816ae4cb9b feat(core): add registry schema + TS types (#252)
* feat(core): add registry schema + TS types

PR 1/17 of the catalog system rollout. Foundation for a shadcn-style
registry with three item tiers: examples (full projects), blocks
(sub-compositions), components (effect snippets).

## What

- TS types: RegistryItem (discriminated union of ExampleItem/BlockItem/
  ComponentItem), RegistryManifest, FileTarget, ItemType, FileType
- JSON Schemas: schemas/registry.json, schemas/registry-item.json
- Compile-time exhaustiveness asserts on ITEM_TYPES/FILE_TYPES so adding
  to the TS union without updating the constant stops compiling
- Drift-guard test: schema enums must equal ITEM_TYPES/FILE_TYPES by
  set-equality; exactly 2 distinct type enums in registry-item.json
- Public API via new ./registry export path plus re-exports from root;
  schemas exposed via ./schemas/registry.json export for external tooling

## Why

- Every downstream PR (resolver, installer, hyperframes add, docs
  codegen, CI previews, skill, catalog command) builds on these types
- Getting the shape right now avoids painful migrations later

## How

- Discriminated union enforces that components do not have dimensions
  or duration and examples/blocks must have them (schema mirrors via
  if/then/else on the type discriminant)
- target path pattern rejects .. segments, Unix absolute paths, and
  Windows drive letters (defense-in-depth; CLI validates at runtime in
  PR 3)
- name pattern requires alphanumeric start and end (no trailing hyphens)
- Optional metadata: version, author, license, deprecated, minCliVersion
- additionalProperties: false on nested objects (catches typos on
  critical fields) but relaxed on top-level RegistryItem (allows
  third-party custom metadata in PR 15 custom registries)

## Test plan

- [x] Unit tests: 11 new tests covering type guards, discriminant
      narrowing, schema/TS drift guards, schema \$id sanity, optional
      metadata acceptance, and compile-time checks (via @ts-expect-error)
- [x] bun run test in packages/core: 445 passed (was 434 on main,
      +11 from this PR)
- [x] bunx oxfmt and bunx oxlint: clean
- [x] bun run typecheck: clean
- [ ] Manual testing: N/A (types + schemas only)
- [ ] Documentation updated: per-item doc pages land in PR 9 (codegen
      from these manifests); guide updates in PR 10+

## Breaking / migration

None. Pure additive — new module, new export paths, no existing
surface touched.

* fix(core): remove version field + hyperframes:demo file type

Address review feedback from Miguel:

- Remove `version` from RegistryItemBase + schema. Per shadcn model,
  the registry is versioned by git tags, not per-item. The adversarial
  review added it; the original design doc was correct.
- Remove `hyperframes:demo` from FileType union + FILE_TYPES constant
  + schema. Demo files exist on disk for the CI preview pipeline but
  are NOT installed to user projects and should not appear in
  registry-item.json files[]. Neither shadcn nor Remotion has a
  dedicated demo file type — demos are just compositions.
- Add `required: ["type"]` to the if-condition in the schema's
  allOf discriminant (Miguel's nit — makes the condition self-
  contained)

* fix(ci): add shader-transitions to Dockerfile.test

PR #251 added packages/shader-transitions/ to the workspace but didn't
update Dockerfile.test to COPY its package.json. This caused
`bun install --frozen-lockfile` to fail in the regression Docker build:
bun saw a lockfile referencing @hyperframes/shader-transitions but the
package.json wasn't present in the container, so it wanted to remove
the entry — triggering "lockfile had changes."

Verified: Docker build passes with `--no-cache` after this fix.

Hyperframes

npm version License Node.js

Write HTML. Render video. Built for agents.

Hyperframes is an open-source video rendering framework that lets you create, preview, and render HTML-based video compositions — with first-class support for AI agents via MCP.

Why Hyperframes?

  • HTML-native — AI agents already speak HTML. No React required.
  • Frame Adapter pattern — bring your own animation runtime (GSAP, Lottie, CSS, Three.js).
  • Deterministic rendering — same input = identical output. Built for automated pipelines.
  • AI-first design — not a bolted-on afterthought.

Quick Start

npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video

Then open the project with your AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) — it has HyperFrames skills installed and knows how to create and edit compositions.

npx hyperframes preview      # preview in browser (live reload)
npx hyperframes render   # render to MP4

Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg

Documentation

Full documentation at hyperframes.heygen.com — start with the Quickstart, then explore guides, concepts, API reference, and package docs.

How It Works

Define your video as HTML with data attributes:

<div id="stage" data-composition-id="my-video" data-start="0" data-width="1920" data-height="1080">
  <video
    id="clip-1"
    data-start="0"
    data-duration="5"
    data-track="0"
    src="intro.mp4"
    muted
    playsinline
  ></video>
  <img id="overlay" data-start="2" data-duration="3" data-track="1" src="logo.png" />
  <audio
    id="bg-music"
    data-start="0"
    data-duration="9"
    data-track="2"
    data-volume="0.5"
    src="music.wav"
  ></audio>
</div>

Preview instantly in the browser. Render to MP4 locally. Let AI agents compose videos using tools they already understand.

Packages

AI Agent Skills

HyperFrames ships skills that teach AI coding agents (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Cursor) how to write correct compositions and GSAP animations. Use these instead of writing from scratch — they encode framework-specific patterns that generic docs don't cover.

# Install all skills (HyperFrames + GSAP) — runs automatically during `hyperframes init`
npx hyperframes skills

# Or install to a specific agent
npx hyperframes skills --claude
npx hyperframes skills --cursor

Or via npx skills add

# HyperFrames skills (hyperframes-compose, hyperframes-captions)
npx skills add heygen-com/hyperframes

# GSAP skills (gsap-core, gsap-timeline, gsap-scrolltrigger, gsap-plugins, gsap-performance, gsap-utils, gsap-react, gsap-frameworks)
npx skills add greensock/gsap-skills
