* docs(guides): add performance guide and preview-stutter troubleshooting
Adds a dedicated Performance guide covering preview-vs-render cost model,
expensive CSS patterns (backdrop-filter, filter, shadows), image sizing,
and how to diagnose slow compositions with Chrome DevTools.
Cross-links from troubleshooting (new "Preview stutters" accordion) and
common-mistakes (new "Oversized source images" and "Heavy backdrop-filter
stacks" accordions). Wires the new page into docs.json nav.
Also fixes a pre-commit format hook edge case: oxfmt would exit 2 when
the only staged files matching the format glob were all covered by
.prettierignore (e.g. docs-only changes). Add --no-error-on-unmatched-pattern
to the lefthook oxfmt invocation so docs-only commits are not blocked.

* docs: call out preview performance limits at the entry points
The preview command, studio package, and determinism concept pages all
frame preview as visually equivalent to render — correct for fidelity,
misleading for playback smoothness. A user who reads those pages and
then hits a paint-heavy composition has no way to know why preview
stutters, short of drilling into troubleshooting.
Adds short notes at each entry point linking out to the new Performance
guide, so users hit the "preview is hardware-bound, render isn't"
explanation wherever they land first.

* docs: add prompt cookbook + prompting guide for AI agents
Addresses user feedback that there's no guidance on how to actually
prompt Claude Code (or other agents) once the hyperframes skills are
installed. Adds copy-pasteable example prompts in the README and
quickstart, a new prompting guide page, and a starter-prompt nudge in
the `hyperframes init` output.

* docs(prompting): add vocabulary tables, rules, and TTS voice guide
Merges the best content from the internal prompt guide into
prompting.mdx: easing vocabulary, caption tone table, transition
energy matrix, audio-reactive frequency mapping, marker highlight
modes, TTS voice recommendations, rendering quality presets, and
framework rules (technical requirements vs best practices).

* docs(prompting): rename page title to "Prompt Guide"
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* chore: remove greensock/gsap-skills dependency, fix Math.random nuance
The bundled skills/gsap/ already covers the GSAP surface needed for
HyperFrames compositions. Installing greensock/gsap-skills on top adds
a competing full-ecosystem skill that's mostly irrelevant (ScrollTrigger,
Draggable, SplitText, etc.) and can confuse agents about which GSAP
context to load.
Also adds seeded-PRNG nuance to the Math.random() rule in the prompt
guide (matching the skill's actual guidance).
Removed from: skills.ts, README, AGENTS.md, shared AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md,
and prompting.mdx.

* chore: require minimal reproduction link in bug report template
Adds a required "Link to reproduction" input field asking users to push
a minimal repro to a public GitHub repo (scaffolded via
`hyperframes init repro --non-interactive --example blank`).
Also consolidates the OS/Node/FFmpeg/version fields into a single
"Environment" field using `npx hyperframes info` output — fewer fields
to fill, more consistent data.
Follows the same pattern as Next.js and Gatsby issue templates.

* fix(issue-template): use hyperframes doctor for environment info
`hyperframes info` only prints project metadata (resolution, duration,
elements). `hyperframes doctor` prints the full environment: version,
Node.js, FFmpeg, Chrome, memory, disk, Docker — everything needed to
diagnose bugs.

* docs(prompting): mention validate alongside lint in anti-patterns
Per Vance's review comment — validate catches runtime errors (JS
exceptions, missing assets, contrast) that lint doesn't.

