Connect an MCP-capable coding agent to OpenChatCut and edit local video projects. Use when the user asks to install, connect, or set up OpenChatCut; inspect or edit an OpenChatCut project; work with its timeline, transcript, captions, media, generation, motion graphics, audio, color, or export tools; or recover from an OpenChatCut MCP error.
Use when acquiring or importing media into a OpenChatCut project asset library for video editing or creation, including local/attached videos, user-provided paths, public media URLs, web video/audio/image assets, upload fallback decisions, and deciding between import_media, download_media, or manual user action.
Use whenever the agent needs to add, create, hand-author, patch, or place Motion Graphic JSX assets in a OpenChatCut project. This is the direct-authoring path: use create_motion_graphic_from_code / edit_asset / edit_item, not motion-graphic-gen or submit_motion_graphic. Covers project/timeline intake, project visual language, editable properties, asset binding, inline JSX authoring, existing asset updates, timeline placement, and verification.
Create finished explainer videos from a topic, script, outline, voiceover, product logic, data, technical concept, course material, or reference assets. Use when the user wants narration, motion graphics, stock footage, generated visuals, or mixed visuals to explain an idea.
Use when a OpenChatCut video editing or creation workflow needs export, render, download, share, final delivery, subtitle-file export, render choice, local-only asset handling, or export fallback explanation.
Cut an imported livestream recording of any genre into evidence-backed, platform-ready clips by combining transcript, visual, audio, interaction, and domain-specific signals. Use for commerce, gaming, talk, interview, education, entertainment, sports, music, IRL, creative, news, or mixed livestream recordings.
Cut one long podcast, interview, course, livestream, or other source video into social-ready shorts, reels, highlights, or clip timelines from existing project media. Use when the user asks to cut a long video into Shorts, Reels, TikToks, Xiaohongshu posts, best moments, highlights, or multiple clips.
Add motion graphics at the right moments without blocking the story. Use when the user wants to enhance talking-head, lecture, tutorial, interview, podcast, or creator videos with motion graphics.
Turn multiple product shots, event footage, travel clips, gameplay moments, UGC/product footage, B-roll, or mixed media into social-ready reels, highlights, recaps, or montage-style short videos from existing project media.
新闻素材智能粗剪——把新闻素材粗剪为一条内容完整、逻辑清晰、节奏紧凑的新闻短视频。Use when the user asks to 粗剪新闻、新闻剪辑、把新闻素材剪成短视频、智能粗剪、news rough cut、编辑新闻视频, or provides news footage (发布会/采访/现场/监控素材) to be cut into a factual news short. Never add music, voiceover, or sound effects.
Use for video editing or video creation work that should be editable in OpenChatCut, even when the user does not explicitly mention OpenChatCut. Covers local/attached video editing, captions/subtitles, transcription, trimming, talking-head cleanup, highlights, B-roll, overlays, generation, export, project/editor opening, importing, targeting, verifying, watching, and identifying the active OpenChatCut project/editor URL.
Create or improve OpenChatCut custom skills. Use whenever the user asks to create a skill, capture a workflow as a skill, write a SKILL.md, add a reusable workflow, 创建技能, 把流程做成技能, 写一个技能, or improve an existing custom skill. Pushy: treat any workflow the user repeats as a skill candidate, even if they do not say "skill".
Break down each shot and turn the analysis into a storyboard reference. Use when the user wants shot-by-shot film analysis, director logic, cinematography breakdown, or a storyboard-style reference from a video.
Use when a video/audio task needs OpenChatCut transcription, captions, subtitles, subtitle styling, transcript search, transcript readiness checks, or enabling captions, including local or attached videos where the user asks to add captions/subtitles, transcribe, create bilingual subtitles, clean talking-head speech, remove filler words, or trim pauses.
Use when checking whether agent edits are reflected in the OpenChatCut project and editor.
