Enable trim-start and trim-end for all authored timeline elements (divs,
sections, compositions) — not just video/audio/img. The deterministic-window
gate was overly restrictive since all non-implicit elements have authored
data-start/data-duration that define their timeline window.
Replace iframe reload after resize/move with direct DOM attribute patching
via patchIframeDomTiming(). This eliminates playhead-jump-to-zero, visual
blinking, and race conditions from file-watcher echoes. File persistence
runs in a serialized background queue (persistTimelineEdit + enqueueEdit)
so rapid edits don't overwrite each other.
Add mediabunny-based media probe service (mediaProbe.ts) for fast metadata
extraction from file headers. Timeline elements missing sourceDuration are
enriched asynchronously without waiting for DOM loadedmetadata events.
Tune the runtime media preloader: lower lazy threshold from 6 to 3 clips,
add 3s lookbehind window for reverse scrub, adaptive promoted-clip cap.
Deduplicate getTimelineEditCapabilities — computed once in TimelineCanvas
and passed as a prop to TimelineClip instead of recomputing per clip.
Remove dead PlaybackAdapter re-export from useTimelinePlayer — all consumers
import directly from playbackTypes.
Adds a Blocks tab to the Studio left sidebar with the full 78-item registry
catalog (58 blocks + 20 components). Users can browse by category, search by
title/description, preview CDN-hosted poster thumbnails with video-on-hover,
and install items on-demand with one click or drag-to-timeline.
Core changes:
- BlockCategory type + resolveBlockCategory() for 7 categories (Captions, VFX,
Transitions, Effects, Social, Data, Scenes)
- Registry API routes: GET /api/registry/blocks (catalog) + POST install
- StudioApiAdapter extended with listRegistryCatalog + installRegistryBlock
- Vite adapter reads from disk; CLI adapter fetches from GitHub (24h cache)
- BlockParam interface + params on 6 blocks for future parameter controls
Studio UI:
- 4th sidebar tab "Blocks" with responsive grid, category pills, search bar
- BlockCard: CDN poster thumbnail, video autoplay on hover, duration + WebGL badges
- On-demand install: blocks append as sub-compositions on timeline; components
overlay at start=0 spanning full duration with transparent background patching
- TIMELINE_BLOCK_MIME drag-and-drop to timeline
- BlockParamsPanel (Phase 3 scaffold) auto-opens for parameterized blocks
Registry manifests:
- All 58 blocks backfilled with preview: { video, poster } CDN URLs
- All 20 components normalized to object format + poster URLs added
- 6 blocks annotated with params (Liquid Glass/Background, Portal, Chart,
Logo Outro, Magnetic)
- flowchart-vertical preview generated and uploaded to CDN
Configure fallow via .fallowrc.jsonc so its analysis reflects this repo's
real entry surface, then fix the genuine issues it found.
Fallow noise reduction (601 → 276 dead-code findings):
- Ignore docs/, test fixtures, skill test-corpora, registry/, examples/
- Declare worker entry points loaded dynamically by file path
(pngDecodeBlitWorker.ts, shaderTransitionWorker.ts)
- Declare runtime IIFE entry (core/src/runtime/entry.ts) built outside the
import graph by build-hyperframes-runtime-artifact.ts
- Declare bun:test files in producer + aws-lambda as test entries
- Ignore dynamically-resolved deps: tsup external (puppeteer-core, esbuild,
giget), peer/static-file (gsap in player perf tests), workspace deps
hoisted by bun (happy-dom, @hyperframes/*), and @fontsource/* packages
read via readFileSync in generate-font-data.ts
Extract inline build:fonts scripts:
- packages/{cli,producer}/package.json had multi-line `node -e ...` blobs
containing braces that fallow mis-parsed as glob alternate groups. Moved
to dedicated build-fonts.mjs scripts.
Fix duplicate exports:
- Remove dead FileIcon alias in studio/SystemIcons.tsx (FileTreeIcons.tsx
has the real, used one)
- Consolidate ValidationResult: drop the identical duplicate in
gsapParser.ts; both parsers now import from core.types
- Suppress intentional namespace patterns (per-namespace ML manager
exports; CLI per-command 'examples' convention; fileServer.ts test-only
isPathInside which has different symlink semantics from utils/paths.ts)
Break circular dep (studio/components/editor):
- manualEditsDom.ts re-exported clearStudioPathOffset / clearStudioRotation
/ clearStudioBoxSize from manualEditsSnapshot.ts, which imports four
helpers from manualEditsDom.ts — back-edge cycle
- Re-export moved to manualEdits.ts (the package-public barrel) where the
rest of the snapshot re-exports already live; underlying files now form
a clean DAG
Remove genuinely unused deps:
- studio: motion (no imports anywhere), codemirror (umbrella package; the
@codemirror/* sub-packages are used directly)
- cli: mime-types (plus its only consumer src/utils/mime.ts, which was a
hardcoded mime table that didn't use the package), and its now-stale
tsup external entry
Verified: typecheck across core/cli/producer/studio is clean, oxlint
+ oxfmt pass, manualEdits.test.ts (18 tests) and core parser tests (69
tests) still pass.
Deferred follow-ups (real findings, separate PRs):
- 8 circular deps in producer/services/render/stages/ — renderOrchestrator
↔ captureHdr* / captureStage / extractVideosStage form a hub cycle
- ~14 unused files in producer/src/services/ that look like dead
re-export shims to @hyperframes/engine, but aren't in the public
exports map — need to confirm no deep-import consumers before deletion
- waveform.ts complexity hotspot