## What
Add 28 transition blocks from the Hyperframe Template Structure catalog, bringing the registry to 53 total items.
### Shader transitions (14 blocks, WebGL, 4s each)
`domain-warp-dissolve`, `ridged-burn`, `whip-pan`, `sdf-iris`, `ripple-waves`, `gravitational-lens`, `cinematic-zoom`, `chromatic-radial-split`, `glitch`, `swirl-vortex`, `thermal-distortion`, `flash-through-white`, `cross-warp-morph`, `light-leak`
### CSS transition showcases (14 blocks, various durations)
`transitions-3d`, `transitions-blur`, `transitions-cover`, `transitions-destruction`, `transitions-dissolve`, `transitions-distortion`, `transitions-grid`, `transitions-light`, `transitions-mechanical`, `transitions-other`, `transitions-push`, `transitions-radial`, `transitions-scale`, `transitions-shader`
## Why
Phase D content accumulation. Transitions are the most-requested category for the catalog.
## How
- Shader transitions extracted from `shader-showcase.zip`, each a standalone HTML with WebGL shaders
- CSS transitions extracted from `showcase-bundle.zip`, each a standalone showcase page
- All tagged with `transition` + `shader` or `showcase` for catalog grouping
- Preview thumbnails generated for all 28 blocks
- Catalog pages + index regenerated
## Test plan
- [x] All 28 blocks produce preview thumbnails
- [x] `registry-item.json` validates for all blocks
- [x] Catalog pages generated (45 total items in catalog-index.json)
- [x] `oxfmt --check` passes
## What
New skill `hyperframes-registry` that teaches AI coding agents how to install and wire registry blocks and components into HyperFrames compositions.
### Skill structure
```
skills/hyperframes-registry/
SKILL.md — triggers, overview, quick reference
references/
install-locations.md — default paths, hyperframes.json config
wiring-blocks.md — iframe inclusion, data attributes, positioning
wiring-components.md — snippet merging (HTML, CSS, JS, timeline)
discovery.md — manifest reading, item fields, available items table
demo-html-pattern.md — why components ship demo.html, structure conventions
examples/
add-block.md — worked example: data-chart block install + wiring
add-component.md — worked example: shimmer-sweep component install + wiring
```
## Why
Phase B of the catalog plan (PR 10). Without this skill, agents using `hyperframes add` have to guess how to wire installed items into compositions. The skill encodes the iframe/snippet patterns so agents get it right on the first attempt.
## How
- SKILL.md frontmatter triggers on: `hyperframes add`, "block", "component", `hyperframes.json`
- References cover every step: discovery, install, wiring blocks (iframe), wiring components (snippet merge), and the demo.html convention
- Two worked examples walk through complete install-to-preview workflows
- Updated CLAUDE.md skills table + trigger rules, README.md skills table, docs/packages/cli.mdx
## Test plan
- [x] `scripts/lint-skills.ts` passes (checked 4 skill files, no issues)
- [x] `oxfmt --check` passes on all markdown files
- [x] SKILL.md frontmatter has valid `name` and `description`
- [x] All reference links in SKILL.md resolve to existing files
- [x] CLAUDE.md, README.md, and docs CLI page updated with new skill
## What
PR 5/17 of the catalog system rollout. Adds the `hyperframes add` verb for installing blocks and components from the registry into an existing project, plus the `hyperframes.json` project config that tells `add` which registry to use and where to drop files. Stacks on #255.
- **`packages/cli/src/commands/add.ts`** — new `hyperframes add <name>` command. Resolves an item, validates target paths, installs files in parallel, builds an include snippet, copies it to the clipboard. Exposes a testable `runAdd(opts)` function; the citty default wraps it with console output + exit handling
