`lintAudioSrcNotFound` resolves every `<audio src>` against the project
root, which is correct for index.html but wrong for sub-compositions —
their srcs are written relative to the sub-composition file (e.g.
`../assets/foo.mp3`), and the bundler rewrites them at compile time.
Carry the sub-composition path alongside each html source and run
`<audio src>` strings starting with `../` through the existing
`rewriteAssetPath` helper before checking existence on disk. Mirrors the
runtime/bundler behaviour so the lint check sees the same path the
renderer will fetch.
Original (un-rewritten) src is still surfaced in the finding message so
authors can grep for it in their HTML.
* fix(cli): shut down preview embedded-mode server on Ctrl+C
runEmbeddedMode awaited a promise that never resolved, relying on Node
to exit on SIGINT. Two things kept that from working in practice:
1. @hono/node-server's listening handle keeps the event loop alive after
the signal fires, so the process hangs even when SIGINT does arrive.
2. On Windows, some terminals (Git Bash / MSYS) don't deliver Ctrl+C to
the Node process as a SIGINT at all — the keystroke is eaten at the
TTY layer.
Register a SIGINT/SIGTERM handler that closes the server explicitly and
resolves the promise, with a 2s force-exit fallback. On Windows, run a
readline interface on stdin to catch Ctrl+C at the TTY and re-emit it
as SIGINT so the same handler fires.
Print "Shutting down studio..." as soon as the signal is received —
server.close() can take a second or two to drain keep-alive connections
and an unmarked pause reads as "stuck".
Exit code 0 because a user-initiated Ctrl+C isn't an error; non-zero
codes make pnpm print ELIFECYCLE right where the user just asked the
process to stop.
* fix(cli): close readline interface in shutdown to honour exit-code intent
After the SIGINT handler removes itself, the Windows readline interface
is still alive and listening. A second Ctrl+C during the 2s grace
period would re-emit SIGINT with no registered handler, triggering
Node's default exit-130 behaviour and contradicting the explicit
exit(0) we chose for clean teardown.
Hoist the readline handle out of the win32 branch so shutdown can
close it before invoking server.close(). Also pass the signal name
to process.emit("SIGINT", "SIGINT") to match Node's ProcessEvents
overload — runtime behaviour is unchanged.
## Summary
- preserve alpha for render-injected video frames by detecting alpha streams with ffprobe and extracting alpha video frames as PNG
- keep `<video loop>` semantics through static parsing, compiler duration resolution, browser media discovery, and render frame lookup
- fail embedded preview startup before opening a broken browser page when the Studio bundle is missing
- align snapshot frame injection with looped media timing and VP9 alpha extraction
## Why
The Studio preview and rendered MP4 could disagree for timed transparent looped videos. The Comfy funding composition exposed two separate parity bugs: render-injected frames needed alpha-preserving PNG extraction, and the compiler was clamping a looped `data-duration="4"` video down to the 3.125s source duration. After the first source cycle, render lookup treated the video as inactive, hid the native video, and produced the blank polygon/glow the user saw around the rounded `0:03` mark.
`hyperframes lint` and `hyperframes validate` did not catch this because they check syntax/load/console/accessibility, not preview-vs-render visual parity. This PR adds regression coverage for the compiler loop-duration path and frame lookup path.

## What
Forwards the new per-phase extraction breakdown and `tmpPeakBytes` fields from `RenderPerfSummary` (added in #444 and #446) to PostHog via the CLI's existing `render_complete` telemetry event.
## Why
The CLI already ships `render_complete` events to PostHog (`packages/cli/src/telemetry/client.ts`), but `events.ts:trackRenderComplete` only carried a subset of `RenderPerfSummary` — top-level timings, composition dims, and memory snapshots. After #444 added per-phase extraction breakdown (`videoExtractBreakdown`) and #446 added cache hit/miss counters, the data lives on `job.perfSummary` at render-complete but never reaches PostHog dashboards.
Without this, any PostHog insight built around "how often are we hitting the cache?", "what's the median HDR preflight cost?", or "where in the extract phase do compositions spend time?" has to be answered by Datadog log scraping instead.
## How
- **`packages/cli/src/telemetry/events.ts`** — extend `trackRenderComplete` props with 17 new optional fields: `tmpPeakBytes`, the six named stage timings, and the ten `videoExtractBreakdown` fields. All sent as flat properties (`extract_cache_hits`, `stage_capture_ms`, etc.) — PostHog insights query flat keys more ergonomically than nested objects.
- **`packages/cli/src/commands/render.ts`** — wire `job.perfSummary.videoExtractBreakdown` / `stages` / `tmpPeakBytes` into the `trackRenderMetrics` → `trackRenderComplete` hand-off.
- Naming: `extract_phase3_ms` deliberately disambiguates from `stage_video_extract_ms` — the former is just the parallel ffmpeg extract inside Phase 3; the latter is the full stage (resolve + probe + preflight + extract).
- All new fields are optional. The Docker-subprocess branch of `render.ts` that doesn't have a local `perfSummary` still compiles and ships events without them.
## Test plan
- [x] `bun run --cwd packages/cli test` — 161/161 pass
- [x] `bunx tsc -p packages/cli/tsconfig.json --noEmit` — no errors
- [x] `bunx oxlint` + `bunx oxfmt` — clean
- [ ] Once merged, verify PostHog receives the new properties on a real render event (run `hyperframes render` against a fixture and watch PostHog ingestion — telemetry auto-disables in CI, so this requires a local dev render with `HYPERFRAMES_NO_TELEMETRY` unset).
## Stack
Depends on #444 (adds the `videoExtractBreakdown` + `tmpPeakBytes` fields to `RenderPerfSummary`) and transitively on #445 → #446.
## Future work (not in this PR)
- The HeyGen internal producer server (`hyperframes-internal/packages/producer/src/server.ts`) logs `perfSummary` to Datadog via `log.info` but has no PostHog integration. Production renders are the bulk of the traffic — separate PR to either ship perfSummary to PostHog from the internal server, or materialize Datadog log-based metrics for per-phase timings.
## Summary
Extract the `frameDirMaxIndexCache` from a private module-scoped Map inside `renderOrchestrator.ts` into its own `frameDirCache.ts` module, then add a 11-test bun:test suite that pins the cross-job isolation contract added in Chunk 5B.
## Why
`Chunk 9E` of `plans/hdr-followups.md`. The cache lived as a private Map inside `renderOrchestrator.ts`, which made the cross-job isolation contract from Chunk 5B impossible to unit-test directly. Extracting it both makes the contract testable and reduces orchestrator complexity slightly.
## What changed
- New `packages/producer/src/services/frameDirCache.ts` exposes `getMaxFrameIndex` / `clearMaxFrameIndex` / `getMaxFrameIndexCacheSize` (plus a test-only `__resetMaxFrameIndexCacheForTests` helper). Behavior is unchanged: callers still get the same module-scoped sharing inside a job, and `renderOrchestrator`'s outer `finally` still clears every entry it registered so the cache cannot grow monotonically across renders.
