James RussoandClaude Opus 4.8 6be46813a2 fix(render): pre-flight aspect-ratio / alpha preset mismatch with actionable guidance (#1843)
Users pick an --resolution preset whose orientation/aspect ratio (or alpha/HDR mode) conflicts with the composition; the render fails deep in the compiler with a cryptic message. ~8K err / ~1K users.

- New shared pure helper checkOutputResolutionCompatibility in @hyperframes/parsers — single source of truth for aspect/alpha/HDR/downsample/non-integer-scale constraints; suggests the matching-orientation, tier-preserving preset.
- CLI render pre-flight aborts early (before browser/ffmpeg) with an actionable, fix-suggesting message; resolveDeviceScaleFactor delegates to the same helper for identical defense-in-depth messages.
- Suggest (not auto-select); defers when dims can't be determined rather than guessing.
- suggestMatchingPreset keys tier off the -4k suffix so square-family swaps (square + landscape-4k -> square-4k) aren't downgraded to HD.
- render.js DOM polyfill made a lazy import; render.test cold-import beforeAll hooks given a 30s timeout to absorb CI contention.

Render-reliability workstream P1-3. Success measured on PostHog dashboard 1783183.

@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)

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 }[]
