What is threejs-syntax-materials?

A guide for loading and configuring Three.js materials, which control how 3D surfaces appear under light, including color, gloss, metal, glass, and cartoon shading.

Use it to set up ordinary or physically based materials, textures, transparent surfaces, fabric, glass, particles, lines, and debugging views.

It helps select suitable materials and avoid texture color, update, and cleanup mistakes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00124	$0.03725
Opus 5.5	$0.00050	$0.01490
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00025	$0.00745
Haiku 4.5	$0.00012	$0.00373

Security

Grade A, and why

threejs-syntax-materials scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Quick Reference

Material Type Decision Tree

Use Case	Material	Why
UI elements, unlit scenes	`MeshBasicMaterial`	Cheapest, no light computation
Matte diffuse (low-end devices)	`MeshLambertMaterial`	Fast diffuse, no specular
Legacy specular highlights	`MeshPhongMaterial`	Blinn-Phong model, not physically correct
General-purpose 3D (recommended)	`MeshStandardMaterial`	PBR metalness/roughness, industry standard
Glass, car paint, fabric, soap bubbles	`MeshPhysicalMaterial`	Advanced PBR (clearcoat, transmission, sheen, iridescence)
Cartoon/anime style	`MeshToonMaterial`	Discrete cel-shading steps
Sculpting previews, no lights	`MeshMatcapMaterial`	Matcap texture, zero light setup
Debug normals	`MeshNormalMaterial`	RGB = surface normal direction
Invisible shadow receiver	`ShadowMaterial`	Transparent shadow catcher
Solid lines	`LineBasicMaterial`	Simple colored lines
Dashed lines	`LineDashedMaterial`	Requires `line.computeLineDistances()`
Particles	`PointsMaterial`	Point cloud rendering
Billboards	`SpriteMaterial`	Always-facing-camera quads

Base Material Properties (All Materials)

Property	Type	Default	Description
`side`	`number`	`FrontSide`	`FrontSide`, `BackSide`, or `DoubleSide`
`transparent`	`boolean`	`false`	Enable alpha blending
`opacity`	`number`	`1`	Requires `transparent: true` to take effect below 1
`depthWrite`	`boolean`	`true`	Write to depth buffer
`depthTest`	`boolean`	`true`	Test against depth buffer
`blending`	`number`	`NormalBlending`	`NoBlending`, `AdditiveBlending`, `SubtractiveBlending`, `MultiplyBlending`, `CustomBlending`
`alphaTest`	`number`	`0`	Discard fragments with alpha below this value
`visible`	`boolean`	`true`	Whether to render this material
`wireframe`	`boolean`	`false`	Wireframe rendering mode
`fog`	`boolean`	`true`	Affected by scene fog
`clippingPlanes`	`Plane[]`	`null`	Array of clipping planes
`clipIntersection`	`boolean`	`false`	Clip where ALL planes intersect (vs union)
`needsUpdate`	`boolean`	`false`	Set `true` to trigger shader recompilation
`toneMapped`	`boolean`	`true`	Apply renderer tone mapping

What ships with it

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

threejs-syntax-materials is a skill published in the GitHub repository Impertio-Studio/Three.js-Claude-Skill-Package (23 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 124 tokens to every session and 3,725 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