- `renderOrchestrator.ts`: imports the new helpers, drops the unused `readdirSync` import, updates inline comments, and replaces two `frameDirMaxIndexCache.delete` sites with `clearMaxFrameIndex`.
- New `frameDirCache.test.ts` (bun:test, 11 tests) covering:
- Reading the max index from a populated directory.
- Ignoring filenames that don't match `frame_NNNN.png` (wrong ext, wrong prefix, wrong case, double extension, empty index group, same-named subdirectory).
- Empty- and missing-directory paths returning `0` and being cached.
- Intra-job invariant: subsequent readdir mutations not observed once cached.
- `clearMaxFrameIndex` forcing a re-read; returns `false` for paths that were never cached.
- Per-directory isolation when multiple directories are registered.
- The cross-job contract from Chunk 5B: cache empty between well-behaved jobs, doesn't grow monotonically across 20 simulated renders with 3 HDR videos each (steady-state cache size stays at 3), and a buggy job that forgets to clear leaks exactly its own entries rather than affecting unrelated jobs.
## Test plan
- [x] `frameDirCache.test.ts` 11/11 pass.
- [x] Existing producer tests unchanged.
- [x] Behavior preserved: same module-scoped sharing inside a job, same outer-`finally` eviction.
## Stack
Chunk 9E of `plans/hdr-followups.md`. Test-driven extraction; complements Chunk 5B.
Guard buildHyperframesRuntimeScript() against missing entry.ts so it
returns null instead of crashing with esbuild stderr output. Add
getHyperframeRuntimeScript() that returns the pre-built IIFE as a
baked-in string constant — no esbuild, no file I/O, no import.meta.url.
Consolidate CLI runtime source resolution into a single module with
a clear priority chain: esbuild from source (dev) → inlined constant
(production) → pre-built artifact file (fallback).
Add CI smoke test that npm-packs the CLI, installs globally, runs
hyperframes preview, and asserts no stderr errors + runtime endpoint
returns JS.
Bump version to 0.4.16.
* fix(cli): resolve runtime fallback for globally-installed hyperframes
When hyperframes is installed globally via npm, the `loadRuntimeSourceFallback()`
path that dynamically imports @hyperframes/core and runs esbuild fails because
@hyperframes/core is inlined into cli.js and import.meta.url resolves to the
wrong location for the entry.ts source file.
Add a disk-based fallback that searches for the pre-built IIFE runtime artifact
in multiple locations:
- Alongside the bundled CLI (dist/hyperframe-runtime.js, dist/hyperframe.runtime.iife.js)
- Walking up from __dirname through node_modules
The esbuild path is tried first to preserve live-rebuild behavior in dev,
with the pre-built artifact search as a safety net for the bundled context.
Also adds the IIFE artifact name variant to resolveRuntimePath() in the
studio server so it checks both naming conventions.
* fix(cli): gate esbuild fallback on source availability
The previous fix still triggered esbuild's stderr output before the
catch could suppress it. Now check whether the runtime entry.ts source
file actually exists before attempting the on-the-fly build, avoiding
the noisy error in global installs entirely.
* fix(cli): remove noisy console.warn from runtime fallback
The caller already handles a null return — no need to warn about
something the user can't act on. If both paths fail, the /api/runtime.js
route returns a 404 which the studio handles gracefully.
* style(engine): fix oxfmt trailing blank line in chunkEncoder test
* fix(cli): guard against null/undefined from loadHyperframeRuntimeSource
Fall through to the pre-built artifact if the function returns a
falsy value without throwing.
* refactor(cli): consolidate runtime source resolution into single module
Replace the scattered path-probing logic with a single loadRuntimeSource()
that encodes the full priority chain: esbuild from source (dev only,
gated on entry.ts existence) → pre-built artifact alongside cli.js →
core/dist artifact → node_modules walk.
Rename loadRuntimeSourceFallback → loadRuntimeSource since it's now
the primary resolution function, not a fallback.
## Summary
This PR adds `hyperframes publish` as the OSS handoff into the persisted HyperFrames publish flow.
Instead of opening a local tunnel, the CLI now:
1. zips the local project
2. uploads it to the HeyGen publish backend
3. gets back a stable `hyperframes.dev` project URL plus claim token
4. prints a claimable URL for the user
Example output:
```bash
$ hyperframes publish
Project my-video
Files 12
Public https://hyperframes.dev/p/hfp_123?claim_token=...
Open the URL on hyperframes.dev to claim the project and continue editing.
```
## User Flow
The intended user flow is:
1. Run `hyperframes publish` from a local HyperFrames project.
2. The CLI uploads the project as a zip to the publish API.
3. The CLI prints a stable `hyperframes.dev` URL with the claim token attached.
4. The user opens that URL in the browser.
5. `hyperframes.dev` uses that URL to claim the published project and import it into the web app.
6. The user continues editing from a normal web session.
So the CLI is only responsible for packaging, upload, and printing the URL. The browser-side claim/import flow lives in the backend and web app stack.
## Routing
This PR does not expose a separate user-facing canary mode.
The CLI posts to the normal publish API host:
- `https://api2.heygen.com/v1/hyperframes/projects/publish`
Backend routing behavior is handled server-side. If the default path routes through canary, it does so without a dedicated CLI flag; if that path is unavailable, traffic falls back to prod behavior on the backend side.
## What Changed
| File | Role |
|---|---|
| `packages/cli/src/commands/publish.ts` | Adds the `hyperframes publish` command, confirmation prompt, lint-before-upload behavior, and user-facing output. |
| `packages/cli/src/utils/publishProject.ts` | Zips the local project, filters ignored files/directories, posts the archive to the publish API, and returns the published project metadata. |
| `packages/cli/src/utils/publishProject.test.ts` | Covers archive creation and successful upload response parsing. |
| `packages/cli/src/cli.ts` | Registers the new `publish` command. |
| `packages/cli/src/help.ts` | Adds `publish` to root help and examples. |
| `docs/packages/cli.mdx` | Documents the persisted publish flow. |
## Important Behavior
- Requires `index.html` at the project root.
- Ignores hidden files and common non-project directories like `.git`, `node_modules`, `dist`, `.next`, and `coverage`.
- Lints the project before upload and prints findings, but does not block publish on warnings.
- Does **not** keep a local process alive after upload.
- Does **not** open a public tunnel.
- Does **not** require HeyGen OAuth inside the CLI.
## Why This Shape
This keeps the OSS CLI simple and matches the current product direction:
- project persistence lives in HeyGen's backend
- the public URL comes from the persisted project row
- claiming/importing happens on `hyperframes.dev`
- the CLI should not own browser auth or long-lived sharing infrastructure
## Verification
In the earlier PR worktree, this flow was verified locally with the CLI build/test path and with real backend integration.
