Make the lifecycle from the previous change safe for real compositions. - Frames are drawn in device pixels: the canvases and the compositor buffers follow the page's scale, so a 2x render is not blurred at half resolution. - A render never gives up mid-video: a frame whose capture throws is plain DOM and the next one wraps again; in Studio, three capture exceptions in a row turn blur off. (Paint timeouts render plain and never count; they are handled in the previous change.) - A hidden preview tab rests on plain DOM instead of waiting on paints that never come. - Timeline callbacks no longer fire during the mover scan, even with data-motion-blur-events="on". - Wrapping and unwrapping the root no longer reload iframes, restart CSS animations or leak timing invalidations: each move runs through the runtime's record filter and the adapters re-seek right after it. The waapi adapter drops animations Chrome cancelled, limited to browser-created CSS animations (a small, separate hunk in adapters/waapi.ts). - Studio preview holds the playback seek while a blurred frame is in flight, so the poses and both captures belong to the same time. - The host exposes now() for the re-seek. - Tests for the wrap, two-phase and painting paths, and for the guards that survived a deliberate break. Folded review fixes: R4, R8, R9 (runtime, init and waapi parts), R11, T1. Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
@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 }[]
