Framesail MCP

List your channels. Every project lives in a channel, which owns the reusable styles (art/narrative/director) that drive generation.

No parameter schema on file.

Create a new channel — the container for projects and their reusable styles. Use when the user wants a fresh creative identity rather than adding to an existing channel.

List projects in a channel.

Create a project. The description (the video concept/topic) seeds script generation, so write a meaningful one. Pass video_format='portrait' for a vertical video — every shot, overlay, and the export are then composed for a 9:16 frame. The response's web_url is the project's page in the web app — share it so the user can follow along.

Fetch a project row — settings, voice config, default style, export URL.

Patch project fields. Updatable: title, description, asset_mix, sfx_level, video_concept, voice_mix, voice_tts_provider, script_target_minutes, narrator_speed, video_format. (The narrator's TTS voice is NOT here — use set_narrator_voice.) video_format ('landscape' | 'portrait') is only changeable until the storyboard exists — after that the shots and overlays are composed for

Permanently delete a project and everything in it (script versions, assets, voiceover, segments, renders). Irreversible — confirm with your user first.

Set the project's default style — the style whose art/narrative/director fields drive its generations. Use after create_style to put a new visual identity into effect, or to switch a project between channel styles.

Merge a patch into the project's burned-in caption config (keys like enabled, plus styling). Read the current value from get_project (caption_config). Applies at the next export — no rebuild needed.

THE resume/orientation tool: one call returns every pipeline step's state (script -> scan -> reference_images -> voices -> voiceover -> style_templates -> storyboard -> segment_assets -> scenes -> export), any running jobs, and a next_action telling you exactly what to do next. Call this when picking up an existing project, after any await_jobs, or whenever you're unsure where

Poll this between steps: returns active + recently-finished AI jobs (scope by project_id, or style_id for style analysis), plus per-segment- asset render statuses for projects. A step is done when its jobs reach status=complete (or error, with a user-readable message). NOTE: finished jobs drop out of jobs after ~30s — a short list does NOT mean work was lost; judge render bat

Block (server-side) until the scope has no pending/running jobs, or the timeout passes — use this instead of polling get_workflow_status yourself. Returns {done, jobs}. If done=false the work is still running: just call await_jobs again (a 3-5 minute storyboard takes a few consecutive calls). Keep timeout_seconds <= 50 so the client doesn't time out the tool call.

Inspect the prompt sections a generation job exposes for per-call override via editable_sections (jobs: script, script_scan, storyboard, segment_image, segment_video, voice_block, ...). Sections marked locked cannot be overridden.

List the models allowed for a generation job, with display names, credit estimates, and each model's settings_schema — the valid keys for that tool's settings param (e.g. image quality/orientation, video duration). The first entry is the default every tool uses when model is omitted. Voice models carry a provider field — a voice_block model must match the project's voice_tt

Generate the project's script from its description/concept and the channel's narrative style. Async — returns {job_id}; poll get_workflow_status.

Read the active script's full text + the version list. Use this to show the script to your user for review/feedback before scan_script — the review-edit-resave loop (get_script -> discuss -> save_script) is the expected workflow when the user wants input.

Save script text (your own draft, or an edited version of the generated one — saving creates a new version, old versions are kept). Run scan_script afterwards so assets and voice blocks reflect the new text.

AI-rewrite a passage of the active script in the project's narrative voice (the same in-editor revise the UI offers). selected_text must appear verbatim in the script; omit it to revise the whole script. Synchronous — returns {revised_text}, which is NOT saved: splice it over selected_text (or replace the full script) and call save_script to keep it.

Switch the project's active script to another saved version (ids come from get_script's version list — every save_script creates one). Re-run scan_script / rescan_voice_blocks afterwards if the text differs, since downstream artifacts follow the active version.

Analyze the active script: extracts character/environment/object assets and splits narration into voice blocks. DESTRUCTIVE on re-run (assets are recreated, not merged — curated descriptions, reference images, and voices are lost; prefer rescan_voice_blocks after script edits). Async — returns {job_id}.

List the project's assets extracted by scan_script — characters, environments, objects. Each has a description (the spec every shot uses to render it — surfaced top-level here; the raw row nests it at ai_output.description), an optional reference image (file_path is a public URL — view_image it), and for characters a voice_id. Review these after scan_script: fix descriptions, t

Manually add a character/environment/object the scan missed. asset_type: "character" | "environment" | "object". The description is the generation-facing spec of its look — be specific.

