HyperFrames Motion Graphics for Codex: Short Kinetic Typography
Make a short, silent kinetic typography card with the maintained HyperFrames motion reference and see what changed after the standalone Motion Graphics skill retired.
中文Setup for Codex (current HyperFrames replacement)
Codex, Node.js 22 or newer for the local HyperFrames CLI, and a disposable project. The separate motion-graphics skill was retired upstream. This example uses its maintained /hyperframes workflow.
- If the HyperFrames plugin is available in Codex, enable it. For a standalone setup, run `npx skills add heygen-com/hyperframes` in a scratch project, select hyperframes for Codex, and start a fresh session.
- Ask the agent to load /hyperframes and read `skills/hyperframes/references/motion.md` and `skills/hyperframes/references/film.md` from the installed bundle or the upstream v0.9.53 tree. Use `npx hyperframes@0.9.53` for the pinned CLI when running the example's checks.
- For historical reading, the original GitHub source below preserves the standalone motion-graphics document from before the retirement.
Example task
Ask Codex to produce a one-shot 5-second type card for the phrase 'Draft less, ship more'. Bring in the first phrase at 0.5 seconds and the second at 1.5 seconds; keep both visible from 2 through 4.5 seconds. Inspect a frame at 1.0 and another at 3.0 seconds.Expected result
Only the first phrase is visible in the 1.0-second frame. Both are readable in the 3.0-second frame. The requested card has one scene and zero audio tracks.

Frequently asked question
Is the short motion graphics workflow still supported?
Yes. Start with the main HyperFrames skill and read its motion reference for titles, holds and cuts. The previous independent command name was retired.
