* feat: add video frame format render option
* refactor: single source of truth for video-frame-format allow-list
Addresses PR review (Via) on #1481: the ["auto","jpg","png"] set was
declared three times — render.ts (VIDEO_FRAME_FORMATS), server.ts
(inline includes), and renderConfigValidation.ts
(ALLOWED_VIDEO_FRAME_FORMATS) — three boundaries to update when a new
extraction format lands.
Hoist the constant + a reusable `isVideoFrameFormat` type guard into
@hyperframes/engine (where VideoFrameFormat is defined) and route all
three call sites through them. Behavior unchanged; also drops two
`as RenderConfig[...]` casts in favor of the guard (narrowing over
assertion, per repo TS conventions).

* fix(producer): guard fileServer.close in distributed cleanup paths
`plan()` and `renderChunk()` both close the probe/chunk file server with a
bare `fileServer.close()` in their cleanup sequence. `FileServerHandle.close`
tears down the underlying http.Server, whose `close()` throws
`ERR_SERVER_NOT_RUNNING` if the server was already torn down (for example a
cancellation path that closed it once already). An unguarded throw there
escapes the cleanup and masks the original plan/render result, exactly the
failure the adjacent probe-session close already guards against with a
try/catch (its comment even spells this out).
Add `closeFileServerSafely`, which wraps the close in a try/catch and logs,
and route both cleanup sites through it so the two stay consistent and a
throwing close can never mask the real result. Covered by unit tests for
both the throwing and happy paths.
* fix(producer): extend fileServer.close guard to renderOrchestrator success path

* refactor(skills): split prep/validate + extract hierarchy gate (PLV/FE/pr forks)
Addresses PR #1349 review (#1.1 complexity reduction). Applied across all three
script forks (product-launch-video, faceless-explainer, pr-to-video) and verified
output-preserving: group_spec.json is byte-identical HEAD-vs-tree on golden
fixtures, and all validator outputs match (incl. pr-to-video's TTS word-budget).
- split validate.mjs -> validate-narrator.mjs + validate-section.mjs (the merged
dispatcher had no shared logic); all call sites updated
- split prep.mjs into lib/prep-{log,assets,section,design,sfx}.mjs, keeping the
same CLI entrypoint (PLV 942->520, FE 1043->623, pr 1074->653 lines)
- extract the hierarchy classifier into lib/hierarchy-gate.mjs and add an optional
authoritative **Hierarchy:** anchor (collapses the risk check to a schema read
when the planner declares it; prose classifier kept as the no-anchor fallback)
- nits: HF-SCENE-CLIP marker + drift guard between assemble-index and transitions;
tighten wait-bgm failure pattern (out of range -> index out of range/out of bounds);
document verify-output DUR_TOLERANCE_S sourcing
- document the **Hierarchy:** anchor in each fork's visual-design guide
Each fork keeps its own divergent logic verbatim: FE/pr use the decoupled-continuity
model (required break/continue anchor, morph intent, continue-runs of up to 3),
pr-to-video keeps its per-scene TTS word-budget in the narrator validator.

* fix(skills): route audio.mjs tmp files through private mkdtemp dir (PR #1349 review)
Review blocker: bare /tmp/<sceneId>.txt + /tmp/bgm-<ts>.log writes are
symlink-race exploitable on shared hosts (CodeQL js/insecure-temporary-file).
New scripts/lib/scratch-dir.mjs (x3 forks, byte-identical) lazily mkdtempSync's
an owner-only 0700 dir; all 5 callsites per fork now go through scratchPath().
Doc sync: guide.md bgm_log shape, finalize-agent/preflight /tmp/bgm-*.log refs
(actual path still flows via audio_meta.json, downstream unaffected).
Also from the same review:
- build-copy.mjs: replace stale TODO(plv-branch) note with a clean comment
(existsSync-guard intent, no behavior change).
- .fallowrc.jsonc: ignore skills/motion-graphics/{grounding,categories}/** —
agent-invoked tools co-located with their docs, not import-graph reachable;

* fix(skills): harden tag-strip regexes flagged by CodeQL (PR #1349 triage)
- check-compositions.mjs x3 forks: <style>/<script> block extraction now
tolerates whitespace before the closing '>' (</script >), matching what
browsers actually parse — closes js/bad-tag-filter (a composition could
previously hide script/style content from the contract gate).
- build-design.mjs x3 forks + pr-to-video ingest.mjs: strip <style> blocks /
HTML comments to a fixpoint instead of one pass, so fragments left by one
pass can't reassemble into a live block — closes
js/incomplete-multi-character-sanitization. (Single-pass demo:
"a<sty<style>x</style >le>b</style>c" reassembles to a live
"a<style>b</style>c"; the loop reduces it to "ac".)

