hyperframes-animation
HyperFrames的所有动画知识——原子运动规则、多阶段场景蓝图、场景过渡、更广泛的动态设计技术，以及七种运行时适配器（默认GSAP，外加Lottie、Three.js、Anime.js、CSS关键帧、Web Animations API、TypeGPU）。适用于任何运动或动画任务：选取2-4条规则进行组合，或加载蓝图，或查询特定运行时的API（例如GSAP缓动函数/Lottie播放器/Three.js混合器）。HyperFrames原生特性：单一暂停时间线，安全跳帧，...

All motion knowledge in one skill: rules (atomic recipes), blueprints (multi-phase scene templates), transitions (scene-to-scene), techniques (broader motion-design patterns), and adapters (per-runtime APIs).
For the composition contract (data attributes, sub-compositions, determinism) see hyperframes-core.
Default: compose atomic rules
Pick 2-4 rules from rules-index.md, glue them together with a single paused GSAP timeline, done. This is faster and produces less code than starting from a blueprint.
Load a blueprint when
- The scene matches an existing pre-designed multi-phase template (brand-reveal, social-proof, etc.) and reusing its phase pipeline saves real authoring time
- You want runnable ground-truth code for a complex 4-5 phase choreography
Blueprints live in blueprints-index.md. Each entry points to blueprints/<id>.md (recipe). Do not read it speculatively; load it when you've already decided you need scene-level orchestration.

Picking a runtime
- GSAP is the default for 95% of motion work — covers timeline orchestration, transforms, easing, stagger. All atomic rules in this skill are GSAP-based.
- Lottie when an asset has its own pre-baked timeline (typically After Effects exports).
- Three.js for 3D scenes, camera motion, shader-driven visuals.
- Anime.js for lightweight tweening when GSAP is overkill.
- CSS for simple repeated motifs, decoration, shimmer — no JavaScript animation cost.
- WAAPI for native browser keyframes without a GSAP dependency.
- TypeGPU / WebGPU for GPU-rendered canvases (particles, liquid glass, custom shaders).
Multiple runtimes can coexist in one composition. Each registers its instances on the runtime-specific global so HyperFrames can seek all of them in one pass.
Critical Constraints
Prerequisite: hyperframes-core → Non-Negotiable Rules (single paused timeline, data-duration governs length, no Math.random / Date.now / performance.now, no repeat: -1, no page-load gsap.set on later-scene clips, no display or raw visibility tweens, and no timeline construction inside async / setTimeout / Promise). GSAP autoAlpha and zero-duration visibility sets at explicit timeline boundaries remain allowed by core. Use those exceptions only on non-clip elements or wrappers inside a clip; the framework owns .clip lifecycle. Don't restate the full contract here.
Animation-craft additions on top of core's contract:
- Pre-calculated layout constants — never derive positions from
getBoundingClientRect()at tween time. Tween-time DOM measurements desync because the renderer samples in parallel; compute coordinates once at composition setup and reuse. - Spatial motion uses GSAP transform aliases only (
x,y,scale,rotation). Core's allowlist also permitsopacity/color/backgroundColor/borderRadiusfor non-spatial property tweens — but neverwidth/height/top/leftfor layout changes.
Scripts
node skills/hyperframes-animation/scripts/animation-map.mjs <composition-dir> \
--out <composition-dir>/.hyperframes/anim-map
Reads every GSAP timeline registered on window.__timelines, enumerates tweens, samples bboxes, computes flags, outputs animation-map.json. Use it to audit choreography (dead zones, stagger consistency, lifecycle warnings) after authoring.
animation-map.mjs resolves helper packages from the current project first, then can bootstrap the bundled HyperFrames package version. Set HYPERFRAMES_SKILL_PKG_VERSION=<version> only when running the skill outside the bundled CLI/skill install and you need to pin that bootstrap version explicitly.
