About this capability
Optimize Remotion Studio render performance by minimizing frame-reactive component surfaces, preferring imperative timeline state reads, and memoizing stable render boundaries. Use when code reads the current frame with `useTimelinePosition()` or components unnecessarily render on every frame.
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by remotion-dev/remotion in .agents/skills/studio-perf/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Minimize frame subscriptions
Keep dependencies on the current frame as low in the component tree as possible.
Prefer imperative timeline state reads such as getCurrentFrame() over
Internals.Timeline.useTimelinePosition() for event handlers and other
on-demand logic.
Use useTimelinePosition() only in the smallest leaf component whose rendered
output must change with the frame. If a parent reads the frame only to pass it
to a child, extract a frame-subscribing child so the parent and its other
descendants stay stable.
Memoize stable boundaries
Wrap components in React.memo() when they can safely skip parent-driven
renders. Confirm that their props remain referentially stable across frame
updates: newly created objects, callbacks, styles, or React nodes defeat shallow
memoization. Stabilize those props only where it is natural; avoid custom
comparators that ignore behaviorally relevant changes.
Context subscribers continue to update through memoized ancestors. Prefer a memoized stable parent with a small frame-subscribing leaf over making the whole subtree reactive to the current frame.
