hyperframes-creative
Non-animation creative direction for HyperFrames videos. Use for design spec (frame.md / design.md) handling, palettes, typography, narration, beat planning, audio-reactive visuals, composition patterns, and brand / style decisions. For atomic motion patterns and scene blueprints, use hyperframes-animation.

Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes --skill hyperframes-creative- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads hyperframes-creative automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
Security audits
Independent scans of the skill's instructions and bundled files.

HyperFrames Creative
Brand, pacing, style, narration, and composition direction. Use after the technical contract from hyperframes-core is in place.
For motion patterns, scene blueprints, transitions, and CSS marker effects, use hyperframes-animation — this skill is intentionally non-animation.
Read these two FIRST for any non-trivial composition — they override web instincts:
references/house-style.md— "interpret the prompt, generate real content," the lazy-default list, and the background/foreground layer recipe. This is what turns a literal restyle into a concept.references/video-composition.md— video-medium scale, depth, and foreground detail. It explains how to avoid empty web-page layouts without imposing a universal element count.Skipping these is the single biggest cause of generic, web-page-looking output. They are not optional rows in the routing table below — for anything beyond a one-line edit, open both before you choose colors or write HTML.
Workflow
- If a project has a design spec, read it first and treat its frontmatter tokens as brand truth (colors, fonts, spacing, tone, constraints). Which file to read (precedence
frame.md→design.md→DESIGN.md) and how to parse it (frontmatter = normative, prose = context) are defined once inreferences/design-spec.md— resolve and load per that doc. - If no design spec exists and the user asks for visual direction, choose a route:
- Ready-made frame-preset (optional) →
frame-presets/(adopt aFRAME.mdasframe.md; seereferences/design-spec.md) - Named style or mood →
references/visual-styles.md - Fast defaults →
references/house-style.md - Interactive selection →
references/design-picker.md
- Ready-made frame-preset (optional) →
- For multi-scene work, plan beats and rhythm before writing HTML →
references/beat-direction.md. For scene transitions, jump tohyperframes-animation/transitions/. - For motion-heavy work, read
references/motion-principles.md(high-level guardrails), then go tohyperframes-animationfor atomic rules.
Routing
| Topic | Read |
|---|---|
Adopt a ready-made frame-preset as frame.md (optional) | frame-presets/ · references/design-spec.md |
| Default palettes, motion, typography, lazy defaults to question | references/house-style.md |
| Named style presets, mood-to-style routing | references/visual-styles.md |
| Palette-specific color tokens | palettes/*.md |
| Composition patterns — PiP, text-behind-subject, title card, slide show | references/composition-patterns.md |
| Stats / infographic presentation | references/data-in-motion.md |
| Structured expansion for open-ended prompts | references/prompt-expansion.md |
| Video-medium density, scale, color, frame composition | references/video-composition.md |
| Per-beat direction, rhythm planning, transition timing | references/beat-direction.md |
| Post-authoring spec verification (colors, type, corners, spacing, depth) | references/design-adherence.md |
| High-level motion guardrails and GSAP-quality rules | references/motion-principles.md |
| Font selection, pairings, rendered-video type guardrails | references/typography.md |
| Story doctrine — hook language, value-before-evidence, storyboard-as-proposal, source-traceable visuals | references/story-spine.md |
| Script pacing, tone, openings, number pronunciation | references/narration.md |
| Precomputed audio bands mapped to motion | references/audio-reactive.md |
Scripts
scripts/contrast-report.mjs— inspect contrast warnings from rendered frames.scripts/extract-audio-data.py— pre-extract audio bands for audio-reactive compositions.scripts/package-loader.mjs— support script for bundled creative tooling.
contrast-report.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.
Run with explicit paths, for example:
python <SKILL_DIR>/scripts/extract-audio-data.py <audio-file>
Animation analysis (animation-map.mjs) lives in hyperframes-animation/scripts/.
Boundaries
- Do not override
hyperframes-coretechnical rules. - Do not require a design system for a minimal technical composition.
- Do not add extra scenes, narration, music, captions, or transitions unless the request calls for them or you first propose the expansion.
- Keep recipe references task-specific; do not read every reference for simple edits.

About 450 ready-made HyperFrames blocks and components installed as editable source - transitions, overlays, titles, kinetic type, captions, charts, map overlays, 3D, camera moves. Use it before hand-building any named visual (CRT scanlines, glitch, film grain, a chart); also for hyperframes add and catalog.
hyperframes-animation
heygen-com/hyperframes
All animation knowledge for HyperFrames — atomic motion rules, multi-phase scene blueprints, scene transitions, broader motion-design techniques, AND the seven runtime adapters (GSAP default, plus Lottie, Three.js, Anime.js, CSS keyframes, Web Animations API, TypeGPU). Use for any motion or animation task: pick 2-4 rules and compose, or load a blueprint, or look up runtime-specific API (e.g. GSAP eases / Lottie player / Three.js mixer). Also covers auditing an existing composition's choreography (animation map) and 24 named text-animation effects. HyperFrames-native: single paused timeline, seek-safe, deterministic.
hyperframes-core
heygen-com/hyperframes
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.
