one expression.
4. Derive secondary fields from causes: slope from normals, shore from sea-level distance, wear from exposure, dirt from cavity.
5. Reuse the same fields across color, roughness, normal, displacement, emission, and scattering.
6. Add debug output for every named field.
7. Filter high-frequency fields by derivatives, tessellation density, or camera distance.

Read [references/field-stack-recipes.md](references/field-stack-recipes.md)
before implementation. It records sphere, terrain, water, and
structured-placement field contracts plus common parity defects.

Read the
[procedural planet surface](../threejs-procedural-planets/examples/procedural-planet-surface/planet-system.js)
for a shared CPU/GLSL field bundle whose height, continents, climate, biomes,
roughness, and normals remain independently inspectable.

## Non-negotiable rules

- Independent noise per channel produces visual soup. Share structure.
- Domain warp the coordinates, not every result.
- Warp spherical coordinates tangentially, then renormalize.
- Use different frequency bands for silhouette, regions, surface breakup, and micro-normal.
- Do not displace geometry with frequencies the mesh cannot represent.
- Keep categorical masks broad enough to avoid isolated “bubble” regions.
- Parameter names must describe perception: `ridgeWidth`, `coastBlend`, `cavityDarkening`, not `noise3Amount`.

## Routing boundary

Use this skill when the shared field model is the task. Use
`$threejs-procedural-materials` when the task is channel assembly and material
response, and `$threejs-procedural-planets` when the deliverable is a complete
planetary body.

Install targets

Codex install prompt

Install the "threejs-procedural-fields" agent skill from https://github.com/scottstts/Threejs-Awesome-Graphics-Agent-Skills/tree/main/skills/threejs-procedural-fields. Read its SKILL.md or equivalent instructions first, install only the files needed for this workspace, and summarize any required setup before using it. Skill purpose: Build coherent procedural scalar and vector fields for Three.js materials and geometry. Use for terrain, planets, wear, biomes, clouds, water masks, displacement, roughness, normals, domain warping, and any visual where several channels must derive from shared causes. After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {"event_id":"install_<unique-id>","skill_slug":"scottstts-threejs-procedural-fields","task":"Install threejs-procedural-fields","agent":"codex","outcome":"success","install_used":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes. Recorded instruction path: skills/threejs-procedural-fields/SKILL.md. Recorded revision: 04856286f29b9b6e0730e798bd943753492278c3. Confirm the source matches these instructions.
