ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:
texture.wrapS/wrapT,minFilter,magFilter,generateMipmaps,anisotropycolorSpace/ correct handling of sRGB vs linear data maps- Creating

IMPORTANT: textures vs loaders

- "环境贴图", "数据纹理", "压缩纹理"
How to use this skill
- Classify texture dimensionality and format (2D, cube, depth, compressed, data).
- Color pipeline: set
colorSpaceappropriately; normal/roughness maps are non-color data. - Sampling: choose filters; enable mipmaps when minification occurs; consider max anisotropy.
- PMREM: feed env map through
PMREMGeneratorper docs; assign result to scene/env/intensity paths as required. - Video/canvas: understand update needs each frame for
VideoTexture/CanvasTexture. - Disposal:
dispose()textures when replacing to free GPU memory. - KTX2/Basis: transcoder wiring belongs in threejs-loaders before this step.

Scope
- In scope: Core Textures + PMREMGenerator; sampling and color pipeline at texture level.
- Out of scope: Loader configuration; post-processing passes that sample buffers (threejs-postprocessing).
Common pitfalls and best practices
- sRGB albedo in linear workflow without proper colorSpace looks wrong next to renderer output.
- Non-power-of-two textures have mip/wrap limitations unless padded.
- Forgetting texture disposal on hot reload leaks VRAM.
Documentation and version
Texture classes and PMREMGenerator are documented under Textures and PMREMGenerator in three.js docs. Compressed and KTX2 paths often depend on threejs-loaders for transcoder setup before this skill applies.
Agent response checklist
When answering under this skill, prefer responses that:
- Link
Texture,DataTexture,CubeTexture, orPMREMGeneratoras appropriate. - Tie
colorSpace/ filtering to threejs-renderers output and threejs-materials maps. - Send Draco/KTX2 decoder wiring questions to threejs-loaders first.
- Emphasize
dispose()when replacing env maps or large atlases. - Mention Global constants only when wrapping/filter enums matter.
