* feat(studio,cli): per-frame board comments, self-refreshing storyboard, status-aware preview landing Per-frame comment boxes on the storyboard board batch into .hyperframes/frame-comments.json (a resubmit wins per frame; unconsumed comments on other frames are kept). Submitted-but-unconsumed comments stay visible — a toolbar banner plus a per-tile echo — until the agent consumes the file; the banner also says what to do next (reply anything in the agent chat). The board keeps itself current: GET /projects/:id/signature exposes the watcher-cached project signature, the storyboard payload carries the signature it was derived from, and the view polls at 2s (hidden tabs skipped, re-checked on visibility), refetching in place with no loading flash. Posters bake the signature into their URL so tiles fill in as sketches land and a poster that failed mid-write retries on the next version; the empty state upgrades itself when STORYBOARD.md appears, and its handoff prompt now points the agent at the review loop and uses the parser's real status vocabulary (outline, not planned). preview lands the browser on the storyboard view while the board is the review surface — any frame built, or pure planning (srcs declared, none on disk yet) — and on the timeline once the video is assembled. * feat(skills): the review loop — plan, sketch, build as one shared process hyperframes-core/references/review-loop.md is the single source for the three-pass collaborative review: the plan proposed on a live board (§ 1), wireframe sketches marked built with one layout question (§ 2 — real words on plain blocks, run no CLI; a confirmed board is itself a valid deliverable when the user asked for a storyboard, not a video), the build dressing confirmed layouts (§ 3, worker or inline), and the final look (§ 4). Autonomous runs skip every gate and keep one question before render. The three narrative workflows' Steps 3/4/6 collapse to references plus their sketch stand-ins (captured-asset blocks for product-launch-video, plain code panels for pr-to-video); the confirmed-sketch handoff stays in each frame-worker prompt. general-video plans on a board for multi-scene narrative pieces in collaborative mode — its sketch pass is layout-before-animation with the user watching. The router treats "I want a storyboard" as a process request rather than a route, and closes exploratory intake by recommending a route plus how the run will review. The supporting contracts land next door: the comments channel (silent submit, one reply picks it up, check the file before the words) in brief-contract § 1; the sidecar schema and the built status rung in storyboard-format; the mode question asked first and alone in the three workflows' Step 0. * feat(media-use): user memory — remembered preferences and frozen recipes Two tiers of memory on media-use's existing two-tier storage split. Preferences (lightweight): confirmed brief answers — destination, aspect, language, mode, voice, style preset — recorded to the project's .media/preferences.json (committed, the team inherits it) and promoted to the personal ~/.media/preferences.json once the same value is confirmed in two different projects (a sightings ledger accumulates the cross-project evidence user-side, since project files can't see each other). prefs.mjs get/record; merge reads project-over-user; a changed value restarts its provenance. Recipes (heavyweight): one approved run frozen as a named, versioned bundle — frame.md, the storyboard skeleton (structure kept: durations, transitions, srcs, Video direction; statuses reset to outline; content blanked to per-frame fill-ins naming the beat's role), and the confirmed brief values. Named folders, not content hashes: re-freezing bumps version and archives <name>@v<N>; a freeze is already confirmed, so it promotes to the user tier immediately. recipe.mjs freeze/list/use, plus resolve --type recipe --entity <name> delegating like grade/lut. 16 new node --test cases; the media-use lib suite is 168/168. * feat(skills): wire user memory into the brief and the review loop brief-contract § 2 gains Remembered defaults: read the merged preferences before Round 2 and let a remembered value become the recommended option with a receipt naming its source project. Memory changes the