@hanzo/frame is taken by the hero video primitive — one full-bleed video
element — which has held that name on npm since it shipped. This repo is the
video toolchain: a CLI, a renderer, a studio, a player. Plural is what it is,
so the CLI publishes as @hanzo/frames and the workspace packages follow it
(@hanzo/frames-core, @hanzo/frames-engine, and the rest).
The binary stays `frames`, and now actually ships. The manifest mapped it to
bin/frames.mjs while the file on disk was bin/hyperframes.mjs, so a global
install produced no working command.
The paths that name a package to fetch were pointing elsewhere. The update
check read registry.npmjs.org/frames, a different author's package, and the
npm, bun and pnpm installers would have pulled it over the CLI; the render
image installed the upstream hyperframes; scaffolded projects and the docs
pinned the unscoped name. All of them now name @hanzo/frames.
The workflow skills, the CLI reference, and the guides described a vendor's
services: a separate account to sign into, a credential file beside the
project, a music library and asset search that are not ours, and preview
media on a CDN we do not run.
Auth is now one Hanzo IAM token in $HANZO_API_KEY, read from Hanzo KMS —
one credential for voice, music, sound effects, images, video, the shared
catalog, and cloud rendering. The credential guide, the cloud-render
pages, and the CLI auth reference all say the same thing, because there
is now only one thing to say.
Docs previews resolve from the docs site's own /images/ path, produced by
our own generator. They are not committed (docs/images/ is ignored), so a
deploy must run `bun run generate:catalog-previews` first — the same gap
as before, minus a CDN we cannot publish to. Element grounding calls
zen-vl through api.hanzo.ai rather than a third-party vision endpoint,
and the LUT library builds every look from params, so no look needs a
host at all.
Command examples read `npx @hanzo/frame` / `hanzo frame` throughout.
Three navigation entries left dangling by the rebrand now resolve.
The changelog and the weekly archive keep their entries as written and
say plainly that pre-port entries describe the upstream product.
Forked from HyperFrames (Apache-2.0), full history preserved.
Hosts are mapped explicitly and BEFORE the identifier rename, because
hyperframes.heygen.com is not decoration: 175 of its occurrences are $schema
identifiers that a validator dereferences. A blind rename would have left them
naming a host that never serves them. The schema files are in this repo under
docs/schema, so the mapped host is one we can actually serve -- that is the
condition that makes the rewrite safe, and serving them is a deploy task, not
an edit. docs/schema/hyperframes.json is renamed to frames.json to match the
identifier it is now published under.
api.heygen.com and the CLI auth against heygen.com are left UNRENAMED on
purpose. They are a dependency on HeyGen's SaaS, not a name of ours to take,
and the right move is to remove that integration rather than rebrand it.
LICENSE and CREDITS.md are untouched; NOTICE records the lineage.

* feat(gsap): add innerText support to GSAP inspector for counter animations (#1244)
Adds 'innerText' as a supported GSAP property so number roll-up animations
(count-up from 0 to some value) are visible and editable in the GSAP inspector
panel.
- Add 'innerText' to SUPPORTED_PROPS in gsapConstants.ts
- Add label 'Counter Value', tooltip, and step constraint (1) in
gsapAnimationConstants.ts
The snap modifier that controls integer rounding is already preserved
verbatim via the EXTRAS_KEYS round-trip, so rounding behavior survives
edits without any additional UI changes.
Closes#1179
* feat(registry): add text-effects catalog section and morph-text component
Introduces a new "Text Effects" catalog section (below Effects) for text-focused visual components.
