On 2026-10-21 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 1043 ms.

• Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.
• Checked on 6 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.

Said by rules from the measurements above. The likely first call is a model's pick from the tool list; read its description before relying on it.

A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (25%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%), use (10%) and how readily a client connects (10%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →

• editorial_run_source

  Read the certified decode representation for media selected in this project before starting an editorial run. Supply projectId and mediaId; a null representation means this source cannot be pinned. The response omits internal storage…

• editorial_list_briefs

  Recover persisted authored briefs for a project. Read bounded pages; pass nextCursor as cursor until done. Brief IDs link to editorial runs.

• editorial_list_runs

  Recover persisted editorial runs for a project in bounded pages. Pass nextCursor as cursor until done, then read each relevant run for its integration decisions and unresolved gaps.

• editorial_get_run

  Read a persisted editorial run, including its revision, state, inputs, outline, selected finding IDs, omitted reasons and unresolved integration gaps. Read findings and evidence separately for complete coverage.

• editorial_list_evidence

  Read delivered evidence and inspection coverage for a run in bounded pages. Pass nextCursor as cursor until done; an empty page does not prove the whole source was inspected.

• editorial_findings_list

  Read durable observations, including useful, nothing-useful and uncertain outcomes, in bounded pages. Pass nextCursor as cursor until done; retain evidence IDs, supersession and uncertainty when recovering decisions.

• editorial_create_brief

  Persist an authored brief for the selected project. The projectId belongs in body.brief; use the returned briefId to start an editorial run.

• editorial_create_run

  Start an editorial run from a persisted brief and explicitly selected certified source ranges. Read editorial_run_source for each project media source first; use its exact identity, revision, frame count and fps ratio. Never invent a…

• editorial_inspect_source

  Deliver one exact decoded source frame as JPEG and save its evidence receipt. Only that sampled frame is visually inspected; preserve the returned evidenceId and coverage.

• editorial_sample_motion

  Deliver bounded sampled motion frames and save their evidence receipt. The sampled frames do not certify continuous visual coverage.

• editorial_inspect_audio

  Deliver a bounded 16 kHz source audio interval and save an audio evidence receipt. The interval must lie inside a certified run input.

• editorial_inspect_transcript

  Deliver at most 100 verified transcript words with their mapped certified decode interval and save a transcript evidence receipt.

• editorial_findings_append

  Persist one evidence-backed observation. A nothing_useful outcome may cover only what the cited evidence actually inspected; sparse stills do not certify an unsampled interval.

• editorial_integrate

  Save selected finding IDs, explicit omitted reasons and unresolved gaps with the observed run revision. Read the run and findings before deciding.

• editorial_apply

  Commit an integrated editorial edit to the saved project composition with both runExpectedRevision and guarded composition fields. Preserve the observed concurrency basis and the composition journal identity: nested composition.commandId…

• compose

  Start an async Director compose job: it authors an ensemble of full composition candidates, verifies each, and saves the winner to the project. Body must set EXACTLY ONE source (mutually exclusive): `briefId` — author FROM a persisted…

• apply_composition

  Atomically apply an array of CompositionOps to a project composition. All ops succeed or none do (transactional). Call describe_composition_ops without type for the compact operation list, then with a type for its exact JSON Schema. For…

• validate_composition

  Dry-run a full Composition object against the SAME pure, DB-free authoring guards saveComposition enforces, WITHOUT persisting it (no project needed). Checks: wire shape (Zod), primitive membership (unknown_primitive /…

• create_render

  Queue an MP4 render of a project's composition. Returns { id (renderId), status, warnings? } — `warnings[]` carries non-fatal advisories (omitted when none). The render themes from the project's brand kit (bind one via create_project /…

• preview_frame

  Queue durable still-frame evidence for layout/copy judgment. Returns immediately with {jobId, kind:'preview_frame', status}; then call wait_job(kind="preview_frame", id=jobId) to receive every presigned frame as an image. The immutable…

• preview_component

  Queue a typed preview artifact for ONE org-installed component — ASYNC: returns a jobId immediately; then wait_job(kind="preview", id=jobId). The preview and production compositor consume the same content-addressed component bundle and…

