`paintVfx` fired `capturePreviewThenPaint` and forgot it, so nothing the CLI awaits waited for a `self` chain's paint. Every snapshot-family command (`snapshot`, `check`, `compare`, `validate`, `layout`) seeks through `seekCompositionTimeline`, which drains `window.__hfWaitForSeekCompletion` and then allows one settle race before screenshotting — and only the `"hf-seek"` event's `waitUntil()` could put anything in that barrier. The screenshot therefore landed on however many hosts happened to have finished, which varied with host count and machine speed. Extracts the "track, untrack on settle, retain the first rejection" block `dispatch()` built inline into an exported `registerSeekCompletion`, and has `paintVfx` register the preview capture through it. Also awaits the per-host paints with `Promise.all` instead of sequentially: N hosts cost about two animation frames now, not 2N. Measured on the pre-fix bundle with two `self` hosts, both output canvases read `[0,0,0,0]` at the moment the barrier returned; they painted only because the settle race that follows happened to be long enough. Both tests added here fail on that bundle. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 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 }[]