Rename an asset and/or rewrite its description. If the look changed, regenerate its reference image afterwards so renders match.

Delete a project asset (e.g. one the scan over-extracted).

Render an asset's reference image in the channel's art style — the visual anchor that keeps a character/environment looking identical across every shot. EVERY character, environment, and object asset needs one before generate_voiceover (the server enforces this; fire the jobs for all assets, then one await_jobs). Async — the job writes the image onto the asset row: await_jobs(p

Bind a TTS voice to a character asset — required before generate_voiceover for every character with dialogue (the narrator's voice is separate: set_narrator_voice). Browse ids with list_voices.

List available TTS voices (id, label, preview audio URL) for a provider: "minimax" (default engine) or "elevenlabs". Match the project's voice_tts_provider (see get_project) so picked ids work with its engine.

Set the project's narrator TTS voice — required before generate_voiceover whenever the script has narration. Browse ids with list_voices. (Character dialogue voices are separate: set_character_voice.)

List the project's voice blocks (per-speaker narration chunks) with their audio status and assigned voices.

Override one voice block's voice or playback volume (block ids from list_voice_blocks). Re-run generate_voiceover for the block afterwards if you changed its voice — existing audio is not regenerated automatically.

Re-extract voice blocks from the active script WITHOUT touching assets or their reference images — the non-destructive alternative to scan_script after a script edit. Existing audio is superseded by the new block split, so re-run generate_voiceover afterwards. Async — returns {job_id}.

Generate TTS audio for the project's voice blocks. Without voice_block_ids it fills gaps: only blocks with no audio yet run, so re-calling it is always safe (already-generated and currently-generating blocks are skipped, never re-billed). Pass voice_block_ids to explicitly REgenerate those blocks (e.g. after changing a block's voice). Speakers must have voices bound first — set

Plan the full visual storyboard: segments, shot pacing, image/video prompts, overlays, continuation chains — driven by the channel's director and art styles. Requires voiceover to exist (timing comes from it). BEFORE calling: confirm the project's asset_mix with your user (image vs video vs generated_graphic percentages, update_project) — the storyboard plans against it and vid

List the storyboard's segments (narration span, type, duration, creative direction). The 1-based segment_number is the handle every segment tool takes (update/split/combine/continuation/regenerate) — you never need a UUID. Each segment also reports continues_from_segment. When set, this shot is a CONTINUATION of that earlier segment: its rendered frame carries over (same com

List one segment's assets (images/video/overlays) including their status, config (prompts, model), and public URLs of rendered files — pass an image's public_url to view_image to actually look at it.

Regenerate a segment's primary image or video with optional overrides — the API equivalent of the editor's expert drawer. asset_type: "image" | "video" (for a video segment, "image" targets its start frame). Use a different model, override prompt sections (see get_section_template("segment_image")), or tweak settings (e.g. image quality), then re-run just this asset. Async — re

Change a segment's visual type: "image" | "video" | "overlay_scene". carry_frame=true reuses the already-rendered image as the video start frame (or vice versa) instead of recreating it.

Rewrite one segment's creative direction from feedback ("make this shot a close-up", "show the machine from above") — an LLM rewrites the shot's prompts; continuation links, SFX, and overlays are preserved. The visual assets reset to not_started: re-render them afterwards (generate_segments or regenerate_segment_asset). For a precise prompt tweak with no rewrite, use regenerate

Split a segment at the given time offsets (ms, 1-3 cuts → 2-4 parts). inherit_index picks which resulting part keeps the original creative data. Later segments renumber — re-check get_segments before further edits.

Merge a segment with an adjacent one (segment numbers must be neighbors). keep: "this" | "other" — whose creative data survives. Later segments renumber — re-check get_segments before further edits.

Make a segment's image render as a continuation of an EARLIER segment's frame (same composition evolving — the storyboard's continues_from_segment, settable after the fact). continues_from is that earlier segment's number; pass 0 to clear the link. Regenerate the segment's image afterwards — the reference is applied at generation time.

Attach a sound effect from the audio library to a segment (find track ids via browse_audio_library with category="sfx"). Re-run build_scenes to get it onto the timeline.

Remove a sound effect from a segment. With one SFX attached, no name needed; with several, pass sfx_name (the asset name shown by get_segment_assets).

