vork: a headless 3D and VFX engine built for AI agents
A headless 3D and VFX engine written in Rust and Slang that lets AI agents write scenes as code, render them on the GPU, inspect the result and revise.
Why it matters
The first rendering engine built for agents instead of humans: no editor to drive, scenes are programs, and it ships with rendered examples from a million-bird murmuration to a black hole bending light.
What you could build with it
An indie VFX studio could let a coding agent generate product shots and short ads: the agent writes a vork scene, renders frames, checks them against the brief, and iterates without opening a 3D editor.
Does it hold up?
Too early to judge: research preview since 5 Nov; third-party writeups confirm the example scenes render, but no independent builds or benchmarks exist yet.
