## What it does

The skill frames mobile as the primary surface for controls and performance, not a shrunken desktop. Reach for it when the game already runs in a browser but feels wrong under a thumb.

Three blocks of rules sit inside. Controls: a clear movement scheme, reachable primary actions, target selection, cancel and reset paths, and non-drag alternatives for inventory. Nothing lands in unsafe areas or overlaps another action zone, and held, unavailable and queued actions all give feedback. The responsive HUD covers portrait and landscape viewports — status, target data, inventory, tooltips and dialogs stay legible without covering the playfield, and an orientation change does not reset gameplay state.

The third block is performance and QA. The skill advises device-appropriate quality defaults and adaptive decorative effects. Testing covers touch targets, multi-touch, long sessions, audio unlock, pause and background return, reduced motion, low-end quality and real mobile-size viewports in the repository-approved browser. Without a real phone on hand, half of those checks are guesswork.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add MengTo/Skills --skill build-mobile-threejs-games -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/build-mobile-threejs-games/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/build-mobile-threejs-games/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add MengTo/Skills --skill build-mobile-threejs-games -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/build-mobile-threejs-games/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add MengTo/Skills --skill build-mobile-threejs-games -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/build-mobile-threejs-games/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install MengTo/Skills build-mobile-threejs-games
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/build-mobile-threejs-games/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add MengTo/Skills --skill build-mobile-threejs-games -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/MengTo/Skills --path agent-skills/game-development/build-mobile-threejs-games
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/build-mobile-threejs-games/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add MengTo/Skills --skill build-mobile-threejs-games -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**

## When to use it
- build touch movement a thumb can actually reach
- separate action zones so buttons stop overlapping
- keep the HUD readable in portrait and landscape
- survive an orientation change without resetting the game
- test multi-touch and background return on a real phone

## Example prompts
- build mobile controls for this Three.js game: movement, primary action, cancel
- rework the HUD so it stops covering the playfield in portrait
- run the mobile QA checklist: touch targets, multi-touch, long session, background return

# Build Mobile Three.js Games

Treat mobile as a primary control and performance surface.

## Controls

Provide a clear movement control, reachable primary actions, target selection, cancel/reset paths, and non-drag alternatives for inventory. Keep controls out of unsafe areas, avoid overlapping action zones, and show feedback for held, unavailable, and queued actions.

## Responsive HUD

Design for representative portrait and landscape viewports. Keep vital status, target data, inventory, tooltips, and dialogs legible without covering the playfield. Support orientation changes without resetting gameplay state.

## Performance and QA

Use device-appropriate quality defaults and adaptive decorative effects. Test touch targets, multi-touch, long sessions, audio unlock, pause/background return, reduced motion, low-end quality, and actual mobile-size viewports in the repository-approved browser.
