A glowing hub-and-spoke map of every knowledge source your assistant is plugged into. One HTML file, no build step, runs in the browser.

Build a 3D "neural pathway" visualization for my AI assistant: a glowing hub-and-spoke graph showing its connected knowledge sources.
Use Three.js (version 0.174) as the 3D library, loaded via CDN import map, with these addons: OrbitControls, EffectComposer, RenderPass, UnrealBloomPass, and CSS2DRenderer. Single HTML file, no build step.
Data comes from one JSON endpoint returning {nodes, edges} where each node has {id, type, label, color, freshness, detail} and type is one of hub (1, at origin), category (first ring), or leaf (outer). Hub is locked center; categories orbit the hub; leaves cluster around their category with spherical jitter and gentle sin-wave drift.
Render every node as a shader-driven core sphere that breathes based on freshness, wrapped in a translucent halo. Connect them with thin lines and flowing edge particles colored by category. Add a starfield, a soft nebula backdrop, and ambient drifting particles for atmospheric depth. Run everything through UnrealBloomPass for the glow.
Use CSS2DRenderer for HTML labels on hub and categories, OrbitControls with auto-rotate, and a Raycaster for hover tooltips showing the node's label and detail. Pitch-black background, thin sans-serif labels, teal hub with distinct category colors.
Start with a mocked JSON payload so I can see it running before wiring real data.
