* refactor(skills): consolidate 15 skills into 3 for better trigger reliability Merge 9 GSAP skills (core, timeline, scrolltrigger, plugins, utils, react, frameworks, performance, effects) and 6 HyperFrames skills (compose, captions, tts, audio-reactive, marker-highlight, cli) into 3 consolidated skills: - `gsap` — core API + timelines + performance in SKILL.md; scrolltrigger, plugins, utils, react, frameworks, effects in references/ - `hyperframes` — composition authoring rules in SKILL.md; captions, tts, audio-reactive, marker-highlight in references/ - `hyperframes-cli` — CLI commands (init, lint, preview, render, etc.) Why: With 15 separate skills, agents must correctly trigger the right subset for any task. "Create an animated video with captions" needed 6+ skills to fire — each with ~90% trigger accuracy means ~53% chance of getting all of them. With 3 skills, that same task needs just `hyperframes` + `gsap` (~90% both fire). Progressive disclosure still works via references/ files loaded on demand. Also fixes: CLAUDE.md referenced `window.__GSAP_TIMELINE` (incorrect) — corrected to `window.__timelines`.

Useful when skills are already installed or when the user wants to scaffold without them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(skills): address code review feedback on consolidation Restore content lost during over-compression: - captions: fix overflow to `visible` (not hidden — clips glow effects), add container pattern warning, scale headroom formula, and self-lint placement guidance - audio-reactive: restore sampling frequency pattern (per-frame tl.call loop vs single tween) and textShadow-on-container gotcha - effects/typewriter: restore word rotation, appending words, spacing with static text, and multi-line cursor handoff patterns - effects/audio-visualizer: restore spatial mapping conventions, fetch vs inline loading, WebGL/DOM rendering approaches, and canvas layering - hyperframes-cli: restore --strict-all flag in render flags table Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(cli): update build:copy and template for consolidated skill names - build:copy: reference skills/hyperframes, skills/hyperframes-cli, skills/gsap instead of the old 15 skill directory names - _shared/CLAUDE.md template: update skill table to consolidated names Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
hyperframes
CLI for creating, previewing, and rendering HTML video compositions.
Install
npm install -g hyperframes
Or use directly with npx:
npx hyperframes <command>
Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg
Commands
init
Scaffold a new Hyperframes project from a template:
npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video
preview
Start the live preview studio in your browser:
npx hyperframes preview
# Studio running at http://localhost:3002
npx hyperframes preview --port 4567
render
Render a composition to MP4:
npx hyperframes render ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4
lint
Validate your Hyperframes HTML:
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --json # JSON output for CI/tooling
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --verbose # Include info-level findings
By default only errors and warnings are shown. Use --verbose to also display informational findings (e.g., external script dependency notices). Use --json for machine-readable output with errorCount, warningCount, infoCount, and a findings array.
compositions
List compositions found in the current project:
npx hyperframes compositions
benchmark
Run rendering benchmarks:
npx hyperframes benchmark ./my-composition.html
doctor
Check your environment for required dependencies (Chrome, FFmpeg, Node.js):
npx hyperframes doctor
browser
Manage the bundled Chrome/Chromium installation:
npx hyperframes browser
info
Print version and environment info:
npx hyperframes info
docs
Open the documentation in your browser:
npx hyperframes docs
upgrade
Check for updates and show upgrade instructions:
npx hyperframes upgrade
npx hyperframes upgrade --check --json # machine-readable for agents
