SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes guesswork from WebGPU compute work by giving deterministic guidance for image processing, particle simulation, physics, and reduction pipelines, so you avoid race conditions, invalid resource usage, and stale CPU readback bugs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Image Processing: Build tiled blur, convolution, and color grading passes with storage textures and workgroup-shared caching.
  • Particle Systems: Update and render particle buffers correctly with a single shared state buffer and instanced drawing.
  • Physics and Reduction: Use double-buffered simulation steps, multi-pass reduction, and safe subgroup acceleration when available.
  • Use Case: If you need a GPU blur, a stable physics step, or a sum/scan pipeline, this Skill tells you which buffers, formats, barriers, and dispatch counts to use.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I avoid race conditions in WebGPU compute pipelines?

Avoid race conditions in WebGPU compute pipelines by applying correct workgroup barriers, double buffering, and deterministic dispatch sizing to synchronize storage buffers safely.

What is the correct way to size workgroups for a WGSL compute kernel?

Sizing workgroups for a WGSL compute kernel requires calculating deterministic dispatch counts based on your storage texture dimensions, shared memory tiling, and reduction workgroup limits.

How do I implement multi-pass reduction in WebGPU?

Implement multi-pass reduction in WebGPU by using double-buffered simulation steps and workgroup-shared memory tiling, applying subgroup acceleration only when feature-gated support is detected.

Can I use storage textures for image processing in WebGPU?

Yes, you can use storage textures for image processing in WebGPU to build tiled blur, convolution, and color grading passes, provided you select correct storage-capable texture formats.

Why does my WebGPU CPU readback return stale data?

WebGPU CPU readback returns stale data when dispatch ordering is incorrect, requiring strict synchronization between compute passes and buffer copies to ensure simulation steps finish before mapping.

Do I need fallback paths for unsupported WebGPU subgroup features?

Yes, you need safe fallback paths for unsupported WebGPU subgroup acceleration features to ensure physics simulation and reduction pipelines execute correctly across all device hardware.
