Agent Media OS, the single skill for every media need in a HyperFrames project. Resolve BGM, SFX, image, icon, brand logo, voice, color grade, or LUT into a frozen local file or paste-ready block + ledger record (one verb, `resolve`); generate via TTS / music / image models when the catalog misses; produce voiceover, transcription, captions, and background removal through one shared audio engine; operate on media (cut / reframe / transform); and reuse assets across projects. Keeps search noise on disk, hands the agent one path or block. Use for any audio, image, icon, logo, voiceover, caption, color-grading, or media-asset need.

Turn arbitrary text — an article, notes, a topic, a brief — into a faceless explainer video: there is no site or footage to capture, so the visuals are invented per scene (typography, abstract graphics, diagrams, data-viz). Use for topic explainers, concept breakdowns, how-tos, listicles. Not a product promo (/product-launch-video) or a site tour (/website-to-video). Unclear → /hyperframes.

Turn a GitHub pull request (a PR URL, owner/repo#N, or 'this PR' in a checked-out repo) into a code-change explainer video — changelog, feature reveal, fix, or refactor walkthrough built from the diff, commits, and files: the input is a code change, not a website. Not a product promo (/product-launch-video) or a no-PR topic explainer (/faceless-explainer). Unclear → /hyperframes.

Turn a product or marketing URL, pasted script, or brief into a product launch / promo video — SaaS promos, feature reveals, product demos, app and company launches. Use when the user wants to market, launch, promote, or reveal a product; the default for any commercial URL. Not a general site tour (/website-to-video). Unclear → /hyperframes.

The HyperFrames composition contract — build one renderable project. Use for composition structure, the `data-*` timing attributes, `class="clip"`, tracks, sub-compositions, variables, framework-owned media playback, deterministic-render rules, and validation. Also covers Tailwind projects and the STORYBOARD.md / SCRIPT.md plan formats. Read before writing composition HTML.

Import Figma content into a HyperFrames composition — rendered assets, brand tokens, components, storyboard sections → reconstructed motion (frames read as states, not slides) (REST/CLI), Figma Motion animations (MCP), and shaders (MCP source / native export). Use when the user pastes a figma.com link or asks to bring a Figma design, frame, logo, brand, or animation into a video/composition.

The fallback workflow for authoring or editing any custom HyperFrames composition at any length or format — longer / multi-scene pieces, brand and sizzle reels, montages, title cards, static loops, freeform builds. Use only when no specialized workflow fits the input; routing table at /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). Also covers auditing an existing composition's choreography (animation map) and 24 named text-animation effects. HyperFrames-native: single paused timeline, seek-safe, deterministic.

Render the staged composition and return the playable video. Picks between HeyGen cloud render (default) and local in-sandbox render at runtime. Use as the final step, after customize-composition.

Validate the generated content against the composition's real variable schema and stage it for rendering. Use after generate-script and before render-and-return.

Decide the actual content (headline copy, feature lines, colors, etc.) for the chosen composition's variables. Use after pick-composition and before customize-composition.

Synthesize a spoken voiceover for the video from the narration script via HeyGen TTS. Use after generate-script and before customize-composition. Runs by default for every video unless the user asked for no narration.

Choose the best starter composition for the user's request. Use this first, at the start of every new video request, before generating any content.

Create a persistent HeyGen avatar — a reusable face + voice identity for the agent, the user, or any named character — powered by HeyGen Avatar V technology. Prompt-based creation by default (description → HeyGen builds it); photo upload is optional for real-person digital twins. Use when: (1) giving the agent a face + voice so it can present videos ("bring yourself to life", "create your avatar", "give yourself an avatar", "design a presenter", "set up an avatar", "let's make an avatar"), (2) the user wants to appear in videos as themselves ("create my avatar", "I want my face in a video", "digital twin of me", "build me an avatar"), (3) building a named character presenter ("create an avatar called Cleo", "design a character named X"), (4) establishing HeyGen identity before making videos — the correct FIRST step when no avatar exists yet. Chain signal: when the user says both an identity/avatar action AND a video action in the same request ("create an avatar AND make a video", "set up identity THEN create