Render every actionable segment asset (images, video clips, overlays) across the project, in dependency order. THE most expensive call in the pipeline: ALWAYS dry_run=true first, show your user the estimate next to get_credit_balance, and wait for a fresh yes before the real run — prior blanket permission ("do the whole thing") does not cover this spend. Pass segment_numbers to

Compile segments + assets + voiceover into the editor/render timeline (scenes). Run after segment assets are complete, before export.

List the project's scenes (composition layers, durations, layout).

Edit ONE scene with a natural-language note (the same director chat the editor UI uses): move/restyle/add/remove layers and overlays, retime, etc. Synchronous — returns the applied mutations + updated scene. Address the scene by project_id + segment_number (preferred — always resolves to the current scene) or by scene_id from a fresh list_scenes call. Scene durations are locked

Apply a project-WIDE director note ("make the intro punchier", "all captions bigger", "tighten pacing in the back half"). A routing pass picks only the scenes the note applies to and edits each one. Synchronous — a few seconds per affected scene. Returns the per-scene results; re-run export_video afterwards to see changes in the final render.

Render the final MP4 (Remotion). Fetches the current timeline and queues the render. Async — poll get_workflow_status for the video_export job, then call get_video_url.

Download URL for the most recent completed export.

List the channel's style rows (variable groups). Styles hold the art_style / narrative_style / director_style / script_prompt fields that drive every generation step, plus any custom @variables.

Fetch one style row — its inputs (reference material), analyzed fields (art_style, narrative_style, director_style, script_prompt, ...), and templates: {"character": url|null, "environment": url|null}, the two template images. A null there means that template is genuinely missing and needs generate_style_template; a URL means it exists (view_image it) — don't re-render it. Sh

Hand-edit a style's analyzed fields after reviewing them — e.g. tighten the art_style wording or adjust the director_style pacing rules. fields is the FULL flat dict to write: {key: {"value": str, "applies_to": [...]}} (fetch with get_style, modify, send back). Editing fields does NOT trigger re-analysis, so your edits stick.

The curated preset catalog for the no-AI style creation path, grouped by axis (art_style / narrative_style / director_style). Show the user the labels + descriptions and let THEM pick one per axis — don't choose silently. Art presets include preview image URLs (view_image works on them). Create with create_style(presets={axis: id, ...}) — instant, no analysis job. Full field te

No parameter schema on file.

Create a style. Two mutually exclusive paths: References (best): inputs=[{"input_type": "youtube" | "text", "value": "<url or description>"}] — YouTube videos are watched (a channel link or @handle resolves to that channel's newest usable upload) and text directions read; async analysis writes the style's art/narrative/director fields: await_jobs(style_id=...) before using the

Re-run style analysis (after changing a style's inputs). Async — await_jobs(style_id=...) until the style_analysis job completes.

Render one of a style's two template images — a REAL step of style setup, not an optional extra: a style isn't finished until both its character and environment templates are rendered (the app shows them on the style card). Asset reference images render against them (characters → character template; environments and objects → environment template), and segment renders fall back

Delete a style (e.g. a failed analysis experiment). Don't delete a style that projects still use as their default — rebind them first with set_project_style.

Register a BYOK provider API key (encrypted at rest, BYOK plan only). Jobs whose model belongs to this provider then run on YOUR key and charge 0 credits. Providers: openai, gemini, anthropic, fal, elevenlabs, minimax.

List registered BYOK providers (masked — only the last 4 characters).

No parameter schema on file.

Verify the connection: the account email and plan behind the current credential. Call once after connecting — before creating anything — to confirm you're on the right account; costs nothing.

No parameter schema on file.

Current credit balance + plan info. Check before expensive steps (a full segment render can cost hundreds of credits — generate_segments dry_run gives the estimate). Jobs covered by a BYOK provider key bill 0.

No parameter schema on file.

Browse the audio library for background music and sound effects. category: "music" | "sfx". Returns track ids for add_music_track / add_segment_sfx.

List the project's background music tracks (volume, loop, timing).

Add background music to the project from the audio library (find track ids with browse_audio_library, category="music"). Defaults loop the track under the whole video at bed level (volume 0.12 ≈ -18.4 dB under narration — don't raise it without being asked); re-run export_video to hear it.

Tweak a music track. fields keys: name, volume (0-1), loop, start_frame, duration_frames, position, trim_start_frame, trim_end_frame.

Remove a music track from the project.

Fetch a rendered Framesail image so you (and your user) can SEE it — pass a URL from get_segment_assets, get_style, or asset endpoints. Returns the image inline. Only Framesail media URLs are allowed.