• preview_clip

  Render a scoped, cheap MOTION preview — ONLY body.fromSec→body.toSec of the composition (max 60s) at preview quality (capped resolution, lighter encode) through the real render pipeline. THE way to judge motion — a cut, a transition, a…

• score_composition

  Queue the durable server-side judge — it snapshots the exact authored target, samples eval beats, captures frames asynchronously, and grades editorial/spatial/brand/caption. Then wait_job(kind="verify", id=jobId) for per-criterion scores…

• consult

  Ask the Director for editing advice on the project's CURRENT composition — it NEVER writes your composition (you stay the decider). Async: returns a consultJobId; then wait_job(kind="consult", id=consultJobId, projectId=...) surfaces the…

• resume

  Answer the checkpoint packet wait_job reported as awaiting_input (its {checkpointId} — read the packet FIRST with get_checkpoint and relay the stills + money triple to your human). ONE `body.decision` per gate: 'approve' (proceed…

• create_brief

  Persist the video's INTENT as a Brief — the Director's rich input contract (spec: the storyboard skill's output lands here). Fields: goal (required), audience, platform, format, durationSec, tone, cta, locale (output language — all…

• get_brief

  Read a brief by id — the persisted intent plus its current quote (compose + estimated render).

• list_briefs

  List briefs. DEFAULT shows human-authored briefs only; kind:"clip" shows the machine-minted clip briefs (suggest_briefs output), kind:"all" shows everything. Each carries its quote.

• get_checkpoint

  Read a checkpoint packet — the durable approval unit a held compose pauses at (wait_job reports awaiting_input with {checkpointId, stage, version}). Carries the stage artifact, presigned storyboard stills (REVIEW THE EVIDENCE, not raw…

• list_checkpoints

  List checkpoint packets newest-first (filter with composeJobId for one run's v1→vN gate history, or projectId). The version stack with per-version status + decisions IS the review history — nothing is deleted.

• update_brief

  Edit a brief (partial). REFUSED with 409 while an ACTIVE compose job references it — finish, resume, or abandon the job first (the Director never has its input edited mid-run). Edits apply to the NEXT compose.

• delete_brief

  Delete a brief. Compose jobs already run from it are unaffected (they snapshot).

• select_candidate

  Select one candidate from a finished compose/consult ensemble as the project's saved composition (whole-candidate replace). Body REQUIRES both fields: { candidateIndex, selectStrategy: "agent-authoritative" } — candidateIndex from…

• create_component

  Create and store a custom component for the tenant: a native scene that arranges its declared images and videos as tiles in 3D space. Returns the ComponentResponse (id + metadata) you can then reference from a composition. No project arg…

• list_catalog

  Use projection:'component-library' for the unified source-free library page, returned as complete JSON with exact scoped definition/preset/recipe cards and pagination. Choose origin:'builtin' for the maintained builtins or…

• resolve_builtin_component

  Resolve a selected builtin component-library card using its exact collection, id and revision. Returns the canonical pinned document and source snapshots for a preset or recipe, or the exact source for a definition. Preserve…

• list_templates

  List this organization's saved templates. Follow pagination.nextCursor with after to read further pages. Public catalog slugs are not enumerated here; read a known public slug with get_template.

• get_template

  Read a saved organization template by id or a known public catalog template by slug. Use the returned document and exact reference to inspect required media parameters, presets, brand kit and rubric before start_template or…

• apply_template

  Insert a resolved builtin component package into an existing project. Pass template as the selected builtin id and body with projectId, the resolved documentSha256, insert:{startTime,idPrefix}, parameter values and explicit media…

• get_component_source

  Read an exact component source as complete JSON. Supply sourceVersionId from the selected catalog card to read that immutable revision, retaining sourceSnapshot with its complete versioned definition, manifest and template beside its…

• get_media_context

  Fetch bounded authoring context for a media item: dimensions/thumbnail, compact face roster, transcript counts/sample, temporal grids, and fact readiness. Transcript and word-grid counts cover one page only (default 20 utterances); pass…

