hyperframes

Add captions to a talking-head video. ONE catalog (CATALOG.md) of 32 visual identities behind two engines: column-flow (captions composited INTO the scene — matte occlusion + mix-blend; cream/ink/editorial/keynote/documentary/loud/neon/glitch/chrome/velocity) and themed constitutions (anchor/ordnance/terminal/neonsign/stardust/stomp/scoreboard/transit/vhs/arcade/dossier/laser/thunder/hologram/biolume/aurora/spectrum/papercut/popup/chalkboard/graffiti/brush/inkwater/ransom/lastpage/nightcity — e.g. a glyph-decode climax, a neon sign WRITTEN stroke by stroke, or the quiet `anchor` rail default). Route by identity, never by mode. Trigger on "captions/subtitles", "embed/cinematic captions", "VFX captions", "炸/特效/酷炫字幕", a named identity, or top-tier motion-graphics asks. Embedding every word is wrong for most talking-head content — `anchor` is the verbatim default. Pipeline: transcription → hyperframes remove-background matting → HTML render → ffmpeg overlay. Requires hyperframes and a single-subject clip.

turn arbitrary text — an article, notes, a topic, a brief — into a faceless explainer video, up to ~3 min (sweet spot 30-90s), where every visual is invented (typography, abstract graphics, diagrams, data-viz) rather than captured. There is no URL, no website capture, and no real assets. Use this skill for topic explainers, concept breakdowns, how-tos, listicles, and narrative explainers. Do not use it for a product launch/promo (use /product-launch-video), a tour of a real website (use /website-to-video), a GitHub PR (use /pr-to-video), captions on existing footage (use /embedded-captions), or a short unnarrated motion graphic (use /motion-graphics). If the intent is unclear, route through /hyperframes first.

The fallback workflow for authoring custom HyperFrames video compositions at any length or format — longer or multi-scene pieces, brand / sizzle reels, montages, title cards, static loops, and freeform compositions. Input- and length-agnostic. If a specialized workflow clearly fits the input — a marketed product, a website, a topic explainer, a GitHub PR, existing footage, a short motion graphic, or a Remotion port — prefer it (see /hyperframes); use this only as the general fallback when none fit.

Package an existing talking-head / interview / podcast video by layering timed, designed GRAPHIC OVERLAY cards onto the playing video — titles, lower-thirds, data callouts, quotes, side panels, picture-in-picture — synced to the transcript. The source video plays in full; the agent designs and writes each card's HTML in conversation, then renders to MP4 via hyperframes. Use when the user asks for graphic overlays, on-screen graphics / lower-thirds / data callouts / kinetic titles on a video, "package / dress up my video", "add overlay cards / graphic cards", or AI-composed graphic packaging of an existing video. NOT for plain subtitles (→ embedded-captions) or building a video from scratch (→ the creation workflows); when unsure overlays-vs-captions, see /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). HyperFrames-native: single paused timeline, seek-safe, deterministic.
