The runtime absorbed a series of authoring mistakes over time and `runtime/init.ts` says so in its own comments, but the skills kept teaching the old rules. Four of them actively cost an agent a failing run: add `crossorigin` (lint rejects it unconditionally), never build a timeline inside `async` (lint calls that the documented contract), never `gsap.set` later-scene clips (two fixHints instruct exactly that), and 12 copyable media snippets with no `id`, which render silent. Corrected in every place each claim appeared, including `hyperframes-animation`, three workflow scripts, the scaffolded project instructions, the CLI `docs` command, and the public docs site: `data-track-index` is a Studio display lane the render never reads, `class="clip"` is a layout convention rather than a visibility requirement, timed elements may nest, the visibility window is half-open, sub-composition host dimensions are backfilled, and the root-fill rule applies only to the layered-composite path. Behaviour changes, each backed by a render rather than by reading code: - `timeline_registry_missing_init` deleted. The runtime creates the registry before any inline script; a composition without the guard line renders and animates correctly. - `video_nested_in_timed_element` kept, message corrected. A rendered repro shows the nested-with-local-start case really does break, so the rule guards a real defect, but nothing is "FROZEN": the extractor ignores the wrapper's offset while visibility uses it, so the clip shows wrong frames and then vanishes. - `mediaRenderIds` now stamps media whose source is a `<source>` child, closing a duplicate-id gap the old `[src]`-only selector left open. - Stale messages fixed on `subcomposition_root_styled_by_class` and `deprecated_data_layer`. `coreSkillContent.test.ts` pinned the literal sentence that made root `data-start` look required, so it is narrowed to structure plus the regression it genuinely catches. Not covered, and flagged in the PR: the media global-vs-local start heuristic in `runtime/init.ts` is the root cause behind the nested-video defect. Removing it changes the meaning of existing compositions and needs its own deprecation.
@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 }[]
