Native Three R3F
React Three Fiber native, Three.js in Expo/React Native, expo-gl/WebGPU boundaries, GLTF/assets, native GPU lifecycle, and platform validation.
Operating Contract
Use this skill as a compact router plus domain checklist. Load references only
when the current task matches their condition. Do not cite local scrape paths,
machine cache paths, or hidden source locations. Verify API details against the
target repo's installed package versions before editing.
Source Order
- Inspect the target repo's installed packages, framework/runtime versions,
local design tokens, accessibility policy, and existing motion patterns.
- Use the bundled references below for skill-specific gotchas and copied source
excerpts.
- Use official current docs/package source as API truth when local code or
bundled notes are version-sensitive.
Decision Boundaries
- Use web-three-r3f for browser Three/R3F.
- Use typegpu for web TypeGPU code.
- Use native-skia for 2D canvas drawing.
Workflow
- Inspect Expo SDK, GL/WebGPU package, R3F/Three versions, and asset pipeline.
- Choose native R3F only when a 3D scene is the product surface.
- Own canvas dimensions, DPR/quality, loaders, and cleanup.
- Validate on device/development build for native GPU risk.
Gotchas
- Browser R3F examples often assume DOM/WebGL APIs absent on native.
- Native asset loading and decoder paths differ from web.
- GPU runtime changes need device proof, not just TypeScript.

Audit CLI
node scripts/audit.mjs doctor --root . --format json
node scripts/audit.mjs scan --root . --format markdown
node scripts/audit.mjs scan --root . --format json --output native-three-r3f-audit.json
Treat script findings as leads. Verify every finding against current code before
changing behavior or reporting it as valid.
Closeout
Before finalizing, run the repo's focused validation command, this skill's audit
CLI when relevant, and any browser/device/manual proof required by the changed
surface. Report commands run, findings fixed, findings skipped with reasons,
and residual risk.