default, never the question — every ask-marked field still gets asked, and what the request says this time beats what was picked last time. Record only what the user actually confirmed (a defaulted voice nobody chose is not an answer; a "go" that accepts the recommended defaults is). The first record announces itself once; after that the receipts carry the reminder. In autonomous mode a remembered value becomes the decided value, receipt included. The three narrative workflows read the remembered defaults before Round 2, record the confirmed answers at the Step 0 gate, record the chosen preset at the Step 2 gate (pr-to-video excepted — its preset is fixed), and fall back to the remembered voice when the request names none. general-video's discovery reads the same defaults. Recipes wire in at both ends: Step 0 checks for a matching recipe before the mode question — one question, plural-aware, and adopting one fills the brief, skips the design step, and drafts the storyboard from the frozen skeleton while every review gate still runs. The review loop's final look (§ 4) offers the freeze once after approval, and the confirmation teaches the recall phrase — the name is something the system reminds the user of, never something they must remember. The router recognizes a named recipe or "like last time" as a route. * docs(skills): the sketch pass names check, not the deprecated validate * feat(skills): intent-layer references — process, route briefs, capability menu, BRIEF.md format * feat(media-use): brief skeleton as the recipe's fourth artifact; flow/storyboard preference keys * feat(skills): the intent layer conducts every brief — workflows execute BRIEF.md * feat(skills): retire the mode preference key; sync catalog surfaces for intent layer * refactor(skills): dedupe router vs intent-layer guidance — one owner per rule * feat(skills): the design ask — own spec, pick by eye from showcases, or defer * docs(skills): the design ask says the honest line on capture routes * feat(skills): product-launch-video absorbs website-to-video as the tour angle * refactor(skills): keep product-launch-video pristine — a tour is brief intent, not a pipeline branch * feat(skills): production loop + genre lenses; general-video goes freeform (route yours, laws hold) * refactor(skills): /hyperframes is the front door - route tables and scope lists leave the workflows * docs(skills): review-loop pass across skill catalog * fix(cli): pass project dir to openStudioBrowser in background-server path * feat(skills): add pitch-round reference - verbalized sampling concept gate * feat(skills): wire pitch round into intent layer - completeness triage + route eligibility * feat(skills): editorial capability recommendations, handoff disciplines, menu-probe split * feat(skills): pitches carry their machinery; source-only-formed requests pitch the telling * feat(skills): companion goes director - ceiling treatment plus blueprint/rule citation discipline * fix(scripts): sandbox npx-leak guard - private npm global prefix keeps npx on the branch CLI * chore(skills): resync manifest hash after formatter pass reflowed general-video tables * fix(skills): recipe freeze reads workflow from BRIEF.md; style_preset records require workflow scope Two holes found by a live companion-run freeze: the agent-supplied --workflow contradicted the run's actual workflow (recipe.json said faceless-explainer, brief-skeleton said general-video), and the style_preset lookup missed because the preference had been recorded under the bare key. - freezeRecipe resolves the workflow from BRIEF.md frontmatter; the flag is a fallback for briefless projects and a contradicting flag is ignored (noted). - recordPreference refuses a bare style_preset — the scoped key is the only writable shape; freeze tolerates legacy bare records via read fallback. - review-loop § 4 / media-use SKILL / brief-format wording follow the machinery.

Author or edit a custom HyperFrames composition when no specialized workflow fits, or when
|
|
BRIEF.md sets flow: companion. Use for longer or multi-scene pieces, brand and sizzle reels,
|
|
montages, static loops, static title cards, footage remixes, and freeform builds. Use
|

motion-graphics instead for a short unnarrated motion-first unit, including an animated title.

