James f3964f3e45 fix(cli): handle port collisions in dev server with auto-increment
The embedded dev server (hyperframes dev) silently reported success even
when the requested port was already in use (e.g., by Cursor IDE on 3002).
This happened because the old isPortAvailable() probe had a TOCTOU race
and findAvailablePort() silently fell back to the original port on exhaustion.

Replace with serveWithPortFallback() that binds the real Hono server
directly via createAdaptorServer + manual listen(), retrying on EADDRINUSE.
Shows a yellow warning when auto-incrementing and a clear error when all
ports are exhausted.

Hyperframes

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
npx hyperframes dev      # preview in browser
npx hyperframes render   # render to MP4

Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg

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.
