## Summary
This stacked PR makes caption overrides refresh-safe.
Caption edits are still saved to `caption-overrides.json`, but override targets are now stable across preview refreshes and regenerated caption HTML.
## Architecture
- **Stable word identity**: generated caption HTML preserves optional transcript word IDs in the `TRANSCRIPT` array and emits those IDs on word spans.
- **Parser continuity**: the caption parser preserves existing transcript word `id` fields instead of regenerating index-only identity.
- **Override loading**: Studio loads saved overrides by `wordId` first, with the existing `wordIndex` fallback kept for older overrides.
- **Idempotent runtime wrapping**: transform overrides reuse an existing `data-caption-wrapper="true"` wrapper instead of nesting wrappers on every refresh.
- **Animation compatibility**: overrides still wrap the word so inner word-level GSAP animation can continue to target the original span.
## User Impact
Users can edit caption word position, scale, rotation, color, opacity, font size, font weight, and font family, then refresh without overrides drifting to the wrong word or accumulating nested wrappers.

* fix(studio): load @hyperframes/player lazily to support SSR
Player.tsx had a bare `import "@hyperframes/player"` at module scope. The
player package registers a class that extends HTMLElement as a side effect,
and HTMLElement doesn't exist in a Node server runtime. Any consumer that
imported from @hyperframes/studio during server-side rendering (e.g. the
Next.js App Router evaluating a client component for SSR) threw
`HTMLElement is not defined`.
Move the import inside the mount effect via dynamic `import(...)` so it
only runs in the browser, and wire up a cancellation flag and deferred
cleanup so a fast unmount doesn't leak listeners or DOM nodes.
* fix(studio): remove .js extensions from captions-internal imports
The captions module imported sibling files as `./types.js` and
`./parser.js`. That's legal ESM TypeScript, but Turbopack (and other
bundlers) refuse to resolve those specifiers against .ts files when the
package is consumed from node_modules — the rest of @hyperframes/studio
uses extensionless imports for that reason.
Align captions with the rest of the codebase so the package builds
without bundler-specific configuration in consumers.
* chore: release @hyperframes/player@0.2.7 and @hyperframes/studio@0.2.9
Ships the root-timeline resolution fix (#247), the SSR-safe player load,
and the captions import cleanup.
* fix(studio): address caption designer PR feedback
Fixes from review comments on feature/caption-designer (#180):
- fix(generator): guard named colors in hexToRgba — "red", "transparent"
no longer produce NaN rgba values
- fix(sync): log auto-save failures instead of silently swallowing them
- fix(sync): check res.ok before parsing caption-overrides response
- refactor(components): extract Section, Row, inputCls into shared.tsx
to eliminate duplication between CaptionPropertyPanel and
CaptionAnimationPanel
- fix(store): replace non-deterministic Date.now()+Math.random() ID with
counter-based group IDs
- fix(store): read selectedGroupId from state param instead of get() to
avoid stale reads in batched set() calls
- fix(overlay): remove cssScale multiplier from getBoundingClientRect
coords — the browser already accounts for CSS transforms
- docs(parser): add comment explaining the lazy ]; regex assumption

* fix(studio): address remaining caption designer feedback
Overlay: handle both per-word spans (generator output) and grouped text
nodes (existing templates). Wraps text nodes into individual spans on
demand so the overlay can target words in any caption format.
Property panel: add Typography (font, size, weight, spacing) and Color
(color, active, dim, opacity) sections alongside existing Position and
Transform controls.
Timeline: move caption timeline into a dedicated flex-shrink-0 section
below the main timeline tracks instead of inside the scrollable area.
Gives it fixed 60px height that's always visible.
Caption overrides: classify color tweens by comparing target color to
the dim baseline instead of relying on timeline position order. This
handles compositions with custom color tweens correctly.
App.tsx: remove polling interval, rely on runtime postMessage events
for caption detection. Add clarifying comment on why useEffect is
appropriate (external event subscription).

* fix(studio): restore cssScale in overlay coordinate conversion
getBoundingClientRect() on iframe-internal elements returns coordinates
in the iframe's native resolution (1920x1080), not the CSS-scaled
display size. The cssScale multiplier is needed to convert to parent
window coordinates. The earlier removal was incorrect — it only worked
at 1:1 scale.

* fix(studio): fix reversed scaling on left-side corner handles
Scale interaction used horizontal dx from start position, which goes
negative when dragging left handles outward. Now uses distance from box
center — dragging away from center increases scale regardless of which
corner handle is used.

* fix(studio): make rotation respond to horizontal drag only
Rotation handle sits directly above the word, so atan2-based rotation
barely responds to left/right movement. Replace with linear horizontal
mapping: drag right = clockwise, drag left = counter-clockwise,
200px = 90 degrees. Vertical movement is ignored.

* fix(studio): remove animation tab and typography/color from property panel
Keep only Position (X, Y) and Transform (Scale, Rotation) controls.
Remove tab switcher UI since there's only one view now.

## Summary
- Rewrite script-to-style mapping as an energy detection table (high → low) with mandatory animation requirements: karaoke baseline, 2+ highlight techniques, kinetic exits
- Replace `tl.call()` per-frame audio-reactive pattern with group-level GSAP tweens — read peak bass/treble for each group's time range and modulate entrance intensity at build time, no per-frame callbacks needed
- Add transcript quality check with automatic retry rules (>20% music tokens = retry with larger model)
- Add caption word structure lint rule (`.caption-group` + `<span>`) for studio editor compatibility
- Add multilingual model guidance and decision tree for model selection
## Test plan
- [ ] Skill files render correctly as markdown
- [ ] Cross-references between SKILL.md, dynamic-techniques.md, and transcript-guide.md resolve correctly
- [ ] `dynamic-techniques.md` audio-reactive section uses `tl.to()`/`tl.set()` only, no `tl.call()` loops