In this cleanup worktree, the narrow code/doc change was verified by inspection, but the repo-level commands are currently blocked here by missing local tool binaries and typings in the worktree environment:
- `bun run --filter @hyperframes/cli test` -> `vitest: command not found`
- `bun run --filter @hyperframes/cli typecheck` -> local dependency/type resolution failures outside this diff
- `bun run --filter @hyperframes/cli build` -> `tsx: command not found`
## Notes
This PR only covers the OSS CLI side of the flow.
The full end-to-end experience depends on the corresponding backend and `hyperframes.dev` changes that store published projects, return the stable URL, and support claim/import in the web app.
## Summary
- preserve authored non-root composition timing before runtime sanitization so Studio can build the correct master timeline for chained subcompositions
- prefer the fresh runtime source in Studio dev so local preview does not serve a stale `/api/runtime.js`
- restrict preserved authored timing inference to the Studio timeline payload instead of the general runtime resolver
## What this fixes
This PR fixes the Apple presentation class of failures where the root `index.html` / `Master` view looked correct at first and then collapsed into an incorrect short timeline.
Before this change:
- the master transport could report a short duration like `0:12` instead of the real deck length (`2:21` in the Apple project)
- composition clips bunched near the start instead of laying out sequentially across the deck
- seeking into later parts of the deck would land in the wrong place or show the wrong active composition
- local Studio debugging could be misleading because dev sometimes served a stale runtime bundle
After this change:
- the master transport reflects the authored composition-chain duration
- master clips resolve linearly across the whole deck
- late seeks land on the correct slide window
- Studio dev uses the current runtime implementation, so local preview matches the branch you are testing
## Root cause
There were two related issues:
1. Studio/master timeline inference lost authored composition timing
- missing timing attrs were treated like `0` instead of `null`
- non-root composition `data-duration` / `data-end` were stripped before Studio timing resolution could use them
- root duration inference trusted an incomplete live timeline window instead of the authored composition chain
2. Preserved authored timing leaked into the general runtime resolver
- preserving authored timing was correct for Studio timeline payload generation
- but using those preserved attrs for normal runtime playback/render resolution caused visual regressions in producer CI
- the follow-up fix keeps authored timing available only for Studio payload collection while normal runtime playback continues to resolve from the real live timeline/media state
## Why the later regression fix was needed
The initial runtime change fixed the Apple master timeline, but it also widened timing inference in the core runtime too far. That caused Dockerized producer regressions because rendered visibility started respecting preserved authored timing where it should have relied on the live resolved runtime state.
The latest commit fixes that by splitting the behavior:
- Studio timeline payload: authored timing allowed
- general runtime resolver: authored timing ignored by default
That preserves the Apple master timeline fix without changing producer render semantics.

### Browser proof
Tested in Studio with `agent-browser` against the Apple presentation project.
- root/master transport now shows `0:00 / 2:21`
- master clip manifest resolves sequentially (`slide-1 -> slide-2 -> slide-3 ...`)
- seeking to `120s` lands on a late slide instead of a collapsed early timeline state
- after refreshing onto the fresh runtime source, the visible later-slide media advanced correctly in local Studio playback
### CI-equivalent regression proof on devbox
The previously failing producer regressions were rerun on devbox using the same Dockerized path GitHub Actions uses:
- `docker build -f Dockerfile.test -t hyperframes-producer:test .`
- `docker run ... hyperframes-producer:test style-1-prod style-5-prod style-9-prod style-12-prod --sequential`
Those previously failing suites all passed after the runtime split fix:
- `style-1-prod`
- `style-5-prod`
- `style-9-prod`
- `style-12-prod`
## Notes
- the Apple project volume tweak stayed local-only for testing and is not part of this PR
- this PR fixes the master/root timeline bug and the runtime regression it introduced; it does not add general subtimeline authoring support
## Summary
- replace the unsupported `data-var-*` example with the current `data-variable-values` pattern
- document that variable values are carried through but still applied manually inside the nested composition
- add matching reference notes in the data-attributes, HTML schema, core package, and CLI docs
## Verification
- `npx mintlify dev --port 3100`
- browser verification with `agent-browser` on `/concepts/compositions` and `/reference/html-schema`
- proof artifacts saved locally under `tmp/issue-416-docs/`
## Summary
Stabilize the Studio preview/runtime path so timeline data, preview rendering, and thumbnails stay in sync.
This PR includes:
- preview hot-refresh without remounting the iframe
- runtime duration/timeline fixes so Studio stops drifting from playback state
- thumbnail and selector-based preview fixes
- local Studio runtime serving and player-resolution fixes so dev/CI do not depend on prebuilt player artifacts
- tests around preview identity and thumbnail/runtime behavior
## Why This PR Exists
This is the foundation layer for timeline editing. Without it, the editor was prone to:
- iframe remount flashes after saves
- duration mismatches between preview and timeline
- stale or incorrect thumbnails
- CI/test failures when `@hyperframes/player` artifacts were not prebuilt

## Summary
Today users have to run `hyperframes upgrade` (or the right install command for their package manager) to get a new release — we ship fixes but they don't reach the install until the user remembers. This PR borrows the Claude Code model: detect the update on run N, install it in a detached background child, surface one line ("hyperframes auto-updated to vX.Y.Z") on run N+1. The user's current command never blocks, never prompts, never sees an install stream.
## Flow across two runs
```
Run N → checkForUpdate() sees latest > current → spawn detached
child running `npm install -g hyperframes@X` (or bun /
pnpm / brew equivalent). Parent exits immediately.
(between) → detached child installs, writes completedUpdate into
~/.hyperframes/config.json, clears pendingUpdate.
Run N+1 → reportCompletedUpdate() prints one line and clears the
marker. User is on the new version.
```
## Installer detection
Walks `realpathSync(process.argv[1])` against each package manager's well-known global prefix. Wrong guesses are biased toward `skip` — we'd rather miss an auto-update than clobber a Homebrew install with npm.
| Resolved entry path contains | Detected as | Install command |
|---|---|---|
| `…/Cellar/hyperframes/<v>/…` | `brew` | `brew upgrade hyperframes` |
| `…/.bun/…` | `bun` | `bun add -g hyperframes@<v>` |
| `…/pnpm/global/…` or `…/.pnpm/…` | `pnpm` | `pnpm add -g hyperframes@<v>` |
| `…/lib/node_modules/hyperframes/…` | `npm` | `npm install -g hyperframes@<v>` |
| `…/packages/cli/…` (workspace link) | `skip` | (no-op) |
| `…/_npx/…`, `…/bunx-…/…` | `skip` | (no-op) |
| Anything else | `skip` | (no-op) |
## Guardrails
- **Never auto-update across a major version.** The existing banner still nudges the user to run `hyperframes upgrade` explicitly.
