Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install speed-based-echo-smear

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent adds to your HyperFrames composition an effect that records each element's real trajectory, then trails offset copies behind it, combined by brightest pixel. You call the function once, after your animations. You get motion blur inspired by the After Effects Echo effect.
