- Blocker: arm 3s force-exit timer BEFORE awaiting cleanup, not
inside .finally(). Prevents hang if drainBrowserPool() blocks on
dead Chrome.
- Reorder cleanup: killTrackedProcesses() (sync, fast) runs first,
then async browser drain. Ffmpeg dies immediately instead of
surviving if the hard timer fires early.
- SIGKILL escalation: processTracker now SIGTERMs all tracked
processes, then SIGKILLs survivors after 500ms grace period.
- Scope pgrep to current user (pgrep -u $(id -u)) so orphan
detection doesn't touch other users' Chrome on shared machines.
- Add process.on('exit') handler for crash paths (unhandled
exceptions/rejections that bypass signal handlers).
- Document Windows no-op behavior on killProcessTree handlers.
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

npx hyperframes preview
# Studio running at http://localhost:3002
npx hyperframes preview --port 4567
render
Render a composition to MP4:
npx hyperframes render ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4
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
