Scramble Reveal

That writes one file: compositions/components/scramble-reveal.html.

Paste it into your composition

Open compositions/components/scramble-reveal.html and copy what is inside into your own composition. A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition you paste it into.

Variables

Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you want to change on the element:

Variable	Default	Accepts	What it does
`text`	`HYPERFRAMES`	string	Target string that resolves from deterministic wrong glyphs.
`accent`	`green`	`green`, `blue`, `violet`	Color used by the text, prefix, and optional terminal frame.
`style`	`terminal`	`terminal`, `clean`	Terminal frame or clean text-only presentation.
`exit`	`none`	`none`, `fade`, `up`	Optional departure. Default none: the locked string holds until the frame cuts.

Set them with data-variable-values on the element that mounts it. These are the defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:

<div
  data-composition-id="scramble-reveal"
  data-composition-src="compositions/components/scramble-reveal.html"
  data-variable-values='{"text":"HYPERFRAMES","accent":"green","style":"terminal","exit":"none"}'
></div>

  scramble-reveal: HyperFrames video primitive (text effects / reveal)

  A target string begins as deterministic wrong glyphs, then resolves one
  character at a time from left to right. Every visible frame comes from one
  fixed-seed LCG table built before the timeline is registered.

  Variables:
    - text (string, default "HYPERFRAMES"): the target string.
    - accent (green | blue | violet, default "green"): text and frame color.
    - style (terminal | clean, default "terminal"): optional terminal frame.
    - exit (none | fade | up, default "none"): optional departure.

  Envelope, fixed IN and OUT with elastic HOLD only:
    IN_BASE  = 1.65s, curved arrival and the complete left-to-right lock
    HOLD     = max(0, D - IN - OUT), subtle drift followed by 0.30s stillness
    OUT_BASE = 0.45s departure when exit is fade or up, 0s when exit is
               none (the default: the locked string holds until the cut)
    If D is shorter than IN_BASE + OUT_BASE, IN and OUT compress together.
    The timeline is never time-scaled.

  Determinism: frameTable is computed exactly once during synchronous
  timeline construction from fixed LCG seed 0x27c0ffee. Timeline sets only
  read authored rows from that table, so repeated or reverse seeks produce
  the same string for the same time.

  Mount contract: the runtime clones only this template. #root fills the host
  box, establishes the container query basis, has no data-width or data-height,
  and registers one paused timeline under the literal scramble-reveal key.