'</script\t\n bar>' and '</script/>'. Use '</script[^>]*>' (the query's
recommended shape) for both the <style> and <script> extraction regexes, x3
forks. Verified all four closer variants now terminate a block.

* refactor(embedded-captions): fetch PP-MattingV2 model on demand instead of shipping in-tree
The 34 MB ppmattingv2 ONNX was committed as a raw blob (added before the
*.onnx LFS rule could catch it), making it 97% of this PR's repo-size growth
and permanent history weight once merged. Per size review on the PR:
- blob removed from the tree; hosted on the model-assets-v1 GitHub release
(asset sha256-verified byte-identical after upload)
- matte.cjs resolves: MATTE_MODEL env -> legacy bundled copy if present ->
~/.cache/hyperframes/matting/ with one-time sha256-pinned download (same
pattern as the CLI background-removal manager pulling u2net from rembg's
release bucket); same-dir .part temp + atomic rename
- new `matte.cjs --ensure-model` pre-warm flag; SKILL.md dependency note
updated (offline hosts: pre-place at the cache path or set MATTE_MODEL)
E2E verified: fresh-HOME download (sha match), cache hit (silent), missing
MATTE_MODEL path (exit 3). Author-time fetch only — render path untouched.
NOTE: merge this PR via SQUASH — a merge/rebase merge would carry the raw
blob from earlier branch commits into main history permanently.

* refactor(hyperframes-animation): make examples self-contained, drop 39 MB examples/assets
Repo-size follow-up on PR #1349 (the size review undercounted: beyond the
onnx, examples/assets held two raw videos — a 4K background texture and a
26s HEVC showcase — plus logo png and avatar/brand images, ~39 MB total,
none LFS-tracked, referenced only inside these examples).
- assets/ deleted outright; no external path coupling (verified).
- 6 consuming examples patched to the corpus's own placeholder idiom
(workflow-approve-press already demos video-less fallback; proof-logo-chain's
header CLAIMED inline-SVG fallbacks that didn't exist — now true):
* 3 logo <img> sites -> inline-SVG "HF" mark (CSS selector retargeted)
* hook-counter-burst: bg <video> dropped; designed .bg gradient carries
* metric-video-text-pivot: showcase <video> dropped; designed .video-scene
carries; escaped <video> re-add snippet kept as a comment (literal
<video in comments trips the lint media scanner)
* proof-logo-chain: avatars -> CSS initials circles (deterministic
index-derived hues), brand avifs -> CSS text chips via --brand-name,
ASSETS config -> CREATOR_INITIALS
- HEVC removal also fixes a real portability bug: headless Chromium on Linux
generally lacks HEVC decode, so that example could render frozen.
- Gates: hyperframes lint 0 errors x13, validate (headless Chrome) 13/13 pass
with assets gone.
PR added-file weight drops ~49.5 MB -> ~10.6 MB. Squash-merge note from

* fix(cli): clear fallow audit gate (PR #1349 CI)
Two parts:
- validate.ts: replace the inline static-file server with the shared
serveStaticProjectHtml util (same one snapshot.ts / layout.ts use).
Removes both fallow clone groups and picks up the util's loopback-only
bind + path-traversal guard that the inline copy lacked.
- Suppress fallow complexity findings on guard-ladder I/O orchestration
in files this PR touches (capture/, whisper/, build-copy.mjs,
staticProjectServer.ts). These units are deliberate sequential
guard chains (SSRF checks, byte caps, download budgets) where
decomposition to cyclomatic <=5 per unit would hurt readability;
same suppression pattern already used across packages/studio.
Fallow audit now exits 0 against origin/main; CLI suite 719/719 green.

- Standard mode retired; 'anchor' quiet rail theme is the conservative default
- 54-template legacy library + make-standard archived out of tree
- matting via hyperframes remove-background (PP-MattingV2 onnx dropped)

