James RussoandClaude Opus 4.8 8a13a07074 feat(studio): add storyboard manifest contract, parser, and read API (#1528)
First PR in the Studio storyboarding stack. Establishes the parseable
contract the storyboard UI reads from; no UI yet.

- core/storyboard: StoryboardManifest/Frame/Globals types + a lenient
  STORYBOARD.md parser (frontmatter + status/src/duration/transition_in,
  freeform narrative tolerated, never throws, records warnings). Exposed as
  @hyperframes/core/storyboard (browser-safe).
- studio-api: GET /projects/:id/storyboard returns the normalized manifest
  with per-frame srcExists; missing file -> exists:false, not 404.
- fixture: packages/studio/fixtures/storyboard-sample for dogfooding the
  storyboard view in later PRs (built/animated frames + one outline).

1920x1080 Ship a launch video in an afternoon Hook → Problem → Solution → Proof → CTA indie devs on X Rachel — 5 lines from SCRIPT.md

Frame 1 — Hook

  • scene: Big type punches in on the beat
  • duration: 3s
  • poster: 2s
  • transition_in: cut
  • status: animated
  • voiceover: "Ship a launch video in an afternoon."
  • src: compositions/frames/01-hook.html

Open cold on the promise. Big type punches in on the beat: "Ship a launch video in an afternoon." This is the thesis — everything after pays it off.

Frame 2 — The problem

  • scene: A 20-minute timer spins on a stack of rejected takes
  • duration: 4s
  • poster: 2.6s
  • transition_in: crossfade
  • status: animated
  • voiceover: "The old way? Prompt, wait twenty minutes, get something that misses."
  • src: compositions/frames/02-problem.html

The old way: prompt, wait twenty minutes, get something that misses. A timer spins while a stack of rejected takes piles up. Establish the pain we remove.

Frame 3 — The feature in action

  • scene: Frames line up as a contact sheet
  • duration: 5s
  • poster: 3.3s
  • transition_in: crossfade
  • status: built
  • voiceover: "You lock the story first — then it animates."
  • src: compositions/frames/03-feature.html

Cut to the storyboard view itself. Frames line up as a contact sheet and the narration says "...you lock the story first, then it animates." Show, don't tell.

Frame 4 — Proof

  • scene: A stat counts up to the payoff number
  • duration: 4s
  • poster: 2.6s
  • transition_in: wipe
  • status: built
  • voiceover: "Fewer re-renders. More finished videos."
  • src: compositions/frames/04-proof.html

A real metric lands: fewer re-renders per finished video. Number counts up while a caption credits the storyboard-first flow.

Frame 5 — Call to action

  • scene: End card with the wordmark and a one-line CTA
  • duration: 3s
  • transition_in: crossfade
  • status: outline
  • voiceover: "Try it: npx hyperframes."
  • src: compositions/frames/05-cta.html

End card, still an outline. "Try it: npx hyperframes" with the wordmark. Not built yet — this frame should render as an outline placeholder in the grid.
