Vance Ingalls c89611f75f refactor(vst): split oversized files and dedupe CLI/engine code to clear fallow gate
Splits propertyPanelVstSection.tsx (816->429 lines) into
propertyPanelVstShared.ts, propertyPanelVstCarveSection.tsx, and
propertyPanelVstPluginRows.tsx; useVstHost.ts (673->356 lines) into
vstHostWire.ts (protocol parsing, pending-request bookkeeping, socket
connect sequence); useVstPreview.ts (806->397 lines) into
useVstPreviewHelpers.ts (load-scan orchestration, track lifecycle,
PCM decode). Decomposes timelineIframeHelpers.ts's flagged
autoHealMissingCompositionIds and buildMissingCompositionElements.
Dedupes parseIntFlag/parsePositiveInt/parseEnum and the sites-create
verb guard shared by lambda.ts/cloudrun.ts into
utils/distributedRenderFlags.ts, and the ffmpeg-timeout/output-dir/
result-building boilerplate shared by audioMixer.ts's extract/prepare/
silence helpers. Extracts shared test-render boilerplate (testRenderUtils.tsx)
across the propertyPanelFlat*.test.tsx family and per-file test fixtures
(vstSidecarTestFixture.ts, vstSocketTestFixture.ts) elsewhere.

Also fixes two 600-line filesize-gate regressions introduced while
reconciling this work against an updated origin/main: extracts
removeBackgroundViaApi out of StudioRightPanel.tsx, and drops a dead
re-export block from PropertyPanel.tsx (its only consumer already had
the real source available directly).

All of the above is pure extraction/dedup — no behavior change. Verified:
fallow audit passes clean (0 introduced complexity/duplication/dead-code
findings), full monorepo build succeeds, and the full test suite passes
across studio/engine/cli/vst-host.

hyperframes

CLI for creating, previewing, and rendering HTML video compositions.

Install

npm install -g hyperframes

Or use directly with npx:

npx hyperframes <command>

Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg

Commands

init

Scaffold a new Hyperframes project from a template:

npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video

preview

Start the live preview studio in your browser:

npx hyperframes preview
# Studio running at http://localhost:3002

npx hyperframes preview --port 4567

render

Render a composition to MP4. Run from the project directory; the positional argument is the project directory (not a file), so render the project's index.html directly, or point at a specific composition file with -c:

npx hyperframes render -o output.mp4
npx hyperframes render -c ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4

lint

Validate your Hyperframes HTML:

npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --json      # JSON output for CI/tooling
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --verbose   # Include info-level findings

By default only errors and warnings are shown. Use --verbose to also display informational findings (e.g., external script dependency notices). Use --json for machine-readable output with errorCount, warningCount, infoCount, and a findings array.

compositions

List compositions found in the current project:

npx hyperframes compositions

benchmark

Run rendering benchmarks:

npx hyperframes benchmark ./my-composition.html

doctor

Check your environment for required dependencies (Chrome, FFmpeg, Node.js):

npx hyperframes doctor

browser

Manage the bundled Chrome/Chromium installation:

npx hyperframes browser

info

Print version and environment info:

npx hyperframes info

docs

Open the documentation in your browser:

npx hyperframes docs

upgrade

Check for updates and show upgrade instructions:

npx hyperframes upgrade
npx hyperframes upgrade --check --json  # machine-readable for agents
