hyperframes-animation

A reference for creating animation in HyperFrames, including reusable motion patterns, multi-stage scene templates, transitions, visual techniques, and runtime options such as GSAP, Lottie, and CSS keyframes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for motion or animation tasks, from combining small effects to building multi-phase scenes and transitions in HyperFrames.
Why use it?
It helps developers choose an appropriate animation pattern and keep complex motion organized in a paused timeline.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

hyperframes-animation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 85 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

HyperFrames Animation

All motion knowledge in one skill: rules (atomic recipes), blueprints (multi-phase scene templates), transitions (scene-to-scene), techniques (broader motion-design patterns), and adapters (per-runtime APIs).

For the composition contract (data attributes, sub-compositions, determinism) see hyperframes-core.

Default: compose atomic rules

Pick 2-4 rules from rules-index.md, glue them together with a single paused GSAP timeline, done. This is faster and produces less code than starting from a blueprint.

Load a blueprint when

  • The scene matches an existing pre-designed multi-phase template (brand-reveal, social-proof, etc.) and reusing its phase pipeline saves real authoring time
  • You want runnable ground-truth code for a complex 4-5 phase choreography

Blueprints live in blueprints-index.md. Each entry points to blueprints/<id>.md (recipe). Do not read it speculatively; load it when you've already decided you need scene-level orchestration.

What ships with it

60 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

hyperframes-animation is a skill published in the GitHub repository heygen-com/hyperframes (43,141 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 139 tokens to every session and 1,576 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