- **Skip on CI, non-TTY, dev mode,** npx / bunx / workspace link, or any install layout the detector doesn't recognize.
- **`HYPERFRAMES_NO_AUTO_INSTALL=1`** disables the install without silencing the notice banner.
- **`HYPERFRAMES_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1`** silences both (existing knob).
- **Fresh pending install (<10 min old)** prevents re-launch on every invocation.
- **Installer stdout + stderr go to `~/.hyperframes/auto-update.log`** for postmortem — the terminal stays clean.
- **Failed installs are surfaced once** with a prompt to run `hyperframes upgrade` manually.
## What changed
| File | Role |
|---|---|
| `packages/cli/src/utils/installerDetection.ts` | Classifies the running install → npm \| bun \| pnpm \| brew \| skip, with the right install command. |
| `packages/cli/src/utils/autoUpdate.ts` | `scheduleBackgroundInstall` + `reportCompletedUpdate`. Spawns a detached `node -e "..."` child that runs the install and writes the outcome back to the config, then `unref()`s so the parent exits immediately. |
| `packages/cli/src/telemetry/config.ts` | `pendingUpdate` + `completedUpdate` fields on the config schema. |
| `packages/cli/src/cli.ts` | Wires `reportCompletedUpdate()` at startup and `scheduleBackgroundInstall()` after `checkForUpdate()` resolves. |
## Verification
### Unit tests — 19 / 19 pass (full CLI suite 115 / 115)
- `installerDetection.test.ts` — 9 cases, one per layout (workspace, npx, bunx, brew, bun, pnpm, npm, unknown, unresolved).
- `autoUpdate.test.ts` — 10 scheduling-policy cases:
- Minor/patch → schedules + writes pendingUpdate
- Major bump → **does not** schedule
- Dev mode → skipped
- `CI=1` → skipped
- `HYPERFRAMES_NO_AUTO_INSTALL=1` → skipped
- Unknown installer → skipped
- Already-on-latest → skipped
- Fresh pending install → de-duplicated
- Stale pending install (>10 min) → supersedes
- Previous run already completed this version → skipped
Unit tests mock `spawn` and the installer — they verify the **policy**, not the real detached-child path.
### Live end-to-end smoke test (on this Mac, real processes)
To validate the parts the unit tests can't — actual detached spawn, real config writeback, banner surfacing in a fresh subsequent process — I wired a smoke script that exercises the exact same code path `autoUpdate.ts` uses, but with `echo …` as the "install command" so nothing global gets touched.
**Steps exercised:**
1. Backed up the user's real `~/.hyperframes/config.json`.
2. Wrote a `pendingUpdate` marker for version `0.4.99` (like `scheduleBackgroundInstall` does).
3. Spawned the **exact same detached `node -e "..."` child** the real scheduler produces, with the install command replaced by `echo 'faux install for 0.4.99'`.
4. The parent `unref()`d and continued; 800 ms later the parent re-read `config.json`.
5. Ran `reportCompletedUpdate()` in a **fresh subprocess** (via `bunx tsx -e ...`) to match the real "Run N+1" conditions, capturing its stderr.
6. Asserted the marker was cleared.
7. Restored the original config on exit.
**Observed output:**
```
[setup] Backed up config to /Users/miguel/.hyperframes/config.json.smoke-backup
[setup] Wrote pendingUpdate for v0.4.99
[spawn] Detached child pid=49469
[after] completedUpdate = {"version":"0.4.99","ok":true,"finishedAt":"2026-04-17T17:26:50.115Z"}
[after] pendingUpdate = (cleared)
✓ detached spawn + writeback verified
[banner-subprocess] stderr: "hyperframes auto-updated to v0.4.99"
✓ banner fired in fresh process + marker cleared
ALL CHECKS PASSED ✓
[cleanup] Config restored
```
**What this proves:**
| Claim | Evidence |
|---|---|

Both the original test-plan checkboxes (fresh install, `HYPERFRAMES_NO_AUTO_INSTALL=1`, `CI=1`) are covered by either the unit-test suite or this smoke test — the scheduling-policy gates are unit-tested under `CI=true`, and the real detached-spawn path is smoke-tested above.
### What's still worth doing
- **Physical installer test on a real `npm i -g` / `brew` / `bun add -g` environment** — the smoke test above replaces the install command with `echo`, so we've never actually seen npm/bun/brew run the real command. That's the one remaining unknown. Worth one manual run on the maintainer's machine before cutting v0.4.4.
## Test plan
- [x] `bunx vitest run` on `packages/cli` — 115 / 115 pass (incl. 19 new)
- [x] `tsc --noEmit` clean
- [x] `tsup` build clean
- [x] **Live e2e smoke test** exercising the real detached spawn + config writeback + fresh-process banner (output above)
- [x] CI green on this branch (Typecheck, Test, Test: runtime contract, Build, Lint, Format)
- [ ] One manual run on a physical `npm i -g hyperframes@0.4.2` install to confirm the real `npm install -g hyperframes@0.4.3` command actually runs when `autoUpdate.ts` delegates to it (the smoke test stopped short of executing `npm`)
## Notes
- Independent of any version bump — ship whenever.
- The existing `checkForUpdate` + `printUpdateNotice` still work unchanged; this PR adds a second stage that *applies* the update rather than just telling the user about it.
- `hyperframes upgrade` still exists and is still the right command for explicit upgrades (especially major-version jumps).
## Summary
This PR ended up covering the full HDR Docker/docs follow-through plus the producer/engine work needed to make HDR still images render and regress correctly in CI.
The branch now does four things:
- forwards `--hdr` through the Docker render path in the CLI
- adds and expands HDR documentation across the docs site
- adds first-class HDR still-image support to the engine/producer pipeline
- adds targeted HDR regression coverage, including a CI-safe fallback for PNG HDR metadata detection when `ffprobe` does not expose PNG color tags
## What changed
### CLI and docs
- `hyperframes render --docker --hdr` now preserves `--hdr` when invoking the in-container CLI
- added a dedicated HDR guide and linked it from CLI, producer, engine, rendering, and common-mistakes docs
- documented HDR constraints and verification flow: HDR source requirements, MP4/H.265 Main10 output, PQ/HLG handling, Docker usage, and common SDR fallback causes
### Engine and producer HDR image support
- added `ImageElement` support to the engine composition model and parsing path
- threaded image elements through producer compilation and orchestration
- probed image sources for HDR color spaces so image-only compositions can trigger HDR output without requiring an HDR video source
- included HDR image start times in stacking queries so the layered compositor can place images correctly in z-order
- integrated HDR image compositing into the layered HDR render loop alongside native HDR video layers and SDR DOM overlays
- forced screenshot mode for HDR layered compositing where required to keep DOM/HDR layer composition deterministic
- skipped readiness waiting for natively extracted HDR videos in the engine path where it was unnecessary and could block layered HDR flows
### HDR metadata robustness
- added a fallback in `extractVideoMetadata()` to read PNG `cICP` metadata directly when `ffprobe` omits color-space fields for PNGs
- this specifically fixes CI/Docker detection for the `hdr-image-only` fixture, where the render was falling back to SDR because the PNG was not being recognized as BT.2020 PQ
### Regression coverage and fixture cleanup
- added `hdr-image-only`, a regression fixture that validates HDR still-image rendering end to end
- added `hdr-pq`, a focused HDR PQ regression fixture for the video path
- updated regression CI to run an `hdr` shard with `--sequential hdr-pq hdr-image-only`
- removed the older larger `hdr-regression/*` fixture set in favor of the smaller targeted regressions used by CI
- added the necessary fixture generation/readme material and checked-in golden outputs for the new HDR tests
## Why
The original PR description only covered the CLI flag forwarding and docs work. Since then, the branch also picked up the missing runtime support needed for HDR still images and the regression coverage to keep that path from breaking.