# General video
|
|
|
|
Before relying on this workflow, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx hyperframes skills update general-video
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A successful no-op means the skill is current. Surface an update failure instead of continuing from memory.
|
|
|
|
## 1. Apply cross-cutting source adapters
|
|
|
|
- **Media:** For any audio, image, icon, logo, voice, grade, LUT, caption, or media-operation need, load `/media-use` and follow its adoption, resolution, provider, provenance, and reuse contracts. Before the first authenticated provider action, run `npx hyperframes auth status` and relay its output verbatim. If signed out, apply the gate in `../hyperframes-core/references/brief-contract.md`: collaborative waits for sign-in or an explicit offline choice; autonomous states the status and continues through an available offline provider. Surface a blocker when no offline provider can satisfy a required capability. Local adoption alone does not require an auth gate.
|
|
- **Figma:** If any input is a `figma.com` URL, run `/figma` first. Build from its exported assets, tokens, components, or storyboard frames. Do not use raw Figma MCP calls because they skip SVG sanitization, media provenance, and brand-token binding.
|
|
|
|
These adapters do not change the workflow selected by `/hyperframes`.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Start from project state
|
|
|
|
Apply the first matching row; do not evaluate lower state rows:
|
|
|
|
| State | Action |
|
|
| ---------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| Specific edit | Make the edit, preserve existing project decisions, then rerun affected checks. Do not reopen discovery. |
|
|
| `BRIEF.md` exists | Read it. If `workflow` names another workflow and `flow` is not `companion`, hand off. Ask no brief questions. |
|
|
| No brief, but `hyperframes.json` or `STORYBOARD.md` exists | Resume from files and recorded preferences. Backfill `BRIEF.md` only from known facts. |
|
|
| Fresh creation | Run `/hyperframes` and its intent layer. Return here only for `workflow: general-video` or `flow: companion`. |
|
|
|
|
For a new project, choose a kebab-case directory name from the brief and scaffold before writing the brief:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx hyperframes init "videos/<project>" --non-interactive --example=blank
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then write `BRIEF.md` at the project root using `../hyperframes-core/references/brief-format.md`. In an existing project, the root is the directory containing `hyperframes.json`. Record only the confirmed preference-backed fields named by the brief format, using `node <MEDIA_DIR>/scripts/prefs.mjs record --hyperframes <PROJECT_ROOT>`; never record inferred defaults. Here `<MEDIA_DIR>` is the installed `/media-use` skill directory and `<PROJECT_ROOT>` is the directory containing `hyperframes.json`. If the intent layer adopted a recipe, apply it now with `node <MEDIA_DIR>/scripts/recipe.mjs use --hyperframes <PROJECT_ROOT> --name <name>` and do not ask again.
|
|
|
|
## 3. Interpret the run shape
|
|
|
|
Use only the canonical terms from `../hyperframes-core/references/brief-contract.md`:
|
|
|
|
| Field | Meaning | Effect |
|
|
| -------------- | ------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `flow` | Who drives | `automation`: choose and execute the route. `companion`: co-create in conversation. |
|
|
| `storyboard` | Whether the board is a review surface | `yes`: run plan and sketch review. `no`: build without the board. |
|
|
| derived `mode` | How checkpoint gates behave | Follow the brief contract. Never ask the user to name a mode. |
|
|
|
|
Do not invent synonyms for these states. An ongoing “just build it” signal is handled by the intent layer and arrives as `flow: automation`, `storyboard: no`.
|
|
|
|
- For `flow: automation`, choose the route and state it in one line in the first progress update.
|
|
- For a specific edit, make the edit without inventing a new route.
|
|
|
|
### Companion flow
|
|
|
|
When `flow: companion`:
|
|
|
|
- Read `BRIEF.md` and reconcile accepted `## Assets` and `## Customizations` with project artifacts. Complete accepted work that is still pending; leave completed work alone; do not offer an accepted capability again as if it were new.
|
|
- **Arrive as the director, not the contractor.** A user who chose companion chose involvement and quality; the honest response is the best version you can design, not the smallest one you can defend. The first plan is the ceiling treatment: the story arc (borrow the nearest genre lens — menu § Genre lenses), the design spec, each scene's motion treatment cited by name (§ 5's plan discipline), the transitions, the audio identity — music and sound marks, or deliberate silence — the user's material placed, and a designed open and close. Say what each layer adds in one line; flag the expensive ones (render time, sign-in, billing) as you name them. The user trims a treatment down; they should never have to assemble one approval by approval.
