Miguel Ángel 9fd90d23c4 fix(core): long cut-list edits play every cut without dropped or late frames (#6785)
* fix(core): a video plays to the last frame before its out-point instead of stopping a frame early

* fix(core): a dropped frame before an out-point no longer lets the out-point's frame show

* perf(core): a video edit with no animation timeline stops rewriting every clip each frame

* refactor(core): drop the comments the comment ratchet counts

* fix(core): a clip that has fully downloaded stays loaded and plays on time

* refactor(core): drop the comments the comment ratchet counts

@hyperframes/core

Types, parsers, generators, compiler, linter, runtime, and frame adapters for the Hyperframes video framework.

Install

npm install @hyperframes/core

Most users don't need to install core directly — the CLI, producer, and studio packages depend on it internally.

What's inside

Module Description
Types TimelineElement, CompositionSpec, Asset, canvas dimensions, defaults
Parsers parseHtml — extract timeline elements from HTML; parseGsapScript — parse GSAP animations
Generators generateHyperframesHtml — produce valid Hyperframes HTML from a composition spec
Compiler compileTimingAttrs — resolve data-start / data-duration into absolute times
Linter lintHyperframeHtml — validate Hyperframes HTML (missing attributes, overlapping tracks, etc.)
Runtime IIFE script injected into the browser — manages seek, media playback, and the window.__hf protocol
Frame Adapters Pluggable animation drivers (GSAP, Lottie, CSS, or custom)

Generated composition trust

Composition generators require trusted authors for code-bearing inputs. styles and generateHyperframesStyles preserve authored CSS, which can load external resources. animations may contain __raw: values that are emitted as JavaScript; includeScripts: true includes executable timeline code. serializeGsapAnimations also accepts raw preamble, postamble, and a code-bearing timelineVar. Never fill these inputs with untrusted data. Attribute encoding and closing-tag containment are not a sandbox; render untrusted compositions in an appropriately isolated execution environment and never serve them on a privileged origin.

Text content retains the supported inline-formatting sanitizer contract. The clip parser intentionally flattens inner formatting to text, so parse/generate is not a lossless replacement for editing the source HTML.

Frame Adapters

A frame adapter tells the engine how to seek your animation to a specific frame:

import { createGSAPFrameAdapter } from "@hyperframes/core";

const adapter = createGSAPFrameAdapter({
  getTimeline: () => gsap.timeline(),
  compositionId: "my-video",
});

Implement FrameAdapter for custom animation runtimes:

import type { FrameAdapter } from "@hyperframes/core";

const myAdapter: FrameAdapter = {
  id: "my-adapter",
  getDurationFrames: () => 300,
  seekFrame: (frame) => {
    /* seek your animation */
  },
};

Parsing and generating HTML

import { parseHtml, generateHyperframesHtml } from "@hyperframes/core";

const { elements, metadata } = parseHtml(htmlString);
const html = generateHyperframesHtml(spec);

Linting

import { lintHyperframeHtml } from "@hyperframes/core/lint";

const result = lintHyperframeHtml(htmlString);
// result.findings: { severity, message, elementId }[]
