"description": "The HyperFrames composition contract — build one renderable project. Use for composition structure, the `data-*` timing attributes, `class=\"clip\"`, tracks, sub-compositions, variables, framework-owned media playback, deterministic-render rules, and validation. Read before writing composition HTML."

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, hyperframes-media, 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'sdata-composition-idmust exactly equal the inner template'sdata-composition-idand thewindow.__timelines["<id>"]key — no-mount/-slot/-hostsuffix.
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. lint/validate/inspect do not catch this. 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/.
Non-negotiable rules (silent bugs lint/validate/inspect won't catch)
Surfaced here; full rationale in the linked reference. Do not violate:
- No render-time clocks / unseeded
Math.random/ network / input-state; norepeat: -1(use a finite count). →determinism-rules.md - Animate only the visual-property allowlist; never
display/visibility; nogsap.seton later-scene clips. →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>must be a direct child of the host root (never inside a sub-comp<template>/wrapper); the framework owns playback. →variables-and-media.md- Every
idmust 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 bygetElementById, and cross-file dupes slip pastlint. →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 ownbackground(the frame renders black) even though preview/snapshotshow 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-indexor adjust surrounding timing intentionally. - Adding a sub-composition: verify its internal
data-composition-idbefore wiring the host.
Validation
Use hyperframes-cli for command details
-
npx hyperframes lintpasses (0 errors) -
npx hyperframes validatepasses (0 console errors) -
npx hyperframes inspectpasses (0 errors) - Projects with sub-compositions:
npx hyperframes snapshot --at <midpoints>and eyeball each frame -
npx hyperframes previewfor review (the user can edit anything in Studio's timeline) -
npx hyperframes renderonly after the user approves
