Update docs, quickstart, prompting guide, and README to reflect:
- Template-first approach (attach file, not paste URL)
- Claude Design produces drafts, refine in any AI coding agent
- Known limitations (vertical shaders, seeking, no linting)
- Practical example prompts (feature announcement, founder pitch)
- Removed outdated references (invisible bridges, fetch-the-skills-tree)

## Summary
- add a GitHub-hosted `claude-design-hyperframes` skill entry point that tells Claude Design to fetch the upstream HyperFrames skills tree
- add a dedicated Claude Design docs guide and link it from quickstart, prompting, and the README
- fix `@hyperframes/player` CDN docs to show a working ESM include and the explicit global-build fallback
## Verification
- `bunx oxfmt --check README.md docs/docs.json docs/guides/prompting.mdx docs/packages/player.mdx docs/quickstart.mdx packages/player/README.md docs/guides/claude-design.mdx skills/claude-design-hyperframes/SKILL.md`
- `bun run lint:skills`
- `bunx mintlify broken-links`
- browser-engine screenshots captured with Playwright CLI for the changed docs/source surfaces:
- `/tmp/hyperframes-pr-artifacts/claude-design-guide-source.png`
- `/tmp/hyperframes-pr-artifacts/player-docs-source.png`
## Notes
- `mintlify dev`, `mintlify validate`, and `mintlify export` stalled in this environment during preview/bootstrap, so I used the broken-links check plus screenshot-based browser fallback instead of claiming a full rendered-site pass.
- The GitHub entry-point setup reflects current Claude Design behavior discussed in the task: point Claude Design at the repo-hosted skill URL rather than a ZIP upload flow.
* 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
Restructures the Quickstart docs page to lead with AI agent onboarding as the recommended path, matching the README and homepage flow.
## Why
The README (PR #277) now leads with skills-first onboarding, but the Quickstart docs page still led with `npx hyperframes init`. This creates a consistency gap — someone clicking "Quickstart" from the README would see a different onboarding flow than what they just read.
## How
- **Option 1 (recommended)**: Install skills → prompt your agent → iterate by describing changes
- **Option 2**: Manual CLI setup (`hyperframes init` → preview → edit → render) — unchanged content, now under a sub-heading
- Added tip explaining why skills matter (framework-specific patterns)
- Notes that `hyperframes init` installs skills automatically
- "Next steps" cards now include the Catalog (50+ blocks) replacing the Compositions card
## Test plan
- [ ] Preview the Mintlify docs and verify the Quickstart page renders correctly
- [ ] Verify Option 1 flow reads naturally for someone new to HyperFrames
- [ ] Verify Option 2 manual flow is unchanged (same steps, same code examples)
- [ ] Verify all links resolve (Examples, Catalog, GSAP Animation, Rendering)
- [x] Documentation updated (if applicable)
## 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`.

## What
PR 4/17 of the catalog system rollout. **Single clean cut** — the old flag is gone, replaced by `--example`. Alias changes from `-t` to `-e`. Stacks on #254.
- Rename `--template` → `--example` (alias `-e`) on `hyperframes init`
- Accept `--template` as a recognized-but-errored flag so users get a clear rename hint instead of citty silently ignoring the flag and producing a blank project
- Update all user-visible strings that referenced "template" as a user-facing concept in the init flow (picker prompt, step comments, offline-fallback suggestion)
- New `init.test.ts` covering both the success case (`--example` scaffolds) and the error case (`--template` exits 1 with rename hint)
Design doc: [Hyperframes Catalog System](https://www.notion.so/heygen/Hyperframes-Catalog-System-Design-Plan-341449792c69813f899dcd53b4c0383a).
## ⚠️ Breaking change
`--template` is no longer accepted. Example:
```bash
# before
npx hyperframes init my-video --template warm-grain
# after
npx hyperframes init my-video --example warm-grain
```
Users who still type the old flag will see:
```
The --template flag was renamed to --example. Example:
npx hyperframes init my-video --example warm-grain
```
and the command exits with code 1. This is **user guidance, not backwards compat** — the old flag's behavior is fully gone.
## Docs (bundled per the tracker principle)
- `docs/templates.mdx` — every `--template` reference
- `docs/quickstart.mdx` — agent-mode and video-mode examples
- `docs/packages/cli.mdx` — prose, `--help` flag table, `-e` alias
- `packages/cli/src/docs/templates.md` — CLI-embedded help topic
- `README.md` and `CONTRIBUTING.md` — not affected (no flag references)
User-facing renames of the `templates.mdx` page title, nav entry, and URL route are deferred to PR 11 (catalog discoverability UX) as planned.
## Why
1. **"examples"** matches shadcn + Remotion convention for full-project scaffolds and frees the word "template" for future parameterization work (string templating, placeholder substitution)
2. Once `hyperframes add` lands in PR 5, "template" vs "block" vs "component" would be three subtly different concepts sharing one word — renaming the old one to "example" makes the taxonomy self-explaining
## How
- **citty silently ignores unknown flags.** Naively removing `--template` would cause `hyperframes init my-video --template warm-grain` to silently fall through and scaffold a blank project. So `--template` stays declared in the args schema, but its run handler immediately errors with a rename hint and exits 1
- **Internal names unchanged** — `templateId` local variables, `getStaticTemplateDir` function, `BUNDLED_TEMPLATES` constant. They're implementation details; their rename is scheduled for PR 5 when the compat shims in `packages/cli/src/templates/` are fully removed alongside the `init` refactor
## Test plan
- [x] `bun run test` in `packages/cli`: **72 passed** (was 70 on #254, +2 new `init.test.ts` cases). Same 4 pre-existing failures unchanged
- [x] **New unit tests** in `init.test.ts`:
- `--example blank` non-interactive: exits 0, writes `index.html` to the target dir
- `--template blank` non-interactive: exits non-zero, stderr contains the rename hint + corrected command line, target dir is **not** created
- [x] **Manual smoke:**
- `npx hyperframes init /tmp/x --example blank` → "Created /tmp/x/"
- `npx hyperframes init /tmp/y --template blank` → "The --template flag was renamed to --example..." exit=1
- [x] `bunx oxfmt --check` + `bunx oxlint` on changed files: clean
- [x] Pre-commit typecheck (core + studio): clean
## Incidental fix
Resolver test regression from PR 3's simplify follow-up: `loadAllItems`' warning-path test was still spying on `console.warn` after the `onWarn` callback refactor. Now uses the callback directly.
## Stacks on
#254 — base branch. When #254 merges, this rebases onto `main`.
## Next in stack
PR 5 — `feat(cli): add command + hyperframes.json`. The big UX PR where:
- `init.ts` gets fully ported to the new registry resolver
- Compat shims in `packages/cli/src/templates/` are removed
- Users gain the `add` verb for installing blocks and components into existing projects
- `hyperframes.json` project-config file lands

* feat(skills): add hyperframes-cli skill for CLI workflow guidance
Adds a new skill that teaches AI agents how to use the HyperFrames CLI
(init, lint, dev, render, doctor). Previously, agents had no way to
discover the CLI — the compose-video skill only covered HTML authoring.
This led to agents searching for binaries, finding the monorepo, and
running bun run studio manually instead of using npx hyperframes dev.
Also registers the skill in init.ts so new projects get it bundled
alongside hyperframes-compose and hyperframes-captions.
