Miguel Ángel f7c9c35d8b fix(core): route window.__hyperframes to the scoped variant in sub-comps (#1931)
Sub-composition scripts run inside a wrapper that passes the SCOPED
__hyperframes (per-instance getVariables) as a bare script param, while
`window` is a Proxy. That proxy intercepted only __timelines, so
`window.__hyperframes` fell through to the HOST page's base
__hyperframes — whose getVariables reads the host's variables, not this
instance's. So the two documented spellings diverged: the bare
`__hyperframes.getVariables()` param returned the correct per-instance
values, but `window.__hyperframes.getVariables()` returned the wrong
(host / empty) ones, silently rendering every reused instance with the
first instance's content (or defaults).

docs/concepts/variables.mdx already promises both forms "work in both
top-level and sub-composition scripts ... each instance sees its own
resolved values" — the runtime just didn't honor it. Reported directly
(a user lost significant debugging time across three parametrized
sub-comps before discovering the bare param was the only form that
worked), and matches an earlier deferred finding that getVariables()
returns {} for reused sub-comp instances.

Fix: the scoped `window` proxy now returns the scoped __hyperframes for
`prop === "__hyperframes"`, so window.__hyperframes.getVariables() and
the bare param resolve identically to this composition's own variables.
The scoped variant is Object.assign({}, base, { getVariables }), so all
other __hyperframes members still pass through to the base unchanged.

Test: two new executed-wrapper cases (new Function(...)(fakeWindow)) —
window.__hyperframes.getVariables() now returns the per-comp variables
instead of the TOP-LEVEL-LEAK host value, and a non-getVariables member
(fitTextFontSize) still reaches the base. Full core suite (1092) passes.

@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)

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 }[]