- **`packages/cli/src/utils/projectConfig.ts`** — read/write/normalize `hyperframes.json`. Tolerant to missing and partial configs
- **`packages/cli/src/utils/clipboard.ts`** — minimal cross-platform clipboard (pbcopy / clip.exe / wl-copy / xclip / xsel). Zero deps. Gracefully no-ops in headless environments
- **`packages/cli/src/commands/init.ts`** — write `hyperframes.json` during scaffold if not already present
- **`packages/cli/src/cli.ts`** + **`help.ts`** — register `add` under Getting Started (directly below `init`)
Design doc: [Hyperframes Catalog System](https://www.notion.so/heygen/Hyperframes-Catalog-System-Design-Plan-341449792c69813f899dcd53b4c0383a).
## UX
```bash
# Scaffold a project (now writes hyperframes.json too)
npx hyperframes init my-video --example blank
cd my-video
# Add a block — files land, snippet copied to clipboard
npx hyperframes add claude-code-window
# ✓ Added claude-code-window (hyperframes:block)
# compositions/claude-code-window.html
#
# Include snippet:
# <iframe src="compositions/claude-code-window.html" data-start="0" data-duration="6"></iframe>
#
# Copied to clipboard — paste into your host composition.
# Add a component effect
npx hyperframes add shader-wipe
# Headless / CI — no clipboard, JSON output for tooling
npx hyperframes add shader-wipe --no-clipboard --json
```
Running `hyperframes add warm-grain` (an example) errors clearly pointing to `init --example`.
## Docs (bundled in this PR per the tracker principle)
- `docs/packages/cli.mdx` — new `add` subsection under Commands (flags, examples, trigger rules) + new `hyperframes.json` section describing the config file shape
## Tests
- **`packages/cli/src/commands/add.test.ts`** — 11 tests:
- `remapTarget` / `buildSnippet` pure helpers (5 tests)
- `runAdd` integration against a mocked `fetch` registry: block install lands files + returns snippet, component install respects `paths.components` remap, example-typed names throw `AddError` with code `example-type`, unknown names throw `AddError` with code `unknown-item` (4 tests plus 2 covering block default path and non-default path preservation)
- **`packages/cli/src/utils/projectConfig.test.ts`** — 9 tests:
- Write/read round-trip, partial-config normalization, corrupt-file handling, absent-file fallback to defaults, custom paths preserved
- **CLI suite:** 92 passed (was 72 on #255, **+20**). Same 4 pre-existing failures unchanged
## Scope decisions
- **`init.ts` full port to new resolver deferred.** The original plan bundled a removal of the `packages/cli/src/templates/` compat shim. That's ~300 more lines and isn't required for `add` to work. The compat shim from #254 still functions; a separate cleanup PR handles it
- **No ajv runtime schema validation.** Manifests are trusted as schema-valid. Full validation lands when third-party registries arrive (PR 14/15). Path safety is still enforced by the installer's `assertSafeTarget` guard
- **Default project paths stay under `compositions/`.** Blocks → `compositions/<name>.html`; components → `compositions/components/<name>/<file>`. Users override via `hyperframes.json#paths`
## Breaking / migration
**None.** Pure additive — new command, new file types, no existing commands or flags change. `init.ts` now writes `hyperframes.json` but that's a new additional file, not a modification of existing output.
## Stacks on
#255 — base branch. When #255 merges, this rebases onto `main`.
## Next in stack
PR 6 — `feat(registry): seed block — claude-code-window`. First real registry item. Exercises the full `hyperframes add <name>` flow end-to-end against a committed item on `main`.

