James RussoandClaude Opus 4.7 e72bcfaed3 fix(player+core): correctly render and pause nested compositions (#359)
* fix(player): inject runtime immediately for nested compositions

Compositions that use `data-composition-src` on child elements require
the HyperFrames runtime to load those scenes — there is no way for the
iframe to render without it. The existing probe loop delayed runtime
injection behind a 5-tick attempts gate so the adapter path could try
to resolve a timeline first.

For nested compositions that race lost: a composition like the
`product-promo` registry example registers an inline pre-runtime GSAP
timeline at `window.__timelines["main"]` (covering only a partial
duration, e.g. 14s of a 20s master) while the iframe document loads.
The probe's adapter check finds that timeline and locks the player into
a "ready" state against it — which short-circuits the attempts gate and
the runtime never gets injected. The iframe ends up blank because the
runtime is what would have loaded the child scenes via
`data-composition-src`.

This change splits the injection decision into a pure helper,
`shouldInjectRuntime(state)`, and treats nested compositions as
"inject immediately, skip the gate." Self-contained GSAP-only
compositions retain the 5-tick grace period so the adapter path keeps
first shot for them.

* fix(core): propagate play/pause to all sibling timelines

Pausing or playing the master timeline only called `.pause()` / `.play()`
on `state.capturedTimeline` — the single adapter-selected timeline. In a
nested composition (a master with `data-composition-src` children), each
scene's own timeline is registered as a sibling in `window.__timelines`,
so they would keep advancing after the user clicked pause. The player UI
froze at the paused time while the visual content continued to animate,
eventually finishing all scene-level animations and landing on an empty
end-state.

Wire `window.__timelines` into the runtime player via a new
`getTimelineRegistry` dep, iterate the registry on play/pause, and
forward `timeScale` to siblings when play() starts so a changed
playback-rate applies uniformly.

Covered by 7 new unit tests in player.test.ts, including the identity-
equality check (don't double-invoke the master), playbackRate
propagation, a broken-sibling swallow, and a back-compat case with no
registry supplied.

@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 }[]