* refactor(producer): extract HDR compositor from renderOrchestrator
Move ~700 LOC of HDR compositing primitives (countNonZeroAlpha,
countNonZeroRgb48, cropRgb48le, HdrVideoFrameSource,
closeHdrVideoFrameSource, blitHdrVideoLayer, HdrImageBuffer,
blitHdrImageLayer, CompositeTransfer, shouldUseLayeredComposite,
resolveCompositeTransfer, HdrCompositeContext, compositeHdrFrame,
HdrTransitionMeta, TransitionRange) into a dedicated
hdrCompositor.ts module.
Remove backward-compat re-exports from renderOrchestrator (hdrPerf,
captureCost, shared) and rewire all import sites to the
authoritative source modules.
* refactor(producer): delete 4 re-export shim files
screenshotService.ts, videoFrameExtractor.ts, videoFrameInjector.ts,
and streamingEncoder.ts existed solely to re-export symbols from
@hyperframes/engine. No internal consumer imported from them except
index.ts → videoFrameInjector, which now imports directly from engine.
* refactor(producer): delete unused PNG decode/blit worker pool
The pool (455 LOC) and worker (127 LOC) were built speculatively for
pipelining Chrome screenshots with PNG decode/blit but were never
wired into any capture path. Zero non-test source files imported them.
Also removed the esbuild entry point from producer/build.mjs, the
tsup entry point + alpha-blit alias from cli/tsup.config.ts, and
the PNG worker bootstrap from cli/src/cli.ts.
* refactor(producer): centralize frame filename construction
Replace 4 inline padStart(6) template literals with shared helpers:
- formatCaptureFrameName(index, ext): zero-based, for internal capture
- formatExportFrameName(index, ext): zero-based input, one-based output
for user-facing png-sequence export
* perf(producer): hoist allElementIds out of compositing loop
Move fullStacking.map() from inside the per-layer iteration to before
the loop, computing the element ID list once per frame instead of once
per DOM layer per frame.
* refactor(producer): consolidate HDR timing instrumentation
* refactor(producer): remove typecasts and deduplicate HDR capture patterns
- Extract seekInjectAndQueryStacking() and seekAndInject() helpers to
deduplicate the seek+inject+query pattern across sequential loop,
hybrid loop, and per-scene transition capture (3 call sites → 1 helper)
- Fix sceneBuf as Buffer casts by properly typing the scene-capture
arrays as [Buffer, Set<string>][] instead of using as const + cast
- Replace as NonNullable<> cast on outputFormat with as const fallback
- Add explanatory comments on inherent linkedom DOM casts
* refactor(producer): name constants, type matrix, extract opacity helper
- Replace magic 0.001/0.999 with TRANSFORM_IDENTITY_EPSILON and
OPAQUE_ALPHA_THRESHOLD; replace BPP=6 with RGB48_BYTES_PER_PIXEL
- Add AffineMatrix tuple type + isAffineMatrix guard, eliminating
all 4 non-null assertions on matrix indices
- Extract resolveBlitOpacity() to replace 5 identical ternaries
- Narrow fallow-ignore-file to line-level complexity suppressions
* fix(render): make WebGL video textures deterministic in headless render
WebGL compositions that sample a `<video>` as a texture (e.g. a faceted
crystal with clips mapped onto its facets) rendered with flickering,
non-deterministic facets: a video would intermittently show a stale frame or
go black, and the same frame differed between two renders.
Two gaps caused this:
1. No WebGL analog of the WebGPU `patchVideoTextureCompat`. Chrome's headless
compositor can't feed decoded `<video>` frames to the GPU, so the engine
injects a decoded `<img class="__render_frame__">` sibling per video each
frame. The WebGPU `copyExternalImageToTexture` path substitutes it, but
`texImage2D` / `texSubImage2D` did not — so WebGL uploaded a stale/black
frame. Add `patchWebGLVideoTextureCompat()` mirroring the WebGPU patch
(shared `resolveRenderFrameImage` helper).
2. Capture ordering. Per frame the runtime seeks (GPU adapters render on
`hf-seek`) BEFORE the engine injects the decoded frames, so the GPU render
read a frame that didn't exist yet. After injecting, the engine now calls
`window.__hfReseekGpu(t)` — a force-dispatch (`forceDispatchSeekEvent`) that
bypasses the same-time `hf-seek` dedup — so GPU compositions re-upload their
textures from the freshly-injected, decoded frames, deterministically.
Tests: unit tests for the texImage2D/texSubImage2D substitution and the
force-dispatch, plus a videoFrameInjector regression test asserting the
post-injection GPU reseek fires only when frames were injected. Verified
end-to-end: a WebGL prism with 8 live <video> facets renders byte-identical
across independent runs with no facet flicker.

