fd621f0dba feat(motion,runtime): wire the three craft capabilities to the video-authoring dev (#544)
Playwright, the taste-skill design bar, and hyperframes were all
implemented — and each stopped one hop short of the hands doing video
work: playwright reached only fe-qa/ux-qa, the design bar's web-UI dials
actively pointed a video task at 'dense product UI -> motion 2-3', and
hyperframes' agent-facing doctrine never reached any agent. Three wires:

- vendor the official HyperFrames agent skills (hyperframes-core,
  -keyframes, -creative) under motion/skills/ at a pinned upstream
  commit (Apache-2.0, attribution headers; prose reflowed to house
  style, re-vendor note in each header); README and the dev video
  prompt block point at them
- register the playwright MCP for a ux-dev spawned onto a source=video
  task (_is_video_authoring_spawn: fail-closed role/team/task-source
  probe) so the composition author can watch their HTML live in a real
  browser between renders — gating-only, agent-ux already bakes the
  browser; QA gating unchanged, be-qa/ordinary ux-dev still excluded
- design bar video-mode override in the ux_ui team prompt: video tasks
  are films, the web dials do not apply — use the cinematography bar
  and the vendored doctrine instead

## Design bar
Distilled from `Leonxlnx/taste-skill` (MIT) — an anti-slop frontend framework: fixes generic layout, default fonts, and motion-for-its-own-sake. A taste layer on top of your stack, not a replacement for it.
### The three dials
State your read in your `decision` note before you build — don't silently default.
- You often move between a design artifact (Figma, a spec) and code — state the dial read and rules in the spec, then hold the implementation to the same bar.
- **DESIGN_VARIANCE (1-10):** 1-3 predictable (symmetric grid, equal paddings) · 4-7 offset (overlaps, mixed aspect ratios) · 8-10 asymmetric (masonry, fractional grids, bold negative space). Always collapses to single-column below `md:`.
- **MOTION_INTENSITY (1-10):** 1-3 static (hover/active only) · 4-7 fluid `transform`/`opacity` transitions · 8-10 scroll-driven choreography. Above 3, `prefers-reduced-motion` support is mandatory.
- **VISUAL_DENSITY (1-10):** 1-3 airy/gallery-like · 4-7 standard app spacing · 8-10 packed/tabular (tight paddings, no card boxes, monospace/tabular numerals).
- **Defaults:** dense product UI (admin panels, dashboards, data tables) → `2-3 / 2-3 / 7-8`. Landing/marketing/portfolio surface → `7 / 6 / 4` (SaaS baseline; push variance/motion higher for agency/creative briefs).
- **Video-authoring tasks (source=video, `motion/` compositions) are FILMS, not UI:** these dials do not apply — a video *about* a dense panel is still a marketing film. Use `motion/README.md`'s "Cinematography & rhythm" bar and the vendored renderer doctrine in `motion/skills/` instead: the camera moves, the cursor behaves like a hand, beats have rhythm. Reading "dashboard → motion 2-3" as a reason to ship a static slideshow is the failure mode this line exists to kill.
### Typography & hierarchy
- Hierarchy comes from weight + size + color + whitespace, not just "make it bigger."
- Body copy: cap line length around 65-75ch.
- One accent color per project; WCAG AA contrast minimum (4.5:1 body, 3:1 large text) — audit every button, form label, and ghost-button-over-photo before shipping.
- Numeric/data-heavy UI (tables, metrics, IDs): tabular figures, not proportional digits that jiggle column widths.
- A project's existing font/color/radius choice is a decision, not a default to silently swap because this bar suggests otherwise — a real change gets its own task.
### Spacing & layout
- Consistent vertical rhythm across siblings: aligned card/column baselines, CTAs bottom-aligned across a row regardless of copy length above them.
- Grid over flexbox-percentage-math for multi-column layout.
- `min-h-[100dvh]`, never `h-screen`, for full-bleed sections (mobile viewport jump).
- Cards only when elevation communicates real hierarchy — otherwise a divider or spacing does the job. One corner-radius scale, one shadow tint, per project.
- Avoid the reflexive three-equal-cards-in-a-row layout; vary composition instead.
### Motion
- Every animation needs a one-sentence justification: hierarchy, storytelling, feedback, or state change. "It looked cool" is not one.
- Animate `transform`/`opacity` only — never `top`/`left`/`width`/`height`, never a raw `scroll` event listener (`useScroll`/`IntersectionObserver`/ `ScrollTrigger`/CSS scroll-driven animation instead).
- Loading/empty/error states are part of the design, not an afterthought — skeletons matching the final layout, not generic spinners.
### AI tells to avoid
In anything you write for an end user — copy, demo data, layout — not your own commits/journal/PR text:
- No em-dash in product copy you author: headlines, labels, button text, placeholders.
- No "Jane Doe" / "Acme Corp" / suspiciously-round numbers in placeholder content — specific-sounding names, organic numbers.
- No filler verbs ("Elevate", "Seamless", "Unleash", "Next-Gen").
- No default AI-purple glow, no pure `#000`/`#fff`. One icon family per project.
### Where this applies
Building or touching the RoboCo control panel or any dense admin/dashboard surface: work within the project's existing design system for structural chrome (nav, tables, forms, theme tokens); apply the rules above on top of it. taste-skill's landing-page-specific hard caps (hero word/line limits, eyebrow-per-3-sections, bento cell-count, marquee-max-one) are for marketing/landing/portfolio surfaces, not dashboards. Check the task brief if you're unsure which mode you're in.