• get_transcript

  Read exact source-time transcript words in bounded utterance pages. Word start/end values are seconds from the source media start. Default limit is 20; pass pagination.nextCursor as after for later pages. The formatter omits the unbounded…

• prepare_media

  Prepare the perception artifact an authored edit needs BEFORE sighted review. Pass body.kind="subjectTrack" for face/active-speaker reframing, or body.kind="matte" for a true zPlane:"behind-subject" graphic. Pass body.intent…

• get_media_facts

  Read prepared subject tracks and behind-subject mattes for one media item. For an exact readiness check, pass kind + startSec + endSec together using the same SOURCE window sent to prepare_media; exact.state is pending | ready | failed |…

• list_media

  List the media in your CueFrame library. Filter a real library with kind (video|audio|image|gif|asset|source|stock), source (upload|generated|import-url|stock), or tag — so you find YOUR footage, not e2e debris. Returns media item IDs and…

• download_media

  Get a presigned download URL for a media item's stored SOURCE file — the bytes CueFrame composes from (the raw upload, or its conformed transcode). This is how you copy media OUT of a library: fetch the URL directly (no auth header) and…

• get_render

  Read ONE render's record without waiting on it: status, progress while it runs, outputUrl + outputExpiresAt once complete, the typed failure (errorCode / category / retryable) if it failed, and WHAT RENDERED — compositionId (the…

• refresh_render_url

  Re-sign a COMPLETE render's output URL. A render's presigned MP4 link lasts ~7 days, so wait_job / getRender on an old render hands back a link that 403s; this mints a fresh one for the same file and returns { outputUrl, outputExpiresAt…

• create_project

  Create a new project — the unit you compose and render into. compose / apply_composition / create_render / the preview family all require a projectId; this mints one. Pass name (required) plus optionally a format…

• new_composition

  Create a NEW composition (a new video) inside a project — a project is a workspace that holds many videos. Returns { compositionId, format, etag }. Pass an optional name and format (aspectRatio/fps/resolution); format defaults to the…

• get_composition

  READ BACK a composition as JSON — the edit itself: tracks, clips, card HTML, reframe segments, captions, markers, format. This is what create_render encodes, so it is also what you hand to validate_composition (which needs a full inline…

• list_compositions

  List every composition (video) in a project, with its format and which one is active. Use a returned compositionId with create_render(compositionId=...) to render a specific video, or apply_composition to edit it.

• delete_composition

  Delete a composition (and its version history) from a project. REFUSES the ACTIVE composition (409) — make another one active first, or delete the project. Use list_compositions to see which is active.

• list_projects

  List your projects — re-orient in an existing workspace instead of minting duplicates (steady-state entry, A9). Each row carries the id every other tool needs.

• derive_composition

  Derive a reframed SIBLING composition for a different aspect ratio (the agent-native Auto-Reframe / Magic-Resize). Pass projectId + body { fromCompositionId, targetFormat: { aspectRatio, fps?, resolution? } }. CueFrame copies the source…

• import_media

  Import a media item into your library from a public URL — the agent-friendly ingest path (single call, no upload protocol). Pass url (https) + filename (+ optional contentType). Returns { id, status:"importing" }. Processing is async…

• generate_media

  Generate one first-class Library media item from a prompt. Choose generator: text-to-video | text-to-image | image-to-video | text-to-music | text-to-speech | text-to-sfx | auto. Put supported presentation controls in body.style and…

• create_upload

  Ingest a LOCAL file — bytes you hold, when there is no public URL to hand import_media (prefer import_media whenever the bytes already sit at an https URL). TWO steps: (1) this tool reserves a media item and returns { id, uploadUrl…

• finalize_upload

  Finalize a direct upload once you have PUT the bytes to the uploadUrl from create_upload. Confirms the bytes landed and starts ingest: image/asset become ready immediately (status "complete"); audio/video enter processing (status…

• search_resources

  Search licensed stock media to compose with across video, photo, sound effects, and GIFs. Pass query for ONE search, or queries[] (≤10) to run them all in a SINGLE call — strongly prefer the batch when you know several things you need. A…
