Motion keyframes and times have different lengths

Category: Bugs
Severity: error

Enabled when: always
Default: Enabled

Validate the diagnostic

Confirm the reported code matches this rule before you edit it.

Confirm the reported code matches react-doctor/motion-keyframe-times-mismatch. Compare it with the Before example and verify the same API, framework, and execution context. Treat it as a false positive only when one of those conditions differs.

Compare the code

The corrected pattern shows a focused way to address the diagnostic.

Reported pattern

import { motion } from "motion/react";

<motion.div
  animate={{ opacity: [0, 1, 0] }}
  transition={{ times: [0, 1] }}
/>

Corrected pattern

import { motion } from "motion/react";

<motion.div
  animate={{ opacity: [0, 1, 0] }}
  transition={{ times: [0, 0.5, 1] }}
/>

How to fix

Use the corrected pattern as a reference. Preserve behavior that the rule does not require you to change.

Copyable fix prompt

Copy this self-contained prompt into your coding agent after you confirm the diagnostic.

Fix every confirmed react-doctor/motion-keyframe-times-mismatch diagnostic in the current repository. Required change: - Provide one transition time for each keyframe so Motion can place every value on the animation timeline.

Reference transformation:Before:

import { motion } from "motion/react";

<motion.div
  animate={{ opacity: [0, 1, 0] }}
  transition={{ times: [0, 1] }}
/>

After:

import { motion } from "motion/react";

<motion.div
  animate={{ opacity: [0, 1, 0] }}
  transition={{ times: [0, 0.5, 1] }}
/>

Constraints: - Confirm the reported code matches the Before pattern. - Make the smallest change that fixes the root cause. - Preserve behavior and interfaces unrelated to this diagnostic. - Reuse existing project components, utilities, and conventions. - Do not introduce render-phase side effects, render-phase state updates, or Hooks rule violations. - Adapt identifiers and framework details instead of copying blindly. - Do not disable the rule or suppress matching code. Verification: - Run focused tests for the changed behavior. - Run React Doctor and confirm this diagnostic no longer appears. - Report the files changed and any checks you could not run.