|
|
- **The ceiling belongs to the concept, not the toolbox.** Every layer must serve the brief's message — a treatment that would dress any video the same way is decoration. Craft rises to the ceiling; content never grows past what was asked (§ 6).
|
|
- Between checkpoints, `../hyperframes/references/capability-menu.md` works two ways. As the trigger list: offer a relevant capability when the user mentions its input or the build reaches its need. As each pass's upgrade channel: a plan, sketch, or build checkpoint may carry one or two traced offers pointed at material the user is looking at ("scene 3's stat wants the count-up treatment"). Read it before offering; never dump the full catalog.
|
|
- After the user accepts a capability, produce its artifact and record the decision in the matching `BRIEF.md` body section immediately. Rewrite a frontmatter field and record the confirmed preference only when the user explicitly changes it.
|
|
- Keep the same storyboard, validation, final-preview, and render-approval gates. Companion changes who steers, not what quality requires.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Load required knowledge before each stage
|
|
|
|
These reads are mandatory when their condition matches:
|
|
|
|
| Condition | Read before acting |
|
|
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| Any composition HTML or scene layout | `/hyperframes-core`; use `references/determinism-rules.md` for its layout contract |
|
|
| Any non-trivial creation or visual treatment | `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/house-style.md` and `references/video-composition.md` |
|
|
| Any motion, animation, or scene transition | `/hyperframes-animation`; follow its routing to the matching rules, adapters, blueprints, or transition references |
|
|
| `storyboard: yes` | `../hyperframes-core/references/storyboard-format.md` and `../hyperframes-core/references/review-loop.md` |
|
|
| Any media asset or operation, including narration, BGM, SFX, captions, grading, or transforms | `/media-use`; for framework playback and placement also read `/hyperframes-core` → `references/variables-and-media.md` |
|
|
| Multi-scene assembly | `../hyperframes-core/references/production-loop.md` |
|
|
| `flow: companion`, before the first plan | `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/story-spine.md` and `references/house-style.md`; the nearest genre lens and the full `../hyperframes/references/capability-menu.md` — the ceiling treatment is designed from these, not recalled |
|
|
| A companion capability offer, capture, beat grid, generative video, map, publishing, or cross-workflow capability | `../hyperframes/references/capability-menu.md` |
|
|
| A design spec exists, before final approval | `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/design-adherence.md` |
|
|
|
|
Do not replace these reads with recollection. Progressive disclosure saves context only when the matching reference is actually loaded.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Execute the composition
|
|
|
|
Use this dependency order. Skip a stage only when its input is absent.
|
|
|
|
1. **Plan.** State the viewer arc, structure, rhythm, and duration driver. Use one file for a short single scene; use sub-compositions for three or more hard scene cuts or any reused scene. Read `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/story-spine.md` for narrated arcs, `references/beat-direction.md` for rhythm, and `/hyperframes-core` → `references/composition-patterns.md` for structure. For an open-ended multi-scene brief, expand the prompt through `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/prompt-expansion.md`. A multi-scene plan cites each scene's shape: a blueprint id from `/hyperframes-animation` → `blueprints-index.md` when one fits, or the named rules it composes from `rules-index.md` when none does — motion names come from those indexes, never invented. Story truth decides which scenes exist; the citation dresses them.
|
|
2. **Review the plan when requested.** For `storyboard: yes`, write one `## Frame N` per scene with `status: outline` and a declared `src`, then run the shared review loop. For `storyboard: no`, continue without opening the board.
|
|
3. **Resolve dependencies.** Install registry blocks before parallel work. Stage user assets, adopt existing media, and resolve only what the brief requires. Start audio early when its timings drive duration.
|
|
4. **Build static hero layouts.** Implement every scene at its most visible moment before adding motion. The confirmed wireframe, when present, is this end state and must not be redrawn. Follow `/hyperframes-core` for the layout contract.
