Vance IngallsandClaude Opus 5 6056ec7463 fix(studio): close seven defects a review found in the previous two commits
Sixth review pass. Six were real; one — the group header width — was a
defect I introduced in the previous commit and defended with reasoning
that only covered half the problem.

The header overhang was wrong. `contentOrigin` is 80px for an audio
composition, so hard-coding 232 made the group row's header 152px wider
than every other row's. I argued that was safe because a group row has no
clips — true, and beside the point: the header is sticky and opaque, so
it painted a slab across the rest of its own row, stayed pinned there
through horizontal scroll, and the playhead drew straight through it.
Groups now turn `labelMode` on instead, which is what that flag is for.
Every row gets the same 232px header, verified in the browser.

Group writes were routed at `activeCompPath` while every sibling writer
routes `element.sourceFile || activeCompPath`. Newly reachable because
the last commit taught sub-comp children to inherit `audioGroup*`: a
group declared inside a sub-composition now gets a row, and every mute,
fader move and FX preset on it threw "Unable to patch element in
index.html".

`Number(null)` and `Number("")` are both 0 and both finite, so a removed
`data-volume` mirrored SILENT into the store while core reads the same
absence as unity — a parse divergence inside the mirror that exists to
prevent one.

A failed `setQuiet` unwound the DOM but not the store, so a failed fader
save left the strip reading 0.4 while the preview played 1.0, with
nothing to re-parse and correct it.

`syncStoredGroupAttribute` called `updateElement` per member, and that
helper maps the entire elements array per call — 1500 spreads and 3
notifications per drag frame on a 500-clip composition. One pass now.

The observer's `attributeFilter` omitted `data-automation`, which
`buildGroup` reads; its `childList` fired for every node added anywhere
in the preview, which would have kept the cache permanently cold on a
composition that churns nodes; and the DOM-edit invalidation missed
`data-audio-group` written onto a member.

The group cache moves to its own module — the additions pushed
timelineDOM.ts past the 600-line ceiling.

@hyperframes/studio

Browser-based composition editor UI for Hyperframes. Provides a visual timeline, code editor, and live preview for building video compositions.

Install

npm install @hyperframes/studio

What it does

The studio is a React application with:

  • Visual timeline — drag, resize, and arrange elements on tracks
  • Code editor — edit HTML and GSAP scripts with CodeMirror (syntax highlighting, autocomplete)
  • Live preview — see changes in real time as you edit
  • Composition inspector — view and modify element properties

Development

The studio is embedded in the hyperframes preview command. To develop the studio UI itself:

cd packages/studio
bun run dev        # Start Vite dev server
bun run build      # Build for production
bun run typecheck  # Type-check

Tech stack

  • React 18/19, Zustand (state management)
  • CodeMirror 6 (editor)
  • Tailwind CSS (styling)
  • Vite (bundler)
  • Phosphor Icons