The practical issue this closes is:
- local host runs could pass while CI failed `hdr-image-only`
- the failure was a full-frame visual mismatch caused by SDR fallback, not unstable rendering
- root cause was PNG HDR metadata not being surfaced by `ffprobe` in the CI Docker environment
- parsing the PNG `cICP` chunk directly makes HDR detection deterministic across environments
## Test plan
### Local targeted checks
```bash
bunx oxlint packages/engine/src/utils/ffprobe.ts packages/engine/src/utils/ffprobe.test.ts
bunx oxfmt packages/engine/src/utils/ffprobe.ts packages/engine/src/utils/ffprobe.test.ts
bun --cwd packages/engine test src/utils/ffprobe.test.ts src/utils/hdr.test.ts
```
### Producer regression runs on host
```bash
bun run --cwd packages/core build:hyperframes-runtime:modular
bun --cwd packages/producer test -- --sequential --exclude-tags slow,render-compat,hdr
bun --cwd packages/producer test -- --sequential hdr-pq hdr-image-only
```
Observed result:
- `fast` shard: 7 passed, 0 failed
- `hdr` shard: 2 passed, 0 failed
### CI-equivalent Docker verification
```bash
docker build -f Dockerfile.test -t hyperframes-producer:test .
docker run --rm \
--security-opt seccomp=unconfined \
--shm-size=4g \
-v "$PWD/packages/producer/tests:/app/packages/producer/tests" \
hyperframes-producer:test \
--sequential hdr-pq hdr-image-only
```
Observed result:
- `hdr-image-only`: passed
- `hdr-pq`: passed
- shard summary: 2 passed, 0 failed
### Specific regression fixed
Before the PNG `cICP` fallback, the Docker/CI run failed `hdr-image-only` with:
- missing `"[Render] HDR source detected — output: PQ ..."` log line
- full-frame visual mismatch across all 100 checkpoints
- PSNR ~17 on every frame, indicating a consistent SDR-vs-HDR pipeline mismatch
After the fallback, the same Docker path recognizes the PNG as HDR and the shard passes.
* feat(cli): add --lang and auto-infer phonemizer locale from voice prefix
`hyperframes tts` was calling Kokoro's `model.create(text, voice=, speed=)`
with no language argument, so Kokoro's default phonemizer (en-us) was
applied regardless of the voice selected. Picking `ef_dora` or `jf_alpha`
and feeding it Spanish or Japanese text produced English-phonemized
output.
Closes#349.
- `manager.ts`: add `SUPPORTED_LANGS`, `inferLangFromVoiceId`, and
`isSupportedLang`. Attach a `defaultLang` field to every bundled voice
and expand the bundled list with `ef_dora`, `ff_siwis`, `jf_alpha`,
`zf_xiaobei` so `--list` surfaces multilingual options.
- `synthesize.ts`: accept optional `lang: SupportedLang` in
`SynthesizeOptions`, forward it to the Python worker as `argv[7]`.
The worker introspects `Kokoro.create`'s signature and only passes
`lang=` when the installed kokoro-onnx version supports it. Returned
metadata now includes `lang` and `langApplied` so callers can detect
silent no-ops. Bump the cached script filename to `synth-v2.py` so
existing installs pick up the new script automatically.
- `commands/tts.ts`: add `--lang, -l` with validation against
`SUPPORTED_LANGS`. Resolution order is explicit `--lang` > inferred
from voice prefix > `en-us`. When explicit lang disagrees with the
voice-implied lang (legitimate for stylized accents), emit a
dim-level hint; suppress under `--json`. When kokoro-onnx silently
ignores the kwarg, log that too. Update `--list` with a new
"Lang code" column and add multilingual examples.
- Tests: new `manager.test.ts` covering every supported prefix, the
unknown-prefix fallback, case-insensitivity, `isSupportedLang`
validation, and a regression guard that every bundled voice has a
valid `defaultLang` matching its ID.
- Docs: `docs/packages/cli.mdx` and `skills/hyperframes/references/tts.md`
updated with the flag, examples, the espeak-ng dependency note for
non-English phonemization, and the voice-prefix → lang table.
Backward compatibility:
- English voices (a*/b* prefixes) continue to phonemize as en-us / en-gb
— no change.
- Non-English voices now phonemize correctly by default (bug fix, not a
regression).
- Older kokoro-onnx versions that don't know the `lang` kwarg keep
working via signature introspection; the CLI logs a dim note if
`--lang` was requested but ignored.
Verification:
- `bun --cwd packages/cli test` — 128 tests pass (incl. 17 new).
- `bunx oxlint` and `bunx oxfmt --check` clean on changed files.
- `bun run build` succeeds.
- `npx tsx packages/cli/src/cli.ts tts --help` / `--list` render cleanly;
invalid `--lang` produces a clean error with the valid-codes list.
* refactor(cli): simplify tts --lang implementation
Post-review cleanup on #351. Net -21 lines.
- Drop `defaultLang` field + `makeVoice()` helper from VoiceInfo —
compute via `inferLangFromVoiceId(v.id)` at read time in listVoices.
The only reader was the --list table; caching the derived value on
every voice added a self-consistency invariant we had to test.
- Drop redundant `lang` field from SynthesizeResult — caller already
knows the requested lang since it passed it in; only `langApplied`
carries information the caller can't derive.
- Use `errorBox` for --lang validation to match the house style in
render.ts (other validation errors already use errorBox).
- Reuse existing `langList` module constant in the validation error
instead of re-joining SUPPORTED_LANGS.
- Inline `DEFAULT_LANG` — used once in inferLangFromVoiceId.
- Trim WHAT-restating comments and the duplicate prefix-enumeration
JSDoc on inferLangFromVoiceId (VOICE_PREFIX_LANG already carries
per-row comments).