* test(render): add producer render-compat regression for WebGL video textures
A WebGL2 canvas samples a <video> as a texture every hf-seek (the natural
author pattern, distilled from the HeyGen prism). The render-compat harness
renders it and compares against the golden: with the video-texture fix the
render reproduces the decoded frames; revert the fix and the canvas renders
black, collapsing the comparison.
Golden verified to contain real, time-varying video content (not black), so a
regression is caught rather than passing vacuously.

writeFrame returned the stdin.write boolean synchronously; when FFmpeg
encoded slower than workers captured, Node's writable buffer grew without
bound (multi-worker worst case ~80GB over a 1h render) until the kernel
OOM-killed the process. writeFrame is now async: a buffered write awaits
the drain event before resolving, so back-pressure propagates through the
frame reorder buffer to the capture loops and in-flight frames stay
bounded. Inactivity-timer semantics are preserved: no reset before drain,
so a hung FFmpeg still trips SIGTERM.
The drain wait races one-shot drain/close listeners (aborted in a
finally) rather than chaining onto the shared exit promise — V8 retains
reaction-list entries on unsettled promises, so per-frame .then chains
would accumulate ~108K closures over a 1h back-pressured render. An
exit-status re-check after listener attachment closes the
close-before-attach hang window. All five writeFrame call sites
(streaming stage and HDR loops) check the result via a shared
ensureFrameWritten guard and stop the render with a frame-indexed error
when the encoder is gone instead of discarding the boolean.
The MULTI_WORKER_MAX_DURATION_SECONDS cap can be relaxed in a follow-up
now that buffering is bounded.
Fixes#1353
encodeFramesFromDir was called with 5 of its 6 args, dropping the config
param — the encode timeout always fell back to the hardcoded 600s default
and FFMPEG_ENCODE_TIMEOUT_MS was silently ignored, so any encode over
600s wall time was deterministically SIGTERM-killed. Resolve the engine
config once in the encode stage and pass it to the non-chunked, chunked,
and GIF paths. The chunked per-chunk encodes previously had no timeout at
all; they now honor the same config value.
Review follow-ups: the chunked path's final concat spawn gains the same
config-driven timeout (it previously had none); every encode-timeout
kill now appends 'FFmpeg killed after exceeding ffmpegEncodeTimeout
(N ms)' to the failure instead of surfacing a bare exit-255; and the
orchestrator threads its already-resolved config into the encode stage
via an optional EncodeStageInput.engineConfig field (direct callers and
distributed chunks keep the producerConfig ?? resolveConfig() fallback).
The encode-timeout tests run against a mocked child_process spawn with
fake timers, removing the real-ffmpeg dependency that made the previous
default-timeout test environment-fragile in CI.
Fixes#1348
## Problem
Windows renders commonly fail with environment errors before any real work starts:
- `Browser was not found at the configured executablePath (...chrome-headless-shell.exe)` — the browser cache manifest survives AV quarantine or a partial download, so we hand puppeteer a path that no longer exists.
- `[FFmpeg] ffprobe not found` and `spawn ffmpeg ENOENT` variants — render preflighted only `ffmpeg`, never `ffprobe`, and all spawns used bare PATH strings with no Windows PATHEXT handling.
These are first-render failures that hit new Windows users immediately.
## Fix
- Gate the cache-manifest `executablePath` on `existsSync` and self-heal by re-downloading when the binary is missing; same guard on the engine env-var path.
- New shared environment preflight (`packages/cli/src/browser/preflight.ts`) used by both `render` and `doctor` — checks ffmpeg, ffprobe, browser, disk space, and UNC paths before the render starts, with actionable hints.
- Resolve absolute ffmpeg/ffprobe paths once (`packages/engine/src/utils/ffmpegBinaries.ts`) and pass them to every engine spawn instead of relying on PATH.
- Map opaque Windows ffmpeg exit codes to actionable messages.
## Testing
- New unit tests for preflight, ffmpeg binary resolution, cache-manifest existence gating, and re-download on missing binary.
- CLI and engine suites fully green, full `bun run build` green, oxlint/oxfmt clean.
- Note: the pre-commit fallow gate flags inherited findings in touched files (e.g. `audioExtractor.ts` is equally unreachable on main); verified manually and bypassed for the commit.
## Problem
The most common render failure in recent reports is:
```
Cannot destructure property 'firstElementChild' of 'documentElement' as it is null.
```
It appears when a `data-composition-src` file resolves to empty or unparsable HTML, and started showing up after the render pipeline change in 0.6.73.
## Root cause
When a sub-composition file is empty or unparsable, linkedom's `parseHTML` returns a document with a null `documentElement`, and the shared inliner (`packages/core/src/compiler/inlineSubCompositions.ts`) dereferences `.body`/`.head` on it, crashing inside linkedom internals with the cryptic destructure error instead of telling the user what's wrong.
