Add music track

add_music_track

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.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
loopNoTrue loops the track under the whole video; false plays it once
nameNoDisplay name for the track on the project's timelineMusic
volumeNoPlayback volume 0-1; the 0.12 default sits at bed level under narration — don't raise it unless asked
project_idYesProject ID, as returned by create_project or list_projects
start_frameNoTimeline frame at which the track starts (0 = start of the video)
library_track_idYesAudio library track ID, from browse_audio_library(category="music")

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond annotations (readOnlyHint=false, etc.), the description adds key behaviors: default loop and volume with dB equivalent, bed level under narration, and the need to re-run export_video to hear. It includes a warning not to raise volume without being asked.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is extremely concise: two sentences that front-load the action and prerequisite, then explain defaults and side effects. No unnecessary words.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the tool's simplicity and no output schema, the description covers the essential usage: what it does, defaults, and the need to export to hear. It lacks details on error conditions or adding multiple tracks, but overall provides sufficient context for correct invocation.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds significant meaning: explains the default volume as bed level with dB conversion, clarifies the loop behavior, and ties library_track_id to browse_audio_library. This enriches the schema descriptions.

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 clearly states the verb 'Add' and the resource 'background music to the project', with a direct link to browse_audio_library for finding track IDs. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like remove_music_track and update_music_track by its action.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It provides a prerequisite (find track IDs with browse_audio_library) and practical tips (default loop and volume, re-run export_video to hear). However, it does not explicitly contrast with alternatives like update_music_track or when not to use this tool.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Several tool families overlap in purpose, such as await_jobs/get_workflow_status/get_pipeline_progress, update_segment_content/update_segment_prompts, director_note/project_director_note, and scan_script/rescan_voice_blocks. The descriptions do a good job distinguishing them, but an agent must read carefully to avoid misselection, and there are more than a couple of confusable pairs.

Naming Consistency4/5

The set overwhelmingly follows a verb_noun snake_case convention with clear prefixes like get_, list_, set_, update_, create_, and delete_. Minor exceptions such as director_note, project_director_note, browse_audio_library, and whoami keep it from being perfectly consistent.

Tool Count1/5

At 72 tools, this is far beyond the 50+ extreme range and creates a heavy navigation burden for an agent. Even though the pipeline is complex, this many tools is not well-scoped for an MCP surface.

Completeness4/5

The surface covers the full script-to-export pipeline: styles, assets, voices, storyboards, segments, scenes, and rendering all have substantial lifecycle support. Some gaps exist—no delete_channel, delete_segment, delete_voice_block, or delete_provider_key—but most missing operations can be worked around through existing tools.