- Clean up orphaned `synth*.py` files in ~/.cache/hyperframes/tts
when writing the current versioned script, so repeated upgrades
don't leak files.
- Drop the `EN-US` case-sensitive-rejection test assertion — the CLI
lowercases input before validation, so accepting mixed case is a
feature, not a bug.
Tests: 16/16 in `manager.test.ts`, 127/127 full CLI suite pass.
Lint + format + typecheck clean.
Incorporates four review points on #348:
1. Fix typecheck error — cast the dynamic `@hyperframes/engine` import to a
typed shape and drop the `as typeof x` cast on a `null`-unioned variable
that TS rejected. CI `Typecheck` was failing on main because the cast
conflicted with the declared union.
2. Clear stale injected <img> overlays — always call
`syncVideoFrameVisibility(page, activeIds)` on every seek (including
`active.length === 0`), so injected frames from a previous timestamp
don't leak into later snapshots. The runtime's visibility toggles act
on the native <video> but not on its injected sibling, which Copilot
correctly flagged as a leakage source.
3. URL-decode the served video path before resolving to a filesystem path.
Files whose names contain spaces or other URL-encoded characters were
skipped because `new URL().pathname` preserves `%20` while the file
server decodes inbound requests and the file on disk lives at the
decoded name.
4. Mirror `packages/core/src/runtime/media.ts` media math so clips with a
non-1 `defaultPlaybackRate` get the correct active window and relTime.
Specifically: clamp `defaultPlaybackRate` to [0.1, 5], apply
`(t - start) * rate + mediaStart`, and adjust the duration-fallback
branch by `/ rate` when only source duration is known.
5. Kill FFmpeg on a 30s timeout so a pathological clip cannot wedge
snapshot indefinitely. Matches the default in
`@hyperframes/engine`'s `runFfmpeg`.
Re-verified against the same 4-timestamp A/B on launch-video-2:
MD5s match the ffmpeg-from-render ground truth
12.5s → ef9684e36fea53a0db7adf7cfcaacad3 (Stripe)
16.0s → 487494ca16344d55d7181408dc439a56 (Framer)
20.5s → 8835c34ad2a45755a1c98a7e079427a1 (HeyGen 3D)
32.5s → 34dc9450f2bd661c12039d7aa82a30b0 (GitHub finale)
No-video projects (basecamp-tour, linear-brand, commissioned/github)
still produce identical output to the pre-fix path. Latency unchanged.
Made-with: Cursor
The snapshot command previously just called `tl.seek(t)` + `page.screenshot`
and trusted Chrome to advance `<video>`-element decoders. Chrome headless
silently ignores `video.currentTime = X` writes — the setter is accepted
but the decoder never moves. Result: every snapshot of a composition that
uses body-level `<video data-start>` elements renders the same frame
regardless of the requested timestamp (the z-topmost video's first-frame
paints through, because all clips share `position: absolute; inset: 0`
and visibility:hidden doesn't always prevent the GPU surface from
contributing to the composite).
The render pipeline has already solved this: for each body-level video it
extracts the needed frame via FFmpeg and overlays it as an <img> sibling
via `injectVideoFramesBatch` (packages/engine/src/services/screenshot
Service.ts). This commit ports that same primitive into `snapshot`:
1. Added `extractVideoFrameToBuffer(videoPath, t)` — one FFmpeg spawn per
active video, `-ss` keyframe seek (~100-200 ms), writes a temp PNG.
2. After the existing seek + settle, enumerate `<video data-start>`
elements that are active at the target time, resolve each one's
`currentSrc` URL back to a filesystem path under `projectDir`, extract
the frame, and call `injectVideoFramesBatch`.
3. Then screenshot — as before.
Non-breaking: when no body-level `<video data-start>` elements exist (every
other project in the repo — basecamp, linear, stripe, github component), the
new block short-circuits on `active.length === 0` and behaves identically
to the pre-fix path. Verified against three no-video projects: bit-identical
snapshot output, no latency regression.
Measured on macOS M2 (4 frames, cold):
launch-video-2 (11 timed videos): 6.48s → 6.16s (-5%)
basecamp-tour (no timed videos): 5.67s → 4.87s (-14%)
Proof: Pre-fix MD5 at t=12.5, 16.0, 20.5, 32.5 — all 4 identical (wrong frame)
Post-fix MD5 at same timestamps — all 4 distinct, match ffmpeg-from-render

* feat(hdr): shader transitions, --hdr flag, and SDR rendering fixes
- 15 GLSL→TypeScript shader transitions on rgb48le buffers
- Dual-scene compositing with scene detection via window.__hf.transitions
- --hdr flag gates ffprobe probing (zero overhead on SDR compositions)
- Cross-transfer conversion (PQ↔HLG) via OOTF-corrected composite LUT
- Buffer.from() copy in writeFrame() fixes streaming encoder race condition
- SDR rendering fixes (three stacked bugs)
- Object.assign fix for window.__hf preservation
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: tighten shader smoke thresholds + assert .scene contract
- Tighten the all-transitions smoke test thresholds: at progress=0 we now
require the center pixel R-channel > 35000 (was > 25000) and at
progress=1 < 15000 (was < 25000). The old midpoint of 25000 sat exactly
halfway between the test from-pixel (40000) and to-pixel (10000), so a
half-blended transition would silently pass.
- Add a runtime assertion in HyperShader.init() that every scene id
resolves to a DOM element with the .scene class. Without this, missing
ids silently no-op when textures + querySelectorAll(.scene) run later.
Addresses deferred review feedback from PR #268.
* fix(hdr): restore VIRTUAL_TIME_SHIM and applyRenderModeHints in renderOrchestrator
Commit c6b4619c ("feat(hdr): shader transitions, --hdr flag, and SDR
rendering fixes") accidentally removed two pieces of the deterministic
rendering pipeline:
1. The `VIRTUAL_TIME_SHIM` injected via `createFileServer.preHeadScripts`,
which freezes `Date.now()` and `requestAnimationFrame` so RAF-driven
animations advance only when `window.__hf.seek(t)` is called.
2. The `applyRenderModeHints` function and its post-`compileForRender`
call site, which auto-forces screenshot capture mode for compositions
the compiler flagged as needing it (RAF, iframes, etc.).
Without (1), RAF animations advanced by wall-clock between the main-loop
seek and the per-DOM-layer seek inside `compositeToBuffer`, producing the
sawtooth PSNR pattern on `raf-ball-render-compat` (high PSNR at integer
seconds, ~24 dB everywhere else). Without (2), `iframe-render-compat`
lost its automatic fallback to screenshot mode and the child-document
motion stopped being captured.
