Here's a bit more with some small UX improvements already :) editing while AI responses are streaming in for example and some overlays didn't respect screen edges correctly yet.
Needle retweeted
Well that works already better than expected!!!
Opened doodleshooter.vercel.app/ and asked for shader controls. Found another UX problem which I will fix next but I'm already super happy with this!

Teaching Needle Inspector new tricks!
In the next version the AI will be able to show inline editing tools (complete with undo/picking/...)

We built a fun little side project:
Agent Theater 🎭
Tell an AI agent a story and watch it build a paper stage, cast the characters, and put on a show. You can jump in and direct alongside it!

WOA this is so cool! Did you know that Mesh Baker can voxelize meshes WITH animation? You get a minecraft style block character!
We also just added a direct AI chat integration that can interact with all the features! Super easy and fun to discover and play around

Day 2 of Needle Inspector for ChatGPT and we're almost ready!
I feel very excied about the whole editor work: the foundation is good, the UX works well and it's easy to adapt to whatever platforms we need - everything is AI ready, accessible for both human and machine. Soon in your hands!

just finished the new character model in @threejs, went from 1m5 triangles to 20k.
@NeedleTools helped in the process so thanks to their great product :)

Three.js camera animation is now live in Needle Inspector
→ Physical camera motion
→ Visual path editing
→ Ripple + multi-selection editing & scaling

Alright – It's time to bring Needle Inspector into animation-land! 🎬
The first usecase will focus on making it easy to create cool camera animations! This will lay the foundation for proper animation tools beyond cameras! I'm very excited to finally start working on this!

New in Needle Inspector 2.6
TLDR:
- Much improved free fly camera (persistence, render above, fullscreen, checkerboard backgrounds, pass inspection)
- Save & restore your edits on local or remote websites
- Better popout inspector window per website
- Hierarchy UX and performance improvements
