# Planaria - AI-Powered Grasshopper Plugin

## What is Planaria?
Planaria is an AI-powered plugin for Grasshopper, the visual programming environment in Rhino 3D. It generates C# script components from natural language descriptions.

## Key Features
- Natural language to C# code generation
- Automatic error fixing with AI
- Code improvement and optimization
- Conversational interface for iterative refinement
- Visual context understanding (screenshots, geometry)
- Multi-platform support (Grasshopper, Blender)

## Target Users
- Architects using parametric design
- Computational designers
- Rhino/Grasshopper users who want to create custom components
- Anyone who wants to automate Grasshopper workflows without deep C# knowledge

## How It Works
1. User describes what they want in natural language (e.g., "create a spiral staircase with 20 steps")
2. Planaria's AI generates the corresponding C# script component
3. The component is automatically added to the Grasshopper canvas
4. If there are errors, AI automatically fixes them
5. User can iterate with conversational refinement

## Technical Details
- Works with Rhino 7 and Rhino 8
- Windows only (Mac support planned)
- Requires internet connection for AI processing
- Free tier available with usage limits

## Pricing
- Free: Limited usage per month
- Pro: Higher limits, priority support
- Enterprise: Unlimited usage, custom features