|
|
5. **Animate.** Build each scene from its cited blueprint or rules: read the full recipe body (`/hyperframes-animation` → `blueprints/<id>.md`, `rules/<id>.md`) before writing its motion, and keep to it. Use `/hyperframes-animation` for runtime adapters and scene transitions. Keep animation details in that owning skill rather than re-defining them here.
|
|
6. **Assemble.** Mount scenes, media, transitions, captions, and audio using the production loop. Real voice duration overrides estimates.
|
|
7. **Verify.** Use `npx hyperframes lint` for fast feedback after the first HTML pass and structural changes. For the final gate, run `npx hyperframes check`; it reruns lint internally, so do not run a redundant standalone lint immediately before it. For sub-compositions, inspect midpoint snapshots. For multi-scene work, review the animation map.
|
|
8. **Final approval.** Open the final Studio preview only after checks pass. Ask whether to render or revise. Render only after approval.
|
|
|
|
## 6. Gates that always apply
|
|
|
|
### Keep scope exact
|
|
|
|
Build what the user asked for. A title card is not a title card plus three scenes, music, and captions. Offer additions before adding them.
|
|
|
|
### Establish design before HTML
|
|
|
|
Resolve the design source in this order: `frame.md` → `design.md` → `DESIGN.md`. Treat the first file found as brand truth.
|
|
|
|
When no design spec exists, complete all four items before writing composition HTML:
|
|
|
|
1. Ground the visual identity in `house-style.md` and `video-composition.md`.
|
|
2. Write one sentence naming the concept angle for every non-trivial creation.
|
|
3. Choose an embeddable font pairing from `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/typography.md`; do not assume an unbundled display font exists in cloud rendering.
|
|
4. Define the focal element, edge anchors, supporting detail, and background treatment.
|
|
|
|
Match density to the requested format and message. Density examples are guidance for produced frames, not permission to invent claims, scenes, or a fixed number of elements.
|
|
|
|
For a named style or mood, read `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/visual-styles.md`. When the user needs to choose visually and no shipped preset fits, read `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/design-picker.md` and run the interactive design selection there.
|
|
|
|
### Preserve the composition contract
|
|
|
|
Timed elements use `class="clip"`; the root and relevant ancestors are sized; each composition registers one paused, seek-safe timeline on `window.__timelines`; rendering is deterministic. Do not use render-time network fetches, clocks, or unseeded randomness.
|
|
|
|
### Borrow workflows safely
|
|
|
|
When the piece resembles a shipped workflow, borrow its genre references as examples. First run `npx hyperframes skills update <workflow-name>`. Borrow its story shape and taste, not its private scripts, pipeline state, or directory contract. The generic build remains owned by this skill.
|
|
|
|
## 7. Done
|
|
|
|
A run is complete only when:
|
|
|
|
- requested scope is implemented;
|
|
- for `flow: companion`, the treatment is delivered, not just the scope: every scene's cited blueprint or rules realized, the audio identity present (or the silence chosen and said), the open and close designed rather than defaulted;
|
|
- `npx hyperframes check` passes, including its built-in lint stage;
|
|
- design adherence is reviewed against `/hyperframes-creative` → `references/design-adherence.md` when a design spec exists;
|
|
- contrast findings are resolved;
|
|
- sub-composition snapshots are inspected when applicable;
|
|
- an autonomous handoff includes an inspected contact or snapshot sheet; multi-scene sheets use scene midpoints;
|
|
- the handoff names the final preview or rendered artifact as applicable and reports the actual duration for a time-based deliverable;
|
|
- `hyperframes-animation/scripts/animation-map.mjs` is reviewed for multi-scene work;
|
|
- the user approves the final Studio preview before render;
|
|
- the rendered file is verified when a render was requested.
|
|
|
|
After final approval, offer once to freeze the run as a recipe, following `../hyperframes-core/references/review-loop.md` § 4.