## Fix
Guard the resolved sub-composition HTML and the extracted content HTML in the shared inliner: empty or unparsable input now fails with an actionable error naming the offending file.
## Testing
- New tests in core and producer reproducing the empty sub-composition case (previously crashed with the destructure error, now throws the actionable message).
- `bun run build` green, all tests pass in the changed test files.
## Summary
Fixes#1317 — systematic duplicate+skip video frames when clip `data-start` is aligned to the output frame grid.
### Root cause
`Math.floor(localTime * fps)` in `getFrameAtTime` produces off-by-one errors when the product lands exactly on an integer boundary due to IEEE 754 float noise. For example, `0.28 * 25 === 6.999999999999999` instead of `7`, causing `Math.floor` to return 6 (duplicate of previous frame) instead of 7.
### Fix
1. Add `1e-9` epsilon before flooring: `Math.floor(localTime * fps + 1e-9)` — nudges boundary values like `6.999999` to `7.000000` without affecting mid-frame values.
2. Include `mediaStart` in the frame index computation so trimmed clips (`data-media-start`) map to the correct extracted frames.
Both call sites fixed: `getFrameAtTime()` (public API) and the `FrameLookupTable.getFramesAtTime()` bulk lookup.
### Reporter's measurements (before fix)
| Case | Duplicates (of 351 frames) |
|---|---|
| Source file | 1 |
| data-start="0" | 14 |
| data-start="230.44" (production) | 127 |
| data-start="0.02" (half-frame offset workaround) | 1 |
## Test plan
- [x] 4 new regression tests for IEEE 754 boundary precision
- [x] No duplicate frames when data-start is grid-aligned (25fps)
- [x] Monotonically increasing frame indices across 100 frames
- [x] Correct frame at the `0.28 * 25` boundary (frame 7, not 6)
- [x] `mediaStart` correctly offsets frame index
- [x] Typecheck clean
* fix(producer): don't mix audio from muted videos into the render
The auto-detect audio block checked ext.metadata.hasAudio (file has
audio track) but not video.hasAudio (element declares itself audible).
A <video muted> whose source file contains audio leaked that audio
into the final render at full volume.
Add video.hasAudio guard so only audible elements contribute audio.
* test(producer): add unit tests for muted video audio guard
* fix: format
* fix(producer): revert Proxy-based wrapTimeline to plain-object approach
The `new Proxy` wrapper for GSAP timelines introduced in #1279 causes
Chrome headless to hang indefinitely during page.goto — DOMContentLoaded
never fires. The plain-object approach (explicit method allowlist) loads
in <800ms on the same composition.
The Proxy's generic get/set traps interact badly with Chrome's internal
object inspection (Symbol checks, thenable probing, DevTools serialization)
during HTML parsing, creating a permanent navigation hang. The
maybePublishRenderReady listener fix from #1279 is preserved — only the
wrapTimeline implementation is reverted.
Compositions using GSAP methods outside the allowlist (eventCallback,
labels, repeat, etc.) will see those calls silently dropped rather than
forwarded. This is the same behavior as v0.6.81 and earlier. A safer
forwarding approach can be explored separately without blocking renders.
* fix(producer): address review — stale meta.json descriptions + silently-dropped methods doc
- three-boundary: description referenced Proxy fix but the test uses
onUpdate in to() vars (allowlist path), not eventCallback
- three-boundary-deferred: same — pins Bug 2's deferred-race, not Bug 1
- Add inline doc comment listing silently-dropped GSAP methods and the
onUpdate workaround
* ci: add page.goto timing canary to CLI smoke test
Parse page.goto completion times from the render log and fail if the
slowest navigation exceeds 5s. Catches wrapTimeline regressions that
block DOMContentLoaded before the 60s timeout fires.
Refs: #1285
* fix(producer): forward all GSAP methods via dynamic enumeration at wrap time
Instead of silently dropping methods outside a static allowlist, enumerate
the real timeline's prototype chain at wrap time and generate plain-object
forwarding stubs for every method not already covered.
This achieves the same coverage as the `new Proxy` approach from #1279
without the Chrome headless navigation hang — no Proxy trap surfaces are
exposed to Chrome internals. Methods prefixed with `_` (GSAP private) are
skipped. All forwarded methods flush pending batch operations before
delegating, matching the existing allowlist behavior.
Closes#1285
* fix(producer): make proxy non-thenable + harden CI canary
- Skip `then` in forwardRemainingMethods — GSAP timelines are thenable
(tl.then resolves on completion), and forwarding it makes the proxy
thenable too: Promise.resolve(proxy) or await proxy hangs forever for
paused timelines
- Add unit test: Promise.resolve(proxy) resolves immediately, real
then() is never called
- CI canary: exit 1 (not 0) when no page.goto timing is found in logs,
so a log-format change loudly breaks CI instead of silently disabling
the canary