Both helpers are still produced by `htmlCompiler` and exercised by
`renderOrchestrator.test.ts` — the orchestrator just stopped calling
them. Restored:
- Re-import `VIRTUAL_TIME_SHIM` from `./fileServer.js`
- Pass `preHeadScripts: [VIRTUAL_TIME_SHIM]` to both `createFileServer`
call sites (probe + main render)
- Re-add `applyRenderModeHints` (matching the test expectations) and
call it immediately after `compileForRender`
- Persist `renderModeHints` in `summary.json` and the
"Compiled composition metadata" log line
Fixes the `iframe-render-compat` and `raf-ball-render-compat` regression
failures on `feat/hdr-layered-compositing`.

* test(engine): expand sampleRgb48le coverage + audit Uint16Array alignment
Adds:
- 8 new sampleRgb48le bilinear-interpolation tests covering boundary
pixels, sub-pixel weights, edge clamping, and odd-byte-offset Buffers.
- uint16-alignment-audit.test.ts documenting the alignment requirement
for Uint16Array views over Buffer slices vs. readUInt16LE/writeUInt16LE.
Background: ~105 hot-loop sites in shader transitions still use
readUInt16LE/writeUInt16LE. Switching to Uint16Array views would cut
overhead but requires guaranteed even byteOffsets — these tests document
the contract before any future refactor lands.
* fix(engine,producer): mask DOM layers during HDR layered compositing
The HDR layered compositor blits z-ordered layers over a shared canvas. DOM
layers used a full-page screenshot from `captureAlphaPng`, which captures
*every* painted pixel on the page — root background, sibling-scene content,
overlay UI elements that aren't part of the current layer. Those opaque
pixels were then blitted over the canvas, overwriting any HDR content
composited beneath in earlier layers.
The previous workaround toggled `display:none` on hide ids via
`hideVideoElements`/`showVideoElements`. That correctly hid native videos
but did nothing about the root composition's background or about overlay
elements that the layer grouping considered part of a different layer.
This commit replaces the workaround with a precise CSS mask installed
before each DOM screenshot:
1. `applyDomLayerMask` injects a stylesheet that hides every `body *` and
re-shows the layer's elements (and their descendants and their injected
`__render_frame_*` siblings) with `visibility: visible !important`. CSS
visibility is *not* multiplicative through descendants — a child with
`visibility: visible` overrides an ancestor's `visibility: hidden`, so
deeply nested layer content still paints even though every intermediate
ancestor is hidden by the mass-hide rule.
2. Non-layer data-start ids are inline-hidden with
`visibility: hidden !important`. Inline `!important` beats stylesheet
`!important`, so this overrides the show rule for elements that fall
under a show selector but should NOT paint — most importantly HDR
videos and other-layer SDR videos that live as descendants of `#root`.
3. `removeDomLayerMask` tears the stylesheet down and clears the inline
`visibility`/`opacity` properties so subsequent video frame injection
gets a clean slate.
Crucially the mask only sets `visibility`, never `opacity`. CSS opacity
*is* multiplicative — `opacity: 0` on `#root` would zero out every
descendant including layer videos, even with `visibility: visible`. We
also extend `initTransparentBackground` to force the composition root
(`[data-composition-id]`) transparent in addition to `html`/`body`,
because compositions almost always set `#root { background: ... }` and
that background paints across the whole viewport otherwise.
Both compositing paths use the new helpers:
- The per-layer DOM branch (`compositeToBuffer`) for normal frames.
- The transition path (single DOM screenshot per scene) so transition
frames also get a clean per-scene capture.
Adds extensive `KEEP_TEMP=1`-gated diagnostics to `compositeToBuffer`:
per-layer pixel-add accounting, dumps of every captured DOM PNG, and a
periodic raw `rgb48le` snapshot of the composite buffer. These were
essential to diagnosing the root-overwrite bug and stay zero-cost in
normal renders. Also stops the workDir / per-video frame-dir cleanup
when `KEEP_TEMP=1` so the dumps survive past frame N.

* fix(engine): preserve GSAP-applied opacity across DOM-layer captures
SDR clips inside an HDR composition were rendering at full opacity even
when the user had animated their wrapper opacity (e.g. fade-in or
yoyo). Two bugs in the per-layer screenshot path conspired to drop the
GSAP-applied opacity on the floor:
1. removeDomLayerMask was unconditionally calling
`el.style.removeProperty("opacity")` on every wrapper after each
layer capture. applyDomLayerMask only ever sets `visibility`, so the
only inline opacity present is the value GSAP wrote. Stripping it
between layer captures means that on the next capture (at the same
timestamp), GSAP's `totalTime(t, false)` no-ops because the timeline
is already at that time — the opacity is never restored, and the
wrapper renders fully opaque.
2. injectVideoFramesBatch was reading the source <video>'s computed
opacity via `parseFloat(computedStyle.opacity) || 1` and copying it
onto the injected <img>. Because syncVideoFrameVisibility forces the
<video> to `opacity: 0 !important` to hide it during capture, the
computed value is always 0, which `|| 1` then silently flips to
full opacity. The <img> is a sibling of the <video> inside the same
wrapper, so it should inherit opacity from the wrapper directly
instead of having a value hard-set on it.
Fix both: drop the opacity removal in removeDomLayerMask, skip opacity
when copying visual properties from <video> to <img>, and explicitly
clear any stale inline opacity on the <img> so it inherits from the
wrapper that GSAP is animating.
Made-with: Cursor
* fix(producer): correct hdrLayerStartTimes typo to hdrVideoStartTimes
The diagnostic logging block in executeRenderJob's HDR layer composite
path referenced an undeclared `hdrLayerStartTimes` map. The correct
variable, declared and populated earlier in the same function, is
`hdrVideoStartTimes`. The typo was introduced alongside the DOM-layer
masking work and broke the producer build/typecheck on CI.
Made-with: Cursor
* fix(engine): restore video opacity copy to injected frame img
Commit 188ebcca removed the opacity copy from `injectVideoFramesBatch` on
the assumption that the <img> sibling would inherit GSAP's opacity from
a shared wrapper. That breaks any composition where GSAP animates opacity
directly on the <video> element itself: the <img> has no animated
ancestor and renders at full opacity throughout any fade, even when the
user's intent is partial or zero opacity.
The CI `style-7-prod` and `style-8-prod` regressions caught this:
the <video id="aroll"> fade-in from 3.0-3.5s rendered as a hard cut
because the <img> inherited opacity 1 regardless of GSAP's tween.
Restore the old explicit copy from `computedStyle.opacity` to the
<img>'s inline opacity, with the `|| 1` fallback intentionally
preserved. The fallback is load-bearing: GSAP's seek does not re-apply
tweens that have already completed, so post-fade frames read opacity 0
from the stale `opacity: 0 !important` we apply to hide the native
<video>. The `|| 1` recovers the tween's end-state opacity 1 for
those frames, matching the final on-screen intent and the existing
baseline renders.
