* fix(studio): serve files whose name has a bare percent sign A browser sends src="100%.png" with the % unescaped, and decoding the whole path threw, so Studio answered 500. Only well-formed escapes are decoded now. * fix(cli): serve files with a bare percent sign from the check and snapshot server One shared decode rule for request paths; the image thumbnail route's malformed-escape 400 could no longer fire, so a name that is not a file is a 404. * fix(cli): name a failed file with a bare percent sign in check * fix(studio): keep apostrophes and dollar signs in file names when editing attributes An attribute value is matched by its own quote kind, so src="it's.png" is replaced instead of duplicated, and every insert uses a function replacer, so $1 or $& in a file name is written as is. * fix(studio): rename references spelled with %20 or & and read quoted media sources WIP: not yet tested; see the resume note. * fix(studio): match whole attribute names when editing media sources * fix(studio): compare decoded names and escape replacement references * fix(studio): preserve file references across URL and string consumers * docs: clarify raw file references and URL fields * fix(studio): keep raw path identity distinct from URL spelling * fix: share attribute grammar and decode media URLs at their readers * fix: preserve local filename identity in HTML URL output * fix: decode entity references before rename candidate matching * style: format rename entity handling and regressions * fix: preserve platform file identity when renaming references * fix(core): decode CSS escapes before rebasing asset URLs * fix(core): consume CSS continuations before URL encoding * fix(core): preserve CSS URL identity and escape rebased suffixes * fix(core): express CSS suffix controls with Unicode categories * fix(core): preserve URL backslash identity while rebasing * test(core): respect platform backslash filename semantics * fix(studio): a dropped file with %, # or ? in its name loads, and an encoded reference renames * fix(studio): read an authored src as a URL so dropped files with spaces, %, # or ? load * fix(studio): media routes find files named with ? or #, and the probe reads a src as a URL * fix(studio-server): one rule for request file paths, so loudness finds files named with %, # or ? * chore: drop the design note from the change * fix(core): rename replaced clips whose src is URL-encoded
hyperframes
CLI for creating, previewing, and rendering HTML video compositions.
Install
npm install -g hyperframes
Or use directly with npx:
npx hyperframes <command>
Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg
Commands
init
Scaffold a new Hyperframes project from a template:
npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video
preview
Start the live preview studio in your browser:
npx hyperframes preview
# Studio: http://localhost:3002/#project/my-video
# Server: http://localhost:3002
npx hyperframes preview --port 4567
In an interactive terminal, the preview stays attached until you press
Ctrl+C. In a non-interactive shell such as a coding-agent session, the same
command starts a managed preview that survives after the command returns. Use
--background or --foreground to choose explicitly, and manage persistent
previews with --status, --stop, --list, and --kill-all. Add --json to
managed lifecycle commands for machine-readable output. --foreground --json
prints the ready-session envelope once, then remains attached until stopped.
normalize-audio
Measure two local authored audio clips with integrated LUFS and match the target
to the unchanged reference. The command is a dry run unless --write is passed:
npx hyperframes normalize-audio --reference target-audio --target user-audio
npx hyperframes normalize-audio --reference target-audio --target user-audio --write
It updates only the target element's data-volume and refuses unsafe boosts
that exceed Studio's +12 dB ceiling or would clip.
render
Render a composition to MP4. Run from the project directory; the positional
argument is the project directory (not a file), so render the project's
index.html directly, or point at a specific composition file with -c:
npx hyperframes render -o output.mp4
npx hyperframes render -c ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4
Set HYPERFRAMES_RENDER_DETACHED=1 when starting a render with nohup or
disown so it keeps running after the invoking shell exits.
publish
Upload a project directory and get a hosted URL that keeps working after the CLI exits. Published projects are private by default:
npx hyperframes publish
npx hyperframes publish ./my-video
npx hyperframes publish --public
npx hyperframes publish --yes
Signed-out publishing returns an authentication-required claim URL; opening it
lets someone sign in and claim the project. Sign in first with
npx hyperframes auth login to publish an owned project you can update. Use
--public to make the claimed project visible to anyone. --yes only skips the
confirmation prompt and does not change visibility.
Signed-in publishers can use --update <url-or-id> to target an existing project
or --space <space-id> to publish into a shared team space. If the requested
project is missing or inaccessible, publishing can create a new project instead;
check the printed URL and status.
See the publish reference for all options, including video proxy settings.
lint
Validate your Hyperframes HTML:
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --json # JSON output for CI/tooling
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --verbose # Include info-level findings
By default only errors and warnings are shown. Use --verbose to also display informational findings (e.g., external script dependency notices). Use --json for machine-readable output with errorCount, warningCount, infoCount, and a findings array.
compositions
List compositions found in the current project:
npx hyperframes compositions
benchmark
Run rendering benchmarks:
npx hyperframes benchmark ./my-composition.html
doctor
Check your environment for required dependencies (Chrome, FFmpeg, Node.js):
npx hyperframes doctor
browser
Manage the bundled Chrome/Chromium installation:
npx hyperframes browser
info
Print version and environment info:
npx hyperframes info
docs
Open the documentation in your browser:
npx hyperframes docs
upgrade
Check for updates and show upgrade instructions:
npx hyperframes upgrade
npx hyperframes upgrade --check --json # machine-readable for agents
