Reusable shader controls.

Give a custom effect named controls for values such as color, position, and strength.

A single custom effect exposes grouped color, position, angle and spacing parameters. The banded disc rotates through its angle control; the shader and named controls stay reusable.

Try it in your agent.

Use this prompt as a starting point. Review the result, then ask for the details you want to change.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract. Create a Sea/Sky banded circular graphic next to large Exposure type on Bone. Use a custom effect with explicit named color controls, origin x/y, degree angle, and numeric spacing. Slowly rotate the bands through the angle parameter. Deliver the standalone reusable shader and preserve all fields inside the editable project.

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon.

A few useful details.

How do I try this with my agent?

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon. Save the sample prompt for launch. Once Tesseract is installed, your local agent can use it to create, preview, and refine an editable project.

Where does the video render?

Tesseract previews and renders locally on a Mac. The local engine is free; your agent’s subscription or usage costs are separate.
