## 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

## Summary
**Whisper improvements:**
- Auto-detect language and switch from `.en` to multilingual model when needed
- Detect speech onset in WAV to strip hallucinated words before speech begins
- Merge whisper-cpp token fragments: contractions (`didn` + `'t` → `didn't`), split capitals (`C` + `aught` → `Caught`), dropped-g (`shin` + `in'` → `shinin'`)
- Interpolate zero-duration word clusters for reliable karaoke timing
**Captions skill updates (folded from #176):**
- 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
- 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
**Multilingual defaults (folded from #186):**
- Default whisper model changed from `small.en` to `small` to prevent silent translation of non-English audio
- Added non-negotiable language rule to captions skill
## Test plan
- [ ] `pnpm test` passes (contraction merging, fragment merging, zero-duration interpolation, speech onset)
- [ ] Transcribe non-English audio — verify it transcribes in original language, not translates
- [ ] Skill files render correctly, cross-references resolve
- [ ] `dynamic-techniques.md` audio-reactive section uses `tl.to()`/`tl.set()` only, no `tl.call()` loops

* feat(cli,core): add standalone transcribe command, transcript normalization, and caption lint rules
- Add `hyperframes transcribe` command for transcribing audio/video and importing
existing transcripts (SRT, VTT, OpenAI Whisper API JSON, whisper.cpp JSON)
- Add transcript format normalizer (normalize.ts) with auto-detection and
conversion to standard [{text, start, end}] word arrays
- Upgrade default whisper model from base.en to small.en for better accuracy
- Add --model and --language flags to both `transcribe` and `init` commands
- Extract shared patchCaptionHtml() to eliminate duplication between init.ts
and transcribe.ts (init.ts reduced by ~55 lines)
- Add 3 caption lint rules: caption_exit_missing_hard_kill,
caption_text_overflow_risk, caption_container_relative_position
- Update captions skill with model guide, format docs, music guidance,
text overflow prevention, caption exit guarantee pattern
- Expand captions skill trigger to cover lyrics, karaoke, lyric videos

* docs(cli): add transcribe command and --model/--language flags to CLI docs
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(cli): fix blank template lint issues
- blank/index.html: remove data-start from video (was nested in timed parent),
add class="clip" for initial hidden state
- blank/captions.html: add max-width + overflow:hidden to prevent text clipping,
add tl.set hard kill after exit tween to prevent stuck captions

* docs: add lint-after-edit rule to repo and project CLAUDE.md
Agents must run `npx hyperframes lint` after editing compositions.
Also expand captions skill description in project template.