- Add `text-effects` BlockCategory to core registry types with violet color
- Add `text-effect` tag resolver in resolveBlockCategory (checked before generic `effect` tag)
- Tag caption-blend-difference, texture-mask-text, and morph-text with `text-effect`
- Update studio catalog order and color map to include text-effects
- Add morph-text component: gooey SVG threshold morph cycling through editable statements
using GSAP seekable proxy pattern for deterministic/seekable rendering
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
* chore(registry): add morph-text preview video
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
* chore(registry): fix morph-text.html formatting
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
* docs(catalog): add Text Effects section and morph-text page
Moves caption-blend-difference and texture-mask-text out of Effects into a new
"Text Effects" section below it. Adds morph-text component page with install
instructions and preview video.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
* chore(registry): add demo.html for morph-text catalog preview rendering
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
* fix(registry): address PR review feedback on morph-text and text-effects
- Restore `effect` tag on caption-blend-difference and texture-mask-text
alongside `text-effect` so existing tag-equality searches/analytics still match
- Fix morphPause script fallback from "0.25" to "1.5" to match data attribute default
- Add Math.max(0, ...) guard to blur values (intent clarity)
- Add prefers-reduced-motion: skip morph and show first word statically
- Remove CATEGORY_ORDER record from useBlockCatalog; derive order from
BLOCK_CATEGORIES array (single source of truth, no drift)
- Add comment to demo.html documenting its purpose (catalog preview script only)

Two companion components inspired by the eBay Playbook hero transition:
- parallax-zoom: center card scales up to fill the frame while siblings
parallax outward. Single CSS variable (--pz-progress 0→1), fully
seekable and deterministic.
- parallax-unzoom: the reverse — focus card starts at full-frame scale
and shrinks back into its grid position while siblings parallax inward.
Uses --pu-progress with the pu prefix to avoid variable collisions when
both components live in the same composition.
Designed to chain: zoom INTO a card in scene 1, unzoom OUT of it in
scene 2 to reveal a fresh grid underneath.
Includes demo compositions, registry manifests, and catalog pages.
Preview assets rendered and uploaded to CDN.

Upload re-rendered videos with -v2 filenames to bypass CloudFront
immutable cache. Replace gradient-fill with improved version from
sandbox composition.
- clip-wipe: slower reveal (0.3s), longer hold, smoother exit
- glitch-rgb: 2.5x larger RGB split, stronger scanlines, more dramatic jitter
- gradient-fill: smoother word transitions (0.15s), longer exit
- typewriter: extended group hold times so text lingers on screen
- weight-shift: per-word font-weight animation (200→900), was broken
with only line-level shift that never triggered on single-line groups
- Add caption-highlight: red background sweep behind active word (TikTok-style)
- Re-rendered and uploaded preview videos for all 6 components
- Fix timeline_id_mismatch on all 15 caption components: __timelines key
now matches data-composition-id (e.g. "caption-clip-wipe" not "clip-wipe")
- Regenerate docs/public/catalog-index.json with 15 new caption entries
- Add "Captions" group mapping to generate-catalog-pages.ts (priority 0)
- Regenerate docs.json nav and mdx pages via the catalog script
- Upload docs preview videos to docs/images CDN path
- Add 15 .mdx doc pages under docs/catalog/components/ for all caption styles
- Add "Captions" group as first section in the Catalog tab navigation
- Add canvas-based fitFontSize to 14 caption components to prevent text overflow
- Fix parallax-layers vertical clipping by repositioning the behind safe zone
- Re-render all 15 preview videos at high quality and upload to CDN
Pure-CSS radial darkening overlay that fills its positioned parent and
pulls focus toward the center. Shape, size, and color are exposed as
CSS custom properties (--vignette-shape, --vignette-size,
--vignette-edge, --vignette-color), so a GSAP timeline can animate any
of them — the snippet's header comment shows the pattern for fading
the vignette in.
The Components section currently has four entries; this fills the
cinematic-cinematography gap a video editor expects out of the box
without bundling any asset (the effect is a single radial-gradient).
Default z-index 90 sits below grain-overlay (100) so grain reads on
top of the darkened corners.
Catalog page, registry index, and nav are regenerated via
scripts/generate-catalog-pages.ts.
Move all preview mp4/png/gif assets under docs/images/ out of the repo
and serve them from https://static.heygen.ai/hyperframes-oss/docs/images/
(backed by s3://heygen-public/hyperframes-oss/docs/images/, CloudFront).
Drops ~49MB from the working tree and, more importantly, ~49MB from every
future Mintlify build checkout. Combined with the (already-LFS-tracked)
producer snapshots, the remaining bloat in 'npx skills add heygen-com/
hyperframes' (see #300) is LFS smudge during clone — separate fix needed
in the skills CLI to pass GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1.
