code-slice-hero is a HyperFrames block, a ready-made scene you add to a video project. A full square-tile surface carries one seamless headline. An imaginary cursor crosses it, nearby tiles lift and tilt, and only the tiles that intersect either headline turn over to reveal the rear headline.

It renders at 1920x1080 and 30 fps for 8 seconds. Eighteen variables set the two headlines, sweep direction and timing, cursor reach, tile size, depth, bounce and shadow. SKILL.md says it needs no external runtime dependencies.

Good for

Developers and designers making videos with HyperFrames
Designers who need a typographic hero or transition
Marketers making short branded openers

Install code-slice-hero

Any client

1
Run this in a terminal.
shell
```
npx hyperframes add code-slice-hero
```

Requires Node.js 22 or later, A HyperFrames project.

Run the add command from your HyperFrames video project. The files land under compositions/code-slice-hero/. The README documents creating a project with npx hyperframes init and lists Node.js 22+ and FFmpeg as requirements. This block is a ready-made scene and not an agent workflow, so there is no Claude app upload route.

From the project README. Source.

What it includes

One block, id code-slice-hero, 8 s
A tiled surface with one headline. Tiles respond to a moving cursor with lift and tilt, and the tiles under either headline flip to show the rear one. The grid is one instanced WebGL 2 draw with a batched shadow pass.

18 settings you can override at render time
headline, reverseHeadline, direction, sweepDuration, sweepEaseStrength, flipDuration, cursorRadius, cursorFalloff, cursorDepth, tiltStrength, noiseStrength, flipBounce, cellSize, formationScale, fontSize, behindColor, shadowStrength and shadowSoftness.

Copies the files into compositions/code-slice-hero/

Renders the composition file with --variables
Runs hyperframes render on the composition file with your values as JSON.

Paused GSAP timeline, seek-safe frames
One paused GSAP timeline is registered as window.__timelines["code-slice-hero"] and every frame is a function of time.

Three rules from the source project
Keep data-composition-variables a single-quoted attribute with plain JSON and never save it through Studio's Design panel. Do not put a canvas in static markup. Keep every visual state a function of time.

Watch out for

Render uses npx with --yes
The render command in SKILL.md is npx --yes hyperframes@0.8.12, which installs that package without asking. Run it in a project you trust. github.com
The add command writes files into your project
hyperframes add copies the block's files into compositions/code-slice-hero/ (see registry-item.json). Check the folder before committing. github.com

Questions

What does code-slice-hero do?

A ready-made HyperFrames hero scene: a tiled headline flips tile by tile to reveal a rear headline. It is a block from the HyperFrames catalog, so it adds a finished scene to a video project and does not change how Claude works.

How do I install code-slice-hero?

Use the install box at the top of this page. It adds the block to a HyperFrames project, shows how to mount it in index.html and gives the render command.

Do I need the HyperFrames agent skills?

Not to add or render this block, because SKILL.md gives the commands. If you want an agent to build more compositions, the HyperFrames README documents its agent skills and a Claude Code plugin.

What can I change?

18 variables. headline, reverseHeadline, direction, sweepDuration, sweepEaseStrength, flipDuration, cursorRadius, cursorFalloff, cursorDepth, tiltStrength, noiseStrength, flipBounce, cellSize, formationScale, fontSize, behindColor, shadowStrength and shadowSoftness.

What does it need?

A HyperFrames project with Node.js 22 or later and FFmpeg, per the README.

Can I use it in the Claude app?

No. The block is added and rendered with commands on your machine, and the README does not document a Claude app route.

Is it safe?

Installing it copies files into your project, and rendering runs npx and the HyperFrames CLI on your machine. SKILL.md lists no external runtime dependencies. Read the files before you render, and keep the project in version control.
