R3F Router

Routes to 5 specialized React Three Fiber skills based on task requirements.

Routing Protocol

Classify — Identify primary task type from user request
Match — Find skill(s) with highest signal match
Combine — Most R3F tasks need 2-4 skills together
Load — Read matched SKILL.md files before implementation

Quick Route

Tier 1: Core (Always Consider)

| Task Type | Skill | Primary Signal Words | |-----------|-------|---------------------| | Scene setup | r3f-fundamentals | canvas, scene, camera, lights, render, useFrame | | Custom shapes | r3f-geometry | geometry, vertices, bufferAttribute, instancing, mesh | | Surface appearance | r3f-materials | material, shader, texture, uniform, color, PBR |

Tier 2: Enhanced (Add When Needed)

| Task Type | Skill | Primary Signal Words | |-----------|-------|---------------------| | Optimization | r3f-performance | performance, FPS, draw calls, LOD, culling, memory | | Helpers/Controls | r3f-drei | OrbitControls, useGLTF, Text, Environment, Html |

Signal Matching Rules

Priority Order

When multiple signals present, resolve by priority:

Explicit component — "add OrbitControls" → r3f-drei
Specific technique — "use instancing" → r3f-geometry
Problem domain — "custom shader" → r3f-materials
Default tier — Fall back to r3f-fundamentals

Confidence Scoring

High (3+ signals) — Route immediately
Medium (1-2 signals) — Route with r3f-fundamentals as base
Low (0 signals) — Ask user for clarification

Common Combinations

Basic 3D Scene (3 skills)

r3f-fundamentals → Canvas, camera, lights, render loop
r3f-drei         → OrbitControls, Environment, helpers
r3f-materials    → MeshStandardMaterial, textures

Wiring: Fundamentals provides scene structure, drei adds controls and environment, materials define appearance.

Custom Shader Effect (3 skills)

r3f-fundamentals → Scene setup, useFrame for animation
r3f-geometry     → Custom BufferGeometry if needed
r3f-materials    → ShaderMaterial, uniforms, GLSL

Wiring: Fundamentals handles render loop, materials provides shader infrastructure.

Particle System (4 skills)

r3f-fundamentals → Scene, camera, render loop
r3f-geometry     → InstancedMesh, buffer attributes
r3f-materials    → Custom particle shader
r3f-performance  → Optimization, draw call reduction

Wiring: Geometry provides instancing, materials handles particle rendering, performance ensures smooth animation.

Product Visualization (4 skills)

r3f-fundamentals → Scene structure
r3f-drei         → useGLTF, Environment, ContactShadows, OrbitControls
r3f-materials    → PBR materials, environment mapping
r3f-performance  → LOD, texture optimization

Wiring: Drei loads model and provides studio setup, materials ensures realistic rendering.

Large Scene (4 skills)

r3f-fundamentals → Base scene management
r3f-geometry     → Merged geometry, instancing
r3f-performance  → LOD, culling, lazy loading
r3f-drei         → Bounds, Preload, Detailed

Wiring: Performance strategies combined with geometry optimization for smooth rendering.

Decision Table

| Scenario | Model Loading | Custom Shapes | Custom Shaders | Optimization | Route To | |----------|--------------|---------------|----------------|--------------|----------| | Simple viewer | Yes | No | No | No | fundamentals + drei | | Custom geometry | No | Yes | No | No | fundamentals + geometry | | Shader art | No | Maybe | Yes | No | fundamentals + materials + geometry | | Game/simulation | Maybe | Yes | Maybe | Yes | all skills | | Product viz | Yes | No | No | Maybe | fundamentals + drei + materials | | Particles | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | fundamentals + geometry + materials + performance |

Skill Dependencies

r3f-fundamentals (foundation)
├── r3f-geometry (extends fundamentals)
├── r3f-materials (extends fundamentals)
├── r3f-drei (extends fundamentals)
└── r3f-performance (applies to all)

Always start with r3f-fundamentals
r3f-geometry and r3f-materials often used together
r3f-drei can replace manual implementations
r3f-performance applies optimization to any combination

Fallback Behavior

Unknown task type → Start with r3f-fundamentals + r3f-drei
No clear signals → Ask: "What are you trying to render?" and "Any specific effects needed?"
Conflicting signals → Prefer r3f-drei abstractions over manual implementations
