- `close_project`: Navigates the user's Frapea tab back to the project manager and releases this session's headless runtime for the project. When the tab shows that project it rel
- `close_timeline`: Closes a timeline's TAB in the editor — hides it from the tab row, does NOT delete it: it stays in the media pool, and you (or anyone) can still edit, verify, n
- `connect`: Pairs you with the user's Frapea browser tab. TWO WAYS ROUND. (1) If they already have Frapea open: ask them for the pairing code (the Connect MCP button) and c

- `download_stock_media`: Downloads one Pexels asset into the project's media pool as a virtual file at the Library root (name `pexels-<id>.jpg|.mp4`). Asynchronous: the first call accep

- `generate_captions`: Generates animated captions from a spoken clip's transcript (the same generator as Frapea's UI): transcript words group into caption text clips over the clip's 
- `generate_voiceover`: Generates an AI voiceover from a script — on-device with the free models, or in the cloud with ElevenLabs (the user's own key and credits). The WAV lands in the

- `get_motion_composition`: Returns a motion composition's manifest and full TSX sources.
- `get_problems`: What has gone WRONG in the user's editor — renders that failed or stopped, footage that would not decode, chunks that could not be prepared for playback, export
- `get_projects`: Lists the projects Frapea knows on this machine: id, name, lastOpenedAt, and for a project stored in a folder on disk its `folder` (the directory's name — files
- `get_timeline`: Reads a project's timeline structure: timelines (id, name, fps, resolution) with tracks and clips. THE USER CAN COPY A CLIP'S ID from the editor's right-click m
- `get_transcript`: Returns the word-level speech transcript of one media asset: language and words [{text, startSec, endSec}]. Only assets the user has transcribed have one — NOT_
- `insert_clips`: Ripple-inserts media segments: everything at/after atFrame shifts right to make room (clips under the cut split). Same clip shape as add_clips. Use to splice a 
- `inspect_media`: Looks INSIDE a source asset. Returns ONE contact sheet — every requested moment as a labelled cell in a single grid image — plus a per-cell fingerprint. Pass at
- `inspect_timeline`: WATCHES the cut. Composites every video layer at each requested frame and returns ONE contact sheet — the frames as labelled cells of a single grid image — plus
- `list_face_tracks`: Lists face-tracking runs and the people each one found: faceId, name, frame range, how many frames it was actually visible for, and how many gaps it has. Sample
- `list_motion_compositions`: Lists the project's motion compositions: id, mediaRef (for add_clips), name, size, fps, duration and the editable props schema.
- `list_voiceover_models`: The text-to-speech providers Frapea can generate voiceovers with. Returns providers[]: the FREE in-browser models straight from the TTS registry ({id, label, la