Translate and dub a video into another language with voice cloning and lip-sync, powered by HeyGen Video Translation. The presenter keeps their face, their voice is cloned into the target language, and lips re-sync to the new audio — viewers see the same person speaking natively. Use when: (1) localizing an existing video into one or more languages ("translate this video to Spanish", "make this in French and German", "dub this into Japanese", "I need this in 10 languages for a launch"), (2) the user has a finished video and wants the SAME presenter speaking another language (not a new presenter — that's heygen-video), (3) podcast / audio-only translation ("translate this podcast", "dub the audio but keep my video"), (4) high-stakes translations where the user wants to review/edit subtitles before final render (the proofreads workflow), (5) "translate my video", "dub this", "localize this clip", "make a multilingual version", "subtitle and dub". Returns the translated video URL (or audio file for audio-only mo

Generate HeyGen presenter videos via the v3 Video Agent pipeline — handles Frame Check (aspect ratio correction), prompt engineering, avatar resolution, and voice selection. Required for any HeyGen video generation. Replaces deprecated endpoints with v3. Use when: (1) generating any HeyGen video (via API or otherwise), (2) sending a personalized video message (outreach, update, announcement, pitch, knowledge), (3) creating a HeyGen presenter-led explainer, tutorial, or product demo with a human face, (4) "make a video of me saying...", "send a video to my leads", "record an update for my team", "create a video pitch", "make a loom-style message", "I want to appear in this video", "generate a HeyGen video", "make a talking head video". Accepts avatar_id from heygen-avatar for identity-first HeyGen videos, or uses a stock presenter. Returns video share URL + HeyGen session URL for iteration. Chain signal: when the user wants to create/design an avatar AND make a video in the same request, run heygen-avatar firs

Create AI videos, manage avatars, translate videos, and download results via the HeyGen API. Use when an agent needs to generate videos from text prompts, create avatar-based videos, translate existing videos, or automate video production workflows.

End-to-end test of the heygen CLI against the live API. Builds the binary, then exercises auth, list, get, --human, schema, error handling, and the full create-poll-download-delete write path. Spends a small number of API credits per run. Use before cutting a stable release.

Generate a user-facing changelog for the next stable release. Reads git log between the last stable tag and HEAD, categorizes changes, and outputs formatted release notes. Use before triggering a stable release.

Create HeyGen avatar videos via the v3 Video Agent pipeline — handles avatar resolution, aspect ratio correction, prompt engineering, and voice selection automatically. Required for any HeyGen API usage (api.heygen.com). Replaces deprecated v1/v2 endpoints with the optimized v3 pipeline. Use when: (1) calling any HeyGen API endpoint (api.heygen.com), (2) creating a HeyGen avatar or digital twin from a photo, (3) making a personalized video message (outreach, pitch, update, announcement, knowledge), (4) "make a video of me", "create my HeyGen avatar", "I want to appear in this video", (5) "send a video to my leads", "record an update for my team", "make a loom-style message", (6) building identity-first videos where the presenter IS the user or agent, Covers: HeyGen API, api.heygen.com, video generate, avatar create, voice list, talking photo, HeyGen avatar creation, voice design, photo → digital twin, HeyGen video generation, identity-first video, messaging-first video, AI presenter, talking head video.

Create a persistent HeyGen avatar that looks and sounds like a specific person — the user, the agent, or any named character — powered by HeyGen Avatar V technology. Upload a photo → HeyGen builds a digital twin → reuse across unlimited videos. Use when: (1) someone wants to appear in a video as themselves ("I want my face in a video", "create my HeyGen avatar", "build a digital twin of me"), (2) setting up a HeyGen identity before making videos or sending video messages — the correct FIRST step for new users, (3) "create my avatar", "design an avatar", "give me a consistent look across my videos", "bring yourself to life", "set up my identity on HeyGen", "set up my HeyGen identity", "get started with HeyGen", "help me get started with AI video". Chain signal: when the user says both an identity/avatar action AND a video action in the same request ("design an avatar AND make a video", "set up my identity THEN create a video", "design a presenter AND immediately record"), run heygen-avatar first, then heygen-v

Collect and submit developer feedback to the LiveAvatar team. Use when: (1) A LiveAvatar integration is done, working, finished, or complete, (2) The user says "it works", "we're done", "that's it", "ship it", (3) The user is frustrated, stuck, or giving up — "this is broken", "this doesn't work", "I'm stuck", "I give up", "this is frustrating", "I want to report an issue", (4) The user explicitly asks to give feedback, report a bug, file an issue, or share a suggestion about LiveAvatar, (5) You've seen 3+ failed attempts at the same integration step, (6) You just finished writing or generating LiveAvatar integration code for the user.

Build a LiveAvatar integration end-to-end — assesses the user's existing stack, recommends the optimal path, and guides implementation.
