Vance IngallsandClaude Opus 5 a7bb061afe feat(core): inert calibration canaries to validate the mechanism in the wild
Registers two canaries that gate nothing — `calibration-10` (10%) and
`calibration-50` (50%) — so the rollout mechanism can be proven against real
traffic before any real feature depends on it. Zero behavioural risk: they are
read by nothing.

They answer what the unit tests structurally cannot. The tests bucket
generated UUIDs and weight every install equally; real render volume is
heavily skewed toward a few heavy installs, and real install ids churn (~25x
more distinct ids over 30 days than in any single day on the desktop render
population).

Four checks, pre-registered in the docs so the read is not post-hoc:

1. ACCURACY — does 10% land at 10%, install-weighted AND event-weighted?
2. DRIFT — how fast does CUMULATIVE exposure climb above target as ids churn?
   The instantaneous share is flat by construction; the set of installs
   enrolled at some point is not.
3. STABILITY — does any install ever change cohort? Must be zero. Percentages
   are held FIXED for the window precisely so a flip is unambiguously a bug;
   during a real ramp a false->true flip would be correct instead.
4. CROSS-SURFACE — do the CLI and Studio bindings agree for the same install?
   A CLI-launched Studio adopts the CLI id, and 16,961 installs currently
   share an id across both surfaces, so this is measurable.

Plus an independence check: overlap between the two calibration canaries
should be ~p1*p2 (~5%), not ~min(p1,p2) (~10%, which would mean every canary
lands on the same unlucky cohort).

The docs also record what calibration CANNOT fix: per-install cohorts never
flip, but a person who wipes their config gets a new id and a fresh roll.
Preventing that needs stable identity across resets, and both candidates were
rejected — hardware fingerprinting correlates the cohort with hardware (fatal
for a rendering experiment, and it survives uninstall) and account identity
covers only ~3.6% of local rendering installs. The drift is therefore a
measured, accepted limit, and the point of calibrating is to size it and pick
canary window lengths accordingly.

@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 }[]
