Xuanru Li bb49858b8a feat(cli): hyperframes audio measures where sounds land, in film time (#5602)
* feat(cli): hyperframes audio measures where sounds land, in film time

Adds @hyperframes/core/audio-analysis: an energy envelope, spectral-flux
and energy onsets, the moments a sound lands (onset, steepest rise, peak,
tail end), BS.1770 loudness with true peak, silence spans and a first
guess at sfx/voice/music, all pure functions of PCM. Each capability runs
through a provider ladder so model or service providers can join later.
The radix-2 FFT moves out of audioCarve so both share it.

`hyperframes audio` decodes with FFmpeg and analyzes files, or the film's
own audio and video clips by element, second, range or boundary, reading
only the part of each file that plays. Timeline rows now carry
`mediaStart`, moved by an in-point host's cut, so file time maps to film
time.

* feat(cli): audio placements carry the element's own data-start, local to its composition

* feat(cli): audio placements carry the element's own data-start, local to its composition

* feat(cli): audio places a file with --place-at, drops --boundary

--start becomes --place-at and --media-start becomes --skip-file-seconds,
which only goes with --place-at, refuses to skip the whole file, and warns
when the skipped part held the file's loudest moment. --boundary is gone:
--at and --range cover the sounds a cut touches.

* fix(cli): pass a sound file to ffprobe as a file, on every platform

ffprobe treated a name starting with a dash as an option because the argument
list never ended the flags. The path check compared a Windows drive path to a
POSIX string, and a new timeline comment raised that file's comment share.

* fix(cli): hear a reversed stereo channel, and warn when its peak was skipped

Averaging the channels cancelled a reversed one, so a real hit was reported
as silence. The skip warning also compared against the decode margin, so a
peak just before the kept window produced no warning.

# hyperframes
CLI for creating, previewing, and rendering HTML video compositions.
## Install
```bash
npm install -g hyperframes
```
Or use directly with npx:
```bash
npx hyperframes <command>
```
**Requirements:** Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg
## Commands
### `init`
Scaffold a new Hyperframes project from a template:
```bash
npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video
```
### `preview`
Start the live preview studio in your browser:
```bash
npx hyperframes preview
# Studio: http://localhost:3002/#project/my-video
# Server: http://localhost:3002
npx hyperframes preview --port 4567
```
In an interactive terminal, the preview stays attached until you press
Ctrl+C. In a non-interactive shell such as a coding-agent session, the same
command starts a managed preview that survives after the command returns. Use
`--background` or `--foreground` to choose explicitly, and manage persistent
previews with `--status`, `--stop`, `--list`, and `--kill-all`. Add `--json` to
managed lifecycle commands for machine-readable output. `--foreground --json`
prints the ready-session envelope once, then remains attached until stopped.
### `audio`
Measure where sounds land: onsets, the moment each sound peaks, loudness and
silence. Give files, or query the film's own clips in film time:
```bash
npx hyperframes audio sfx/whoosh.mp3
npx hyperframes audio --at 12 --json
```
### `normalize-audio`
Measure two local authored audio clips with integrated LUFS and match the target
to the unchanged reference. The command is a dry run unless `--write` is passed:
```bash
npx hyperframes normalize-audio --reference target-audio --target user-audio
npx hyperframes normalize-audio --reference target-audio --target user-audio --write
```
It updates only the target element's `data-volume` and refuses unsafe boosts
that exceed Studio's +12 dB ceiling or would clip.
### `render`
Render a composition to MP4. Run from the project directory; the positional
argument is the project directory (not a file), so render the project's
`index.html` directly, or point at a specific composition file with `-c`:
```bash
npx hyperframes render -o output.mp4
npx hyperframes render -c ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4
```
A render stops when the process that started it exits. To keep one running after
its launcher exits, set `HYPERFRAMES_RENDER_DETACHED=1` and start it in its own
process group, e.g. `bash -c 'set -m; HYPERFRAMES_RENDER_DETACHED=1 npx hyperframes render -o out.mp4 < /dev/null > render.log 2>&1 &'`.
Piped, non-quiet renders emit a single `@hf-diagnostic ` JSON line when an audio
failure reaches the CLI error handler. Version 1 has `operation: "render"` and
at most 16 `audioFailures`: allowlisted stage, reason, owner, retryable, and
optional subprocess exit code, signal, termination reason and OS code. It omits
messages, stderr, source paths/URLs, element IDs and command arguments. Consumers
must ignore unknown versions and fields. This is local CLI output; uploading it
requires the caller's existing consent and privacy checks. Quiet mode (including
batch JSON mode) emits no diagnostic line.
This covers audio preparation and mix failures, including the typed external
interruption path. Probe failures retain their existing stage/reason but do not
gain subprocess evidence here; browser/FX failures remain classified as internal.
Desktop ingestion and live report delivery are separate changes.
### `publish`
Upload a project directory and get a hosted URL that keeps working after the CLI exits.
Published projects are private by default:
```bash
npx hyperframes publish
npx hyperframes publish ./my-video
npx hyperframes publish --public
npx hyperframes publish --yes
```
Signed-out publishing returns an authentication-required claim URL; opening it
lets someone sign in and claim the project. Sign in first with
`npx hyperframes auth login` to publish an owned project you can update. Use
`--public` to make the claimed project visible to anyone. `--yes` only skips the
confirmation prompt and does not change visibility.
Signed-in publishers can use `--update <url-or-id>` to target an existing project
or `--space <space-id>` to publish into a shared team space. If the requested
project is missing or inaccessible, publishing can create a new project instead;
check the printed URL and status.
See the [publish reference](https://hyperframes.heygen.com/packages/cli#publish)
for all options, including video proxy settings.
### `lint`
Validate your Hyperframes HTML:
```bash
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:
```bash
npx hyperframes compositions
```
### `benchmark`
Run rendering benchmarks:
```bash
npx hyperframes benchmark ./my-composition.html
```
### `doctor`
Check your environment for required dependencies (Chrome, FFmpeg, Node.js):
```bash
npx hyperframes doctor
```
### `browser`
Manage the bundled Chrome/Chromium installation:
```bash
npx hyperframes browser
```
### `info`
Print version and environment info:
```bash
npx hyperframes info
```
### `docs`
Open the documentation in your browser:
```bash
npx hyperframes docs
```
### `upgrade`
Check for updates and show upgrade instructions:
```bash
npx hyperframes upgrade
npx hyperframes upgrade --check --json # machine-readable for agents
```
