* feat(cli,core): add standalone transcribe command, transcript normalization, and caption lint rules
- Add `hyperframes transcribe` command for transcribing audio/video and importing
existing transcripts (SRT, VTT, OpenAI Whisper API JSON, whisper.cpp JSON)
- Add transcript format normalizer (normalize.ts) with auto-detection and
conversion to standard [{text, start, end}] word arrays
- Upgrade default whisper model from base.en to small.en for better accuracy
- Add --model and --language flags to both `transcribe` and `init` commands
- Extract shared patchCaptionHtml() to eliminate duplication between init.ts
and transcribe.ts (init.ts reduced by ~55 lines)
- Add 3 caption lint rules: caption_exit_missing_hard_kill,
caption_text_overflow_risk, caption_container_relative_position
- Update captions skill with model guide, format docs, music guidance,
text overflow prevention, caption exit guarantee pattern
- Expand captions skill trigger to cover lyrics, karaoke, lyric videos

* docs(cli): add transcribe command and --model/--language flags to CLI docs

* fix(cli): fix blank template lint issues
- blank/index.html: remove data-start from video (was nested in timed parent),
add class="clip" for initial hidden state
- blank/captions.html: add max-width + overflow:hidden to prevent text clipping,
add tl.set hard kill after exit tween to prevent stuck captions

* docs: add lint-after-edit rule to repo and project CLAUDE.md
Agents must run `npx hyperframes lint` after editing compositions.
Also expand captions skill description in project template.