- `manage_transitions`: Transitions on a track's cuts OR lone clip edges (a free head/tail takes a single-sided fade from/to nothing; its alignment is forced). action: 'add' (trackId +
- `measure_loudness`: MEASURE THE MIX — you cannot hear it; this is how you check it. Mixes the timeline's audio offline exactly as an export does (every audio track, nested timeline
- `merge_faces`: Joins two or more faces from one run into a single person — for somebody who walked out of the shot and came back. REFUSED when any two of them appear on the sa
- `move_clips`: Moves clips to new positions (linked partners follow automatically). Each move: clipId, toStartFrame, optional toTrackId (same-kind track). Overwrite semantics 
- `new_project`: Creates a project. By default it is created in the browser's own storage, which needs no permission and no click: the project id comes back immediately and you 
- `open_project`: Navigates the user's Frapea tab to a project so they can WATCH the edit live. Not required for editing — every tool works headlessly; use this for show-your-wor
- `open_timeline`: Opens a timeline's TAB in the editor (the user can close tabs to keep the tab row short; a closed timeline is not deleted and every tool works on it as before).
- `organize_media`: Pool file operations. action: 'rename' renames the real file on disk (needs newName; clips referencing the old name go offline). 'delete' UNLINKS the file from 
- `organize_pool`: THE MEDIA POOL'S SHAPE — bins (the pool's folders) and what sits in them. Use it to tidy a project: group the footage, the voice-over, the music and the graphic
- `read_skill`: Returns Frapea's editing documentation for a topic. With no topic: the editing conventions, how the tools fit together and the current feature surface. MOTION t
- `remove_clips`: Deletes clips (lift — leaves a gap). Linked partners are NOT removed automatically; pass both ids of a pair to delete it whole. To close the gap too, use ripple
- `remove_silence`: Cuts silent gaps inside a clip: any pause between transcribed words longer than minGapSec becomes a ripple delete (a small margin is kept so speech never clips)
- `remove_words`: Text-based editing: cuts the given transcript words OUT of a clip as ripple deletes (everything after each cut shifts left). wordIndices are positions in get_tr
- `request_ai_models`: Asks the user to enable Frapea's on-device AI analyzers (picture search, speech). Opens a dialog in every Frapea tab and returns an actionId — tell the user IN 
- `retry_analysis`: Runs ONE analysis of ONE asset again — picture indexing or speech transcription — clearing whatever failure was recorded for it. If the asset already has a fini
- `ripple_delete_ranges`: Extracts [fromFrame, toFrame) on one track and shifts everything after it left to close the gap (sync-locked tracks follow). The go-to tool for tightening a cut
- `search_media`: Semantic search over the project's media. Visual scope matches what is IN the picture (describe a shot: 'aerial city at night'); spoken scope matches transcribe
- `search_sounds`: Searches the Freesound library (SFX, ambience, foley) with the user's connected API key. Every item carries what you need to JUDGE the sound without hearing it:
- `search_stock_media`: Searches the Pexels stock library (photos or videos) with the user's connected API key. Returns items with id, dimensions, duration (videos), author, thumbnail 
- `set_active_timeline`: Sets which timeline the project opens on (and what the user sees if the editor is open), opening its tab if it was closed. Purely a convenience — every tool her
- `set_clip_properties`: Adjusts a clip. Only the provided fields change. Mix: volume (0–2, 1 = unity), fadeInFrames / fadeOutFrames (gain or opacity ramps at the edges). Look: opacity 
- `set_keyframes`: Animates one clip property. property: opacity | volume | positionX | positionY | scaleX | scaleY | rotationDeg | pitch | yaw | anchorX | anchorY | cropLeft | cr
- `set_project_settings`: Updates a timeline's fps / width / height (clips keep their timing; content re-fits) and/or renames it. Only provided fields change.
- `split_clips`: Blades clips at a timeline frame. Splits every listed clip (and its linked partner) into two independent clips at atFrame. Frames are in the target timeline's f
- `start_transcription`: Transcribes one asset even if automatic transcription is switched off. Speech transcripts otherwise appear on their own. Returns the project's analysis status; 
- `start_visual_indexing`: Indexes the project's pictures for search_media. Usually not needed: indexing is automatic and this only nudges the queue to re-check now. When the user switche
- `track_faces`: Finds every FACE in a video clip and stores one independent path per person — position, size and head rotation (nod/turn/tilt) per frame. Queued, not immediate:
- `trim_clips`: Adjusts one edge of a clip (linked A/V partners follow). edge: 'start' trims/extends the in-point, 'end' the out-point. deltaFrames > 0 moves the edge right, < 
- `undo`: Reverts the most recent edit THIS agent session made to the project (one step per call; repeat to go further). Cannot revert other tabs' or the user's edits.
- `update_motion_composition`: Updates a motion composition's TSX files and/or manifest (name, duration, schema…). Same compile-and-test gate as create; files given here MERGE over the existi
- `verify_timeline`: Renders a timeline the way an export does and reports what fails. inspect_timeline shows a few frames through the preview path, which quietly substitutes a near
