HyperFrames Core

HyperFrames renders video from HTML. A composition is an HTML file whose DOM declares timing with data-* attributes, whose animation runtime is seekable, and whose media playback is owned by the framework.

This skill is the technical contract — how to build one hyperframes project. The body below is the build guide; per-topic detail lives in references/ (index next), read on demand. Other concerns live in the sibling domain skills — hyperframes-animation, hyperframes-creative, media-use, hyperframes-cli, hyperframes-registry. The capability map in /hyperframes says what each one covers.

Building a composition

Two root forms (not interchangeable)

  • Standalone (top-level index.html) — root <div data-composition-id="…"> sits directly in <body>, no <template> wrapper (wrapping it hides all content and breaks rendering).
  • Sub-composition (loaded via data-composition-src) — root must be wrapped in <template>.

⚠ Transport rule: the runtime only clones <template> contents; everything outside (incl. <head> styles/scripts) is discarded — put <style>/<script> inside the template. ⚠ Host-id rule: the host slot's data-composition-id must exactly equal the inner template's data-composition-id and the window.__timelines["<id>"] key — no -mount/-slot/-host suffix.

File shape, host wiring, and the pre-render checklist → references/sub-compositions.md.

Root must be sized (silent layout bug)

The standalone root needs an explicit sized box (width/height in px), and every ancestor down to a height:100% element must have a resolved height — otherwise a flex/100% child collapses to ~0 and content piles into the top-left corner. Do not rely on automated gates alone to catch this; inspect a snapshot. Skeleton → references/minimal-composition.md.

One paused timeline

Each composition registers exactly one gsap.timeline({ paused: true }) at window.__timelines["<id>"] (key = root data-composition-id), built synchronously at page load. Render duration = root data-duration, not timeline length. Don't manually nest sub-timelines into the host. Full contract (incl. non-GSAP runtimes) → references/determinism-rules.md + hyperframes-animation/adapters/.

First-pass lint gotchas (a guaranteed first build failure)

Two rules that lint does catch, but only after the fact — write them right the first time:

  • The root composition element must carry data-start="0" (alongside data-composition-id/data-width/data-height); omitting it fails lint with root_composition_missing_data_start.
  • Never pair a CSS initial transform with a GSAP tween on the same property — the CSS value and the tween's start fight and lint rejects it with gsap_css_transform_conflict. Set the initial state inside the tween with gsap.fromTo(el, { x: -40 }, { x: 0 }) instead of a CSS transform: translateX(-40px).

Non-negotiable rules (silent bugs automated gates may miss)

Surfaced here; full rationale in the linked reference. Do not violate:

  • No render-time clocks / unseeded Math.random / network / input-state; no repeat: -1 (use a finite count). → determinism-rules.md
  • Animate only the visual-property allowlist; never tween display or raw visibility. GSAP autoAlpha and zero-duration timeline boundary sets are the only visibility exceptions, and only on non-clip elements or wrappers inside a clip. The framework alone controls .clip visibility. Do not gsap.set later-scene clips at page load. → determinism-rules.md
  • No <br> in body text; transformed elements must be block-level + sized; pulsing absolute decoratives need peak clearance. → determinism-rules.md
  • <video>/<audio> work at any nesting depth (including inside a sub-comp <template> or wrapper); the framework owns playback and seeks/decodes media wherever it lives. The one caveat is timelines, not placement: a sub-comp timeline can't animate host-root elements. → variables-and-media.md
  • Every id must be unique across the assembled page; inside a sub-comp, prefix ids with the composition id (#<id>-hero). Duplicate <video>/<img> ids render blank — the producer injects frames by getElementById, and cross-file dupes slip past lint. → composition-patterns.md
  • A full-screen scene fill goes on a full-bleed child (position:absolute; inset:0), never on the composition root itself — the producer's frame compositing can drop the root element's own background (the frame renders black) even though preview/snapshot show it correctly. → composition-patterns.md

Editing existing compositions

  • Read the files first. Preserve unrelated timing, tracks, IDs, variables, media paths.
  • Match existing composition IDs and timeline keys.
  • Adding a clip: pick a non-overlapping data-track-index or adjust surrounding timing intentionally.
  • data-hidden on any composition element hides it in BOTH preview and render, overriding its time window; it is non-destructive/reversible and toggled by Studio's timeline eye icon.
  • Adding a sub-composition: verify its internal data-composition-id before wiring the host.

Validation

Use hyperframes-cli for command details

  • npx hyperframes check passes (0 findings across lint, runtime, layout, motion, and contrast)
  • Projects with sub-compositions: npx hyperframes snapshot --at <midpoints> and eyeball each frame
  • npx hyperframes preview for review (the user can edit anything in Studio's timeline)
  • npx hyperframes render only after the user approves
