Implementation Reference

• src/bridge/index.ts:199-217 (handler)

  Core handler in PremiereProBridge that executes ExtendScript to open the project document in Premiere Pro and returns structured project information.

  async openProject(path: string): Promise<PremiereProProject> {
    const script = `
      // Open existing project
      app.openDocument("${path}");
      var project = app.project;
      
      // Return project info
      JSON.stringify({
        id: project.documentID,
        name: project.name,
        path: project.path,
        isOpen: true,
        sequences: [],
        projectItems: []
      });
    `;
    
    return await this.executeScript(script);
  }

• src/tools/index.ts:66-71 (registration)

  Tool registration in getAvailableTools() array, including name, description, and input schema using Zod.

    name: 'open_project',
    description: 'Opens an existing Adobe Premiere Pro project from a specified file path.',
    inputSchema: z.object({
      path: z.string().describe('The absolute path to the .prproj file to open')
    })
  },

• src/tools/index.ts:438-440 (handler)

  Dispatch handler in executeTool switch statement that invokes the openProject wrapper for the 'open_project' tool.

  case 'open_project':
    return await this.openProject(args.path);
  case 'save_project':

• src/tools/index.ts:760-775 (handler)

  Wrapper handler in PremiereProTools that calls the bridge handler, handles errors, and formats the standardized response.

  private async openProject(path: string): Promise<any> {
    try {
      const result = await this.bridge.openProject(path);
      return {
        success: true,
        message: `Project opened successfully`,
        projectPath: path,
        ...result
      };
    } catch (error) {
      return {
        success: false,
        error: `Failed to open project: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`
      };
    }
  }
