Three independently ugly bugs that all fed the same log flood:
* Electron's `WebFrameMain.send` writes every "Render frame was disposed"
to stderr via `console.error`. When the worker fans a second
agent-event past a reloading renderer, we produced thousands of
identical lines and stalled the main loop on stderr I/O. Added a
`mainFrame.detached` guard so the send is short-circuited before
Electron's own catch block fires, and installed a targeted filter in
`suppress-warnings.ts` (now actually imported from the entry point)
so the specific `console.error("Error sending from webFrameMain:"…)`
noise never reaches the terminal. Any other payload still surfaces.
* `dispatchAgentMessage` accepted the human-reader sentinel as a wake
target when an agent replied to `__board__` — `wakeAgentIfPossible`
then called `db.getAgent("__board__")`, threw, and the dispatcher
kept repeating on every send. Strip `HUMAN_SENDER_ID` at
`resolveMessageWakeTargets`, and keep a defense-in-depth guard in the
heartbeat so a stray caller (future automation fan-out) cannot
reintroduce the crash.
* Pi's skills loader rejects any SKILL.md whose frontmatter `name`
diverges from its parent directory. The four bundled `my-writing-style`
copies declared `name: writing-style-skill`, so every install emitted
a warning and dropped the skill. They also lived as orphan gitlinks
(mode 160000 without .gitmodules), and the global `*.md` gitignore
hid every other SKILL.md from version control. Fixed the frontmatter
to match the dir, converted the dangling submodules to plain trees,
and allowlisted `builtin-skills/**/*.md` so a fresh clone carries the
catalogue instead of silently losing it.

Importing .srt subtitles into Remotion
If you have an existing .srt subtitle file, you can import it into Remotion using parseSrt() from @remotion/captions.
If you don't have a .srt file, read Transcribing audio for how to generate captions instead.
Prerequisites
First, the @remotion/captions package needs to be installed. If it is not installed, use the following command:
npx remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses npm
bunx remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses bun
yarn remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses yarn
pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses pnpm
Reading an .srt file
Use staticFile() to reference an .srt file in your public folder, then fetch and parse it:
import { useState, useEffect, useCallback } from "react";
import { AbsoluteFill, staticFile, useDelayRender } from "remotion";
import { parseSrt } from "@remotion/captions";
import type { Caption } from "@remotion/captions";
export const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
const [captions, setCaptions] = useState<Caption[] | null>(null);
const { delayRender, continueRender, cancelRender } = useDelayRender();
const [handle] = useState(() => delayRender());
const fetchCaptions = useCallback(async () => {
try {
const response = await fetch(staticFile("subtitles.srt"));
const text = await response.text();
const { captions: parsed } = parseSrt({ input: text });
setCaptions(parsed);
continueRender(handle);
} catch (e) {
cancelRender(e);
}
}, [continueRender, cancelRender, handle]);
useEffect(() => {
fetchCaptions();
}, [fetchCaptions]);
if (!captions) {
return null;
}
return <AbsoluteFill>{/* Use captions here */}</AbsoluteFill>;
};
Remote URLs are also supported - you can fetch() a remote file via URL instead of using staticFile().
Using imported captions
Once parsed, the captions are in the Caption format and can be used with all @remotion/captions utilities.
