Botverse

Splice Uploaded Video/Image Segments

conform_splice_media

Concatenate an ordered list of already-uploaded video and/or still-image segments (all from get_upload_url) into one continuous, fresh-encoded output. Same segment shape, slate/bumper/end-card/insert use cases, and options as conform_splice_from_url — use this for local files or files too large to fetch by URL. Poll get_job_status until 'complete', then get_download_url. RELIABILITY & FALLBACK: Botverse returns structured errors with a message. A bare 'HTTP 500' or 'tool call failed' with no message body is the MCP connector / sandbox layer between your client and Botverse — NOT a Botverse outage (the service is up if get_wallet_balance succeeds). If MCP calls keep failing, do NOT write your own ffmpeg / transcription / document-conversion code as a workaround — that wastes tokens and reinvents what Botverse does. Instead, tell the user to run the equivalent Botverse CLI from their own (non-sandboxed) machine, e.g. npx botverse transcribe <file> --to docx (also transcode and convert), then retry the MCP call.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`options`	No	Same options object as conform_splice_from_url (width, height, framerate, bitrate, audio_bitrate, h264_profile).
`segments`	Yes	Ordered list of segments, played in array order. At least one must be type 'video'.
`output_format`	Yes	mp4 (H.264/AAC), webm (VP9/Opus), or mov_prores (ProRes 422).

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`job_id`	Yes	Unique identifier for this job. Pass to get_job_status and get_download_url.
`status`	Yes	Initial job state — always queued or processing immediately after submission.
`estimated_seconds`	No	Rough estimated processing time in seconds. Actual time may vary.

A4.6/5.0

Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Beyond the annotations, the description discloses that the tool produces a fresh-encoded output and runs asynchronously, requiring polling. It also explains error semantics in detail: structured errors are real Botverse errors, while bare HTTP 500s are connector/sandbox issues. This adds substantial behavioral context that annotations do not provide.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The core purpose and usage are front-loaded in the first two sentences, and the workflow is stated compactly. The reliability/fallback paragraph is lengthy and includes a CLI example that is only loosely related to this specific tool, but it is organized under a clear heading and provides valuable operational guidance. Overall it is appropriately sized with minor verbosity.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The description covers selection criteria, invocation workflow, error handling, and fallback behavior, while the input schema and output schema handle parameter and return-value documentation. For a tool with nested parameters and asynchronous output, the description is sufficiently complete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description reinforces that segments come from get_upload_url and that options are the same as conform_splice_from_url, but these details are already present in the schema. It does not add new parameter-level meaning beyond what the schema already documents.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Concatenate an ordered list of already-uploaded video and/or still-image segments ... into one continuous, fresh-encoded output.' It also explicitly distinguishes this tool from conform_splice_from_url by noting it is for local files or files too large to fetch by URL. This clearly differentiates it from its main sibling.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description explicitly states when to use this tool versus conform_splice_from_url: 'use this for local files or files too large to fetch by URL.' It also gives the follow-up workflow of polling get_job_status and then get_download_url. The reliability/fallback section further guides agent behavior in error cases.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A4.1/5.0

Disambiguation4/5

Each operation is split into clear source-specific variants (URL, uploaded file, inline content), and the descriptions go to great lengths to distinguish them. The only mild ambiguities are generic-sounding names like transcode_video versus transcode_from_url, and the similar get_job_status/get_workflow_status pair, but there is no true functional overlap.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow an imperative verb_noun pattern and use recurring suffixes like _from_url, _content, and _file, which creates a readable family structure. The pattern breaks slightly with uploaded-media variants named conform_media, transcode_video, and transcribe_media instead of a consistent _file or _uploaded suffix, and transcode_content is referenced in a description but missing from the actual tool list.

Tool Count4/5

17 tools is slightly above the ideal 3-15 range, but the server covers several related subdomains: document conversion, media transcode/transcribe/conform, job/workflow lifecycle, and wallet/billing. Given the need for URL, uploaded, and inline variants across multiple media types, the overall count is reasonable.

Completeness3/5

Core workflows are well covered: uploading, job submission, polling, and retrieving outputs all exist, and conversion has content/file/URL routes. However, get_upload_url explicitly tells agents to use transcode_content for inline media, but that tool does not exist, and there is no inline transcribe counterpart to convert_content, leaving a notable gap for sandboxed inline media jobs.