Handles both DOM shapes:
- GSAP on wrapper: video's own computed opacity is 1, img set to 1,
wrapper's opacity applies via stacking as before.
- GSAP on <video>: video's computed opacity is the tween value, copied
to img directly since they are siblings.
Fixes:
- style-7-prod: 0 failed frames (was 2 @ t=3.17, 3.33)
- style-8-prod: 0 failed frames (was 2 @ t=3.05, 3.24)

* refactor(engine): restructure frame reorder buffer with Map-keyed storage
Rewrites createFrameReorderBuffer to use a Map<number, Array<() => void>>
keyed by frame index instead of a flat Array<{frame, resolve}> scanned on
every advance. O(1) lookups in enqueue/flush, fast-paths for the matching-
cursor and overshoot cases, and a small fix: waitForAllDone now coexists
with the writer still waiting on the final frame instead of colliding on
the same waiter slot.
Also adds 5 unit tests (there were none before) covering the fast-path,
out-of-order gating, multi-waiter-per-frame semantics, waitForAllDone
normal path, and the overshoot case.
Comment tweaks on buildChromeArgs — the flag profile is the standard
headless-for-capture set (Puppeteer / Playwright / Chrome headless-shell
all converge on similar flags); rephrased for clarity.
* refactor(cli): simplify port availability probe with async/await
Rewrites isPortAvailableOnHost from a single new-Promise callback into an
async/await form with an intermediate `bindError: ErrnoException | null`
variable. Makes the bind-then-release flow explicit as two sequential
awaits, and broadens the non-EADDRINUSE errno commentary (EADDRNOTAVAIL
for disabled IPv6, EACCES for privileged ports, EAFNOSUPPORT for missing
address families — all treated as "this host doesn't apply", not "port
occupied").
No behavior change to existing callers; all four portUtils tests still
pass.
* docs: add CREDITS.md and surface website-to-hyperframes skill
- New CREDITS.md acknowledging prior art in the browser-based video
rendering space (Remotion) and the ecosystem HyperFrames builds on
(Puppeteer, FFmpeg, GSAP, Hono). Standard OSS practice.
- Adds the `website-to-hyperframes` skill to the skills tables in
README.md, docs/guides/prompting.mdx, and the project template at
packages/cli/src/templates/_shared/CLAUDE.md. The skill ships in
skills/ but was missing from every table.
- Adds `/hyperframes-registry` to the prose mention in the repo
CLAUDE.md.
* fix(cli): use 'where' instead of 'which' on Windows for FFmpeg and browser detection

Capture pipeline:
- agentPromptGenerator now writes AGENTS.md + CLAUDE.md (drop legacy
.cursorrules), matching the dual-file convention already used by the
_shared templates in hyperframes init. AGENTS.md is picked up natively by
Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Aider, and Jules; CLAUDE.md covers
Claude Code. Both files share the same content — a capture data inventory
that points agents to the website-to-hyperframes skill.
website-to-hyperframes skill refinements (derived from 8-site regression test):
- Drop slash-command phrasing throughout SKILL.md and step-6-build.md so the
skill works identically across Claude Code (slash), Cursor (auto-discover
by description), and other agents.
- Remove stale HANDOFF.md references from SKILL.md step-7 summary and
reference table — matches the intent of the prior step-7 cleanup.
- step-5-vo: specify narration.txt filename convention (pronunciation-
substituted spoken text; distinct from SCRIPT.md the creative doc).
- step-6 self-review adds three rules derived from actual lint warnings
observed across the 8 regression runs:
- Every <template> root needs data-start + data-duration (catches
root_composition_missing_data_start/duration, seen in 4/8 runs).
- Caption exits need a hard tl.set kill after tl.to(opacity:0), or
per-word karaoke tweens can leave captions stuck on screen
(caption_exit_missing_hard_kill).
- No duplicate media nodes with identical src + start + duration, or
the compiler discovers them twice (duplicate_media_discovery_risk).
Housekeeping:
- .gitignore: add cursor-tests/, basecamp-video/, projects/, videos/ —
local regression-test scratch dirs that should never be committed.
- Remove two broken symlinks from .claude/skills/ that pointed to paths
which never existed in the repo (.claude/skills/ is already gitignored).
Made-with: Cursor
Follows up on jrusso1020's review in #320.
Exit code no longer gated on check health
---------------------------------------
`doctor --json` previously set exitCode=1 when any check failed. Two
problems:
- `checkVersion` returns ok:false whenever a newer npm version is
available, so any pipeline using `hyperframes doctor --json || fail`
would start failing the next time a new CLI version was published.
- Asymmetric with bare `doctor` which always exits 0.
Exit code now strictly reflects whether the command executed, not
whether the environment is healthy. Consumers who want to gate do:
hyperframes doctor --json | jq -e '.ok' > /dev/null || handle_failure
Documented that pattern in docs/packages/cli.mdx.
Schema locked with a snapshot test
----------------------------------
Extracted `buildDoctorReport()` as a pure function and added
`doctor.test.ts` covering:
- top-level key set (any accidental rename/addition fails the test)
- shape of each CheckOutcome entry
- ok flag true/false semantics
- check-order preservation
- hint field: omitted when absent, preserved when present
- redact option both on and off
Any future refactor that silently breaks the documented JSON contract
will now fail CI.
$HOME redaction for JSON mode
-----------------------------
JSON output is explicitly designed to be pasted into bug reports and
agent contexts. Added `redactHome()` so the user's home directory is
replaced with the literal `$HOME` in `detail`/`hint` when --json is
set. Human mode is unchanged (shows real paths).
Import grouping
---------------
Moved `node:os` + `_examples` imports up with the rest so `export const
examples` no longer sits between imports.
Capture improvements:
- Font weights via document.fonts API + DOM sampling (variable font detection)
- Section background-image extraction (no more false #FFFFFF on hero photos)
- Detected libraries surfaced in CLAUDE.md brand summary
- Structured visible-text.txt with [tag] prefixes, cookie/nav noise filtered
- tokens.json cleaned: removed images/paragraphs/icons (duplicated elsewhere),
filtered sections to heading-only, trimmed cssVariables to design-relevant
- Removed redundant scroll pass in htmlExtractor (2-5s faster per capture)
- Font cap at 20 families, Placeholder/Fallback fonts filtered
CLAUDE.md rewrite:
- Removed prescriptive tone ("use exact strings" → "rephrase freely")
- Removed fluff sections (How to Create, DESIGN.md warning, Example Prompts,
Source Patterns)
- asset-descriptions.md promoted to first data row
- Removed assets-catalog.json from inventory
Skill fixes:
- Dead shader refs → point to packages/shader-transitions/README.md
- Google Fonts import in techniques.md → local @font-face placeholder
- Added Stripe DESIGN.md as light-brand example
- Removed HANDOFF.md generation from step-7
- Updated step-1 for new font weight + visible-text formats
