Summary
When using agentic coding workflows for complex visual projects (Three.js/Vite, scene-heavy UIs), users need an explicit pre-flight warning and setup checklist before agents begin making scene changes.
Problem
In ambiguous scene contexts, agents may make valid-but-wrong assumptions (placement, camera/framing, flow mapping, asset control hierarchy). This can cause large time loss and repeated rework, especially when no project-specific guardrails are initialized first.
Requested product behavior
Please add a default precautionary warning / best-practices notice before major scene edits, including:
- Confirm project intent before coordinate/placement edits.
- Recommend enabling a dev scene inspector first (object selector, transform/material/animation, keyframe, projection, source-apply).
- Warn that ambiguous instructions (e.g., "build a 1000m curve camera") require explicit constraints.
- Encourage diagnostics-first steps (visibility/frustum/material/clip state) before mutation.
- Suggest setup of explicit logging/functions for fallback behavior.
- Warn that runtime edits should translate back to source (JS/CSS/HTML), not remain ephemeral.
- Include a legal/operational disclaimer for potential productivity loss from ambiguous agent assumptions.
Why this matters
Professional teams often avoid these pitfalls by preconfiguring IDE/engine/pipeline tools. Agentic workflows are different and need first-class safety rails to avoid expensive regressions in real projects.
Suggested UX
A lightweight "Complex Visual Workflow Detected" prompt with checkboxes:
- Require coordinate-confirmation for spawn/root transform changes
- Enable diagnostics mode first
- Initialize scene inspector utilities
- Enable guarded render-loop integration for tool failures
- Enable one-click source sync for interactive edits
This would materially improve reliability and user trust for complex scene development.
