Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_stylesA | The 10 Cuecaps caption styles: the id to pass as style, the name, and how each one looks. |
| studio_linkB | A Cuecaps studio link that opens set up with these settings. The user drops in their video and exports in the browser. Works on every plan, with no key. |
| account_statusA | The Cuecaps plan behind the key: cloud minutes left this period, the date they reset, and whether it includes agent captioning. |
| transcribeC | Every word of a local video or audio file with its start and end time in seconds, plus the SRT text and the engine used. Writes no file. Creator and Pro. |
| caption_videoA | Captions a local video or audio file with the Cuecaps studio's own renderer in headless Chrome or Edge, and writes .captions. next to it: an MP4 with the captions burned in, a transparent MOV or WebM overlay, or SRT or VTT subtitles. The video stays on this machine. Returns the file, its duration in seconds, the engine used, the cloud minutes used and a studio link to fine-tune words and style. Creator and Pro. |

Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: listing styles, generating a studio link, checking account status, captioning a file, and transcribing a file. The boundary between caption_video and transcribe is well-defined by output (file vs. word timings only).
Names mix patterns: verb_noun (list_styles, caption_video), noun_noun (studio_link, account_status), and a bare verb (transcribe). The set is still readable, but there is no single predictable convention.
Five tools is a well-scoped set for a captioning service, with each tool covering a necessary part of the workflow without excess.
The surface covers style discovery, account checks, transcription, caption file generation, and a studio link for editing. Minor gaps exist, such as no direct tool for listing supported output formats or engines, but core workflows are complete.
