When to use which pattern

Pattern	`pattern`	When to use it
Working	`working`	Busy, processing: particles on orbits. The default "thinking" look.
Searching	`searching`	Looking something up: a globe with a scanning band.
Solving	`solving`	Working through a hard problem: a sphere turning layer by layer.
Listening	`listening`	Taking input: a calm wave surface. Pairs well with the voice level.
Connecting	`connecting`	Establishing a link: a network with pulses travelling along it.
Weaving	`weaving`	Combining things: braided strands.
Composing	`composing`	Writing or drafting: a turning ribbon.
Breathing	`breathing`	Idle but present: a slow ribbon. A good base design.
Shaping	`shaping`	Transforming: dots morphing between icon outlines.
Glowing	`glowing`	Ambient, decorative: an aurora of colour on a sphere.
Drifting	`drifting`	Ambient, calm: a flowing network that sheds particles.
Speaking	`speaking`	Output with sound: a spectrum that follows the voice.
Confirming	`confirming`	Done, acknowledged: a sonar ping.
Initializing	`initializing`	Starting up: a warp field.
Calibrating	`calibrating`	Settling, tuning: dots forming standing-wave patterns.
Progressing	`progressing`	Progress on a round object: an eclipse that advances with `progress`.
Concluding	`concluding`	Wrapping up: dots scattering and crystallizing into a lattice.
Muted	`muted`	Muted or paused: a dimmed, slowly breathing sphere with an optional warning tint.

`nodeSize`	Appearance	number	0–6	20: 1.44 · 32: 1.17 · 64: 0.9	Dot radius.
`rMin`	Appearance	number	0–4 px	0.3	Dots are never drawn smaller than this, in engine units, so far-side dots stay visible at small sizes.
`rsPow`	Appearance	number	0–2	0.6	How dot radii scale with the frame size: radius x (size / 64)^rsPow; lower keeps small sizes chunkier.

Progressing

pattern: "progressing" · mode eclipse · speed 1× · sizes 20, 32, 64

Prop	Category	Type	Range	Default	Description
`ink`	Appearance	number	0–1 fraction	1	How present the whole visual is: 1 draws it as the pattern defines it, lower fades everything including its halos. A voice assistant rests below 1 when idle and comes to full ink when it listens.
`progress`	Inputs	number	0–1 fraction	0.5	How far the eclipse has advanced, 0 to 1.
