VisualBasilisk separates solver output, render planning, metadata reports, and scientific explanations. The goal is a small inspectable bridge from Basilisk-style facet exports to Blender-oriented visualization workflows without bundling simulations or large media.
Current scope
The public repository is a modest v0.3 source snapshot. It includes schemas, tests, tiny synthetic fixtures, and documentation for keeping raw solver artifacts out of GitHub-visible project pages.
What the bridge does
The useful product is the source workflow: check manifests, plan rendering, and keep scientific scope explicit.
Read compact Basilisk-style facet and surface manifests
This step supports reproducible inspection of visualization inputs without turning images into unsupported scientific claims.
Check frame completeness and manifest consistency
This step supports reproducible inspection of visualization inputs without turning images into unsupported scientific claims.
This step supports reproducible inspection of visualization inputs without turning images into unsupported scientific claims.
Run a minimal headless Blender smoke render for tiny synthetic fixtures
This step supports reproducible inspection of visualization inputs without turning images into unsupported scientific claims.
Keep metadata reports, provenance notes, and scientific scope visible
This step supports reproducible inspection of visualization inputs without turning images into unsupported scientific claims.
Current distribution
The v0.3 source snapshot includes code, schemas, tests, documentation, and synthetic fixtures. No package or container is distributed.
Repository
Public source-first v0.3 snapshot
Fixture policy
Tiny synthetic examples only
Render path
Dry-run plans plus one minimal Blender smoke-render route
Distribution
Source and documentation; no package, container, or release
Site status
Public project page
Scientific status
No validation, production-CFD, or fit-readiness claim
What it deliberately avoids
The tool organizes visualization inputs and render plans; it does not create or validate scientific results.
Not a CFD solver
Not a full renderer
Not validation or production CFD
Not an atomisation predictor
Not pressure-nozzle modeling
No real Basilisk fixture is included yet
Next reasonable step
The next development step is a small real Basilisk-derived fixture with explicit input semantics and tests. Until then, the source examples remain synthetic.
