A phone lyric screen: the sung line big and bold, the rest dimmed and blurred, synced word by word to a song.

What it does

A screen recording of a streaming app's full-screen lyrics view: the active line is large and white, neighboring lines fade and blur with distance, and the list spring-scrolls on every line. It took off with Jeff Guo's "Claude's Plan", a dev-culture parody whose lyric-screen clip reached 1.7M views in one X repost and, by the creator's count, 190K Douyin likes in a day. An agent generates an original song from the user's lyrics with Lyria 3.5 or ElevenLabs Music v2.5, force-aligns word times with Whisper to the known lyrics (Jeff used stable-whisper and librosa for the drops), and renders an in-house lyric player in HyperFrames with an optional album-art header, mesh-gradient background and translation line. varg puts the song, the timing and the render on one credit balance.

Status

A format people ask for that has no dedicated skill yet. Make it with the skills on the use-case pages below, or with varg directly.

Example: https://x.com/immasiddx/status/2074152481555386804

How an agent would make it: Song (Lyria 3.5 / ElevenLabs Music v2.5, or upload) → Whisper word timestamps force-aligned to the known lyrics → lyric JSON → HyperFrames lyric player (active line bold, blur by distance, spring scroll) → 9:16 export

Models it drives: lyria_3_5, eleven_music_v2_5, whisper, render