* docs: replace HeyGen logo with HyperFrames text wordmark
Replace 41KB HeyGen SVG logos with lightweight (~400B) text-based SVGs
rendering "HyperFrames" in Inter semibold with tight tracking, matching
the wordmark style on hyperframes.heygen.com.

* docs: use ABC Solar Display font for logo wordmark
Match the exact font rendering from hyperframes.heygen.com:
- Load ABC Solar Display Bold from HeyGen static assets CDN
- SVGs use 15.2px/600w/-0.15 letter-spacing (matches computed styles)
- Dark mode fill matches rgb(240,240,240) from the website
- Add @font-face in custom.css for site-wide availability

## Summary
Two independent initiatives that improve agent DX and expand HyperFrames' reach.
### Initiative 1: Fix the Clip Animation Footgun
- `gsap_animates_clip_element` lint rule now uses smart detection — only errors when GSAP animates `visibility` or `display` on a clip element
- All other properties (opacity, transform, x, y, scale, etc.) are allowed silently
- This was the #1 agent failure in QA (10/10 agents hit it on v0.2.1)
### Initiative 2: `<hyperframes-player>` Web Component
- New `@hyperframes/player` package — zero dependencies, 3.3KB gzipped
- Iframe-based web component with Shadow DOM for perfect isolation
- Video-like API: `play()`, `pause()`, `seek()`, `currentTime`, `duration`, events
- Controls overlay with play/pause, scrubber (mouse + touch), time display, auto-hide
- Full docs page at `docs/packages/player.mdx`
## Before / After
### Clip animation lint
**Before (10/10 agents hit this):**
```
✗ gsap_animates_clip_element: GSAP animation targets a clip element.
Selector "#title" resolves to element <div id="title" class="clip">.
The framework manages clip visibility — animate an inner wrapper instead.
Fix: Wrap content in a child <div> and target that with GSAP.
```
**After (only errors on actual conflicts):**
```
# This passes lint — no error:
tl.from("#title", { opacity: 0, y: -50, scale: 0.8 }, 0);
# This still errors — actual conflict with runtime:
tl.to("#title", { visibility: "hidden" }, 3);
✗ gsap_animates_clip_element: GSAP animation sets visibility on a clip element.
Fix: Remove the visibility/display tween. Use opacity for fade effects.
```
### Embeddable player
**Before:** No way to embed a composition in a web page.
**After:**
```html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@hyperframes/player"></script>
<hyperframes-player src="./composition/index.html" controls></hyperframes-player>
```
```js
const player = document.querySelector('hyperframes-player');
player.play();
player.pause();
player.seek(2.5);
player.addEventListener('ready', (e) => console.log('Duration:', e.detail.duration));
```
## Test plan
- [x] 427 core tests pass (20 GSAP lint tests with smart detection)
- [x] 7 player tests pass (formatTime + element registration)
- [x] TypeScript compiles cleanly (core + player)
- [x] Lint: GSAP animating clip with safe props → 0 errors
- [x] Lint: GSAP animating clip with `visibility` → 1 error (correct)
- [x] Player builds to 3.3KB gzipped ESM
- [x] Lockfile updated for CI
- [x] Docs page added at `docs/packages/player.mdx`
* feat(docs): add template gallery page with visual previews
* fix(docs): remove invalid MDX heading anchors
* chore: retrigger CI
* feat(docs): merge gallery into templates page with hover-to-play video previews
- Consolidated gallery.mdx and templates.mdx into single templates.mdx
- Moved templates page to Getting Started section
- Added MP4 video previews rendered by hyperframes (hover to play)
- Custom JS for hover-to-play behavior (Mintlify strips JSX event handlers)
- 2-column grid for landscape, 3-column for portrait
- Remotion-style cards with gradient overlay labels
* fix(docs): update broken links after templates page move
* ci(regression): remove scripts/ from regression trigger paths
scripts/ contains dev utilities (lint, versioning, preview generation)
that don't affect the rendering engine.
## Summary
Adds `docs/guides/testing-local-changes.mdx` — a contributor guide explaining how to test unreleased CLI changes against real projects outside the monorepo.
**Covers:**
- `pnpm link --global` (recommended — makes `hyperframes` in `$PATH` point at your local build)
- `node` alias (no PATH changes)
- `npm pack` (test the exact artifact that would be published)
- Troubleshooting (`which hyperframes`, port conflicts, stale builds)
- Table of test scenarios for each bug category
Also registers the page in `docs/docs.json` so it appears in the Guides nav.
Adds a contextual menu to every docs page with options to copy page
content, open in Claude, connect via MCP to Cursor/VS Code/Windsurf,
and file a GitHub issue — all directly from the docs header.

- Logo dark: HeyGen_Logo_Prism_White.svg (gradient wordmark for dark bg)
- Favicon: PRISM_ORB.svg (the new Prism orb icon)
- Brand color: #00C4FF (Prism cyan) replacing #7559FF (old purple)
- Update Mermaid diagram colors in determinism.mdx to match
