What is hyperframes-cli?

A command-line workflow for building, checking, previewing, rendering, and publishing HyperFrames projects. A command-line tool is a program operated by typing commands in a terminal.

Use it to start projects, find reusable effects, lint and test compositions, capture previews, render videos, compare results, and publish them.

It puts the main project tasks in one documented loop and helps inspect or validate a composition before rendering it as video.

hyperframes-cli — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by jxoesneon/Ciel

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Any agent

npx skills add jxoesneon/Ciel --skill hyperframes-cli

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jxoesneon/Ciel

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00135	$0.04536
Opus 5.5	$0.00054	$0.01814
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00027	$0.00907
Haiku 4.5	$0.00014	$0.00454

Security

Grade A, and why

hyperframes-cli 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 4d 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 — 185 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Plugin installs: Before setup or freshness commands, follow plugin execution rules when this skill is inside a HyperFrames plugin. Standalone installs keep the update instructions below.

HyperFrames CLI

Run commands as npx hyperframes ... unless project instructions provide a wrapper. Obey the wrapper when present. The CLI requires Node.js 22 or newer and FFmpeg.

Development loop

Scaffold: npx hyperframes init <project> (centered blank). Or capture a site. Pass --example=<name> only to start from a named example.
Find the move: if the request names an asset, sound, image, voice or fast visual edit, resolve it through /media-use before proposing a plan. Otherwise, before authoring motion by hand, search for a primitive that already does it: npx hyperframes catalog --query "reveal a headline one line at a time". Ask for the effect you want rather than the mechanism you have in mind. Install with npx hyperframes add <name> (see /hyperframes-registry). Author by hand only once nothing fits.
Author: write the composition using /hyperframes-core. To know what is on a project's timeline (tracks, clips, starts, ends, what plays), run npx hyperframes timeline --json instead of reading index.html and every sub-composition file: nested rows carry absolute main-timeline absStart/absEnd and their owning file, not just their local, per-sub-composition time. Prefer --json over the text form; it costs fewer tokens for the same or better correctness. See references/upgrade-info-misc.md for one-liners that answer common questions without reading the whole output.
Get fast feedback while editing: run npx hyperframes lint after the first HTML pass and after structural changes.
Run the final gate: run npx hyperframes check; it reruns lint before opening the browser. Do not prepend a redundant standalone lint invocation. Add --snapshots for annotated overview frames and finding crops.
Inspect sub-compositions: when index.html mounts data-composition-src, capture midpoint snapshots and inspect each mounted scene.
Open the final Studio preview: run npx hyperframes preview --background, verify the URL returns HTTP 200, hand the timeline project URL to the user, and ask whether to revise or render. Keep it alive until review ends.
Render only after approval: use --quality draft while iterating, --quality looks for the first real encode (the CLI default), and --quality delivery for final delivery.
Verify the output: confirm the file exists and is non-empty. Read the render summary's second line (beginframe vs screenshot, GPU, stage timings). screenshot + software gpu on Linux is the slow path. ffprobe -v error -show_format -show_streams and compare duration (and fps if the brief set it) to the root data-duration.

Files

What ships with it

11 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-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository jxoesneon/Ciel (1 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 135 tokens to every session and 4,536 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-30.