Changes:
- Delete docs/images/** (103 files, ~49MB). Files are uploaded to S3 already.
- Rewrite /images/* references in 44 MDX files, TemplateCard.jsx, and
catalog-index.json to absolute CDN URLs.
- Update README.md img src to CDN URL (renders correctly on GitHub).
- Add docs/images/ to .gitignore so regenerated previews aren't committed.
- Add scripts/upload-docs-images.sh to sync docs/images/ → S3 after running
the preview generators.
- Wire up bun run upload:docs-images and bun run generate:catalog-previews
scripts in package.json.
- Update generator script docstrings to point at the upload step.
External contributors can still regenerate previews locally (mintlify dev
reads the CDN URLs, so broken previews appear only for newly added items
pending a maintainer upload). Maintainers run:
bun run generate:catalog-previews --only <name>
bun run upload:docs-images

## What
Add 28 transition blocks from the Hyperframe Template Structure catalog, bringing the registry to 53 total items.
### Shader transitions (14 blocks, WebGL, 4s each)
`domain-warp-dissolve`, `ridged-burn`, `whip-pan`, `sdf-iris`, `ripple-waves`, `gravitational-lens`, `cinematic-zoom`, `chromatic-radial-split`, `glitch`, `swirl-vortex`, `thermal-distortion`, `flash-through-white`, `cross-warp-morph`, `light-leak`
### CSS transition showcases (14 blocks, various durations)
`transitions-3d`, `transitions-blur`, `transitions-cover`, `transitions-destruction`, `transitions-dissolve`, `transitions-distortion`, `transitions-grid`, `transitions-light`, `transitions-mechanical`, `transitions-other`, `transitions-push`, `transitions-radial`, `transitions-scale`, `transitions-shader`
## Why
Phase D content accumulation. Transitions are the most-requested category for the catalog.
## How
- Shader transitions extracted from `shader-showcase.zip`, each a standalone HTML with WebGL shaders
- CSS transitions extracted from `showcase-bundle.zip`, each a standalone showcase page
- All tagged with `transition` + `shader` or `showcase` for catalog grouping
- Preview thumbnails generated for all 28 blocks
- Catalog pages + index regenerated
## Test plan
- [x] All 28 blocks produce preview thumbnails
- [x] `registry-item.json` validates for all blocks
- [x] Catalog pages generated (45 total items in catalog-index.json)
- [x] `oxfmt --check` passes
## What
New skill `hyperframes-registry` that teaches AI coding agents how to install and wire registry blocks and components into HyperFrames compositions.
### Skill structure
```
skills/hyperframes-registry/
SKILL.md — triggers, overview, quick reference
references/
install-locations.md — default paths, hyperframes.json config
wiring-blocks.md — iframe inclusion, data attributes, positioning
wiring-components.md — snippet merging (HTML, CSS, JS, timeline)
discovery.md — manifest reading, item fields, available items table
demo-html-pattern.md — why components ship demo.html, structure conventions
examples/
add-block.md — worked example: data-chart block install + wiring
add-component.md — worked example: shimmer-sweep component install + wiring
```
## Why
Phase B of the catalog plan (PR 10). Without this skill, agents using `hyperframes add` have to guess how to wire installed items into compositions. The skill encodes the iframe/snippet patterns so agents get it right on the first attempt.
## How
- SKILL.md frontmatter triggers on: `hyperframes add`, "block", "component", `hyperframes.json`
- References cover every step: discovery, install, wiring blocks (iframe), wiring components (snippet merge), and the demo.html convention
- Two worked examples walk through complete install-to-preview workflows
- Updated CLAUDE.md skills table + trigger rules, README.md skills table, docs/packages/cli.mdx
## Test plan
- [x] `scripts/lint-skills.ts` passes (checked 4 skill files, no issues)
- [x] `oxfmt --check` passes on all markdown files
- [x] SKILL.md frontmatter has valid `name` and `description`
- [x] All reference links in SKILL.md resolve to existing files
- [x] CLAUDE.md, README.md, and docs CLI page updated with new skill
