 "title": "Keep designed Shaders in sync with your codebase",
 "page_title": "How to keep designed Shaders in sync with your codebase with Shaders",
 "summary": "Use the Shaders CLI to link a project, install designs as files, and pull later edits.",
 "who": "A developer whose team designs effects in the Shaders editor and needs the same versions in the codebase.",
 "problem": "Copying exported code by hand means every later design change has to be copied again.",
 "outcome": "Design files in your components folder that update when you change the design in the editor.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `npx shaders connect` to link this codebase to a Shaders project.",
  "Run `npx shaders install` to pick Shaders from that project and write component files.",
  "Run `npx shaders search \"...\"` with a description to find a preset in the library.",
  "After editing the design in the editor, run `npx shaders update` to pull in the changes."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the shader-effects-inc/shaders repo, use the Shaders CLI to connect <project-path> to a Shaders project, install <shader-name>, and update it. Expected output: the new component files and an updated lock file. Verify that the lock file lists the installed shader.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The CLI needs a Shaders account and project, and the README does not describe how the account link is stored, so review what connect changes before committing.",

 "requirements": [
  "Node.js and npm to install the shaders package",
  "A project using React, Vue, Svelte, Solid, or plain JavaScript",
  "A browser with WebGPU support for the effects to render",
  "A free shaders.com account if you want to use the design editor or CLI sync"
