James aa715ca8a0 feat(core,studio,cli): add square + square-4k canvas resolutions
The four existing presets only cover 16:9 (landscape) and 9:16 (portrait)
aspect ratios. A 1080×1080 square comp had nowhere to land at any scale:
"Auto" rendered at the comp's authored 1080×1080, and picking 1080p or 4K
mapped to a landscape/portrait preset whose aspect ratio mismatched, which
the producer's resolveDeviceScaleFactor validator rejects with
"does not match the aspect ratio of the composition".

Add `square` (1080×1080) and `square-4k` (2160×2160) to CANVAS_DIMENSIONS
in core. The existing `keyof typeof CANVAS_DIMENSIONS` derivation
extends the `CanvasResolution` union and `VALID_CANVAS_RESOLUTIONS` array
automatically, so the producer's validator, the render API route, and
the CLI `--resolution` flag pick the new presets up without further
changes.

- core: extend CANVAS_DIMENSIONS, RESOLUTION_ALIASES, and the
  htmlParser to recognize `data-resolution="square|square-4k"` and to
  infer square from equal width/height (vs. the prior "square defaults
  to portrait" tie-breaker).
- studio: extend the local ResolutionPreset / CANVAS_DIMENSIONS mirrors;
  collapse isPortraitComp into a 3-way `compAspect` helper so
  resolveResolution returns the square preset for square comps.
- cli: update --resolution help text on `init` and `render` to mention
  the new presets.
- tests: add square cases to renderOrchestrator's resolveDeviceScaleFactor
  suite (returns 1 for square→square, 2 for square→square-4k, rejects
  landscape preset on square comp), update the htmlParser test that
  previously pinned the "square→portrait" tiebreaker.

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 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

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
