Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_jobsA | List recent video jobs for the current organization (newest first). Start here to discover job IDs; for one job's full detail use get_job_status. |
| get_job_statusA | Get detailed status for a job: runs, artifacts, verifications, plus the current video and thumbnail URLs. The main polling target after create_video_brief or edit_video_brief; for post-publish engagement numbers use get_job_metrics instead. |
| get_video_stateA | Get the materialized video state for a job (composition decisions: scenes, duration, aspect ratio, etc.). Use it to inspect what the video contains; for pipeline progress and video URLs use get_job_status. |
| get_job_metricsA | Get the latest platform engagement metric snapshots for a published job (newest first). Read-only. Only meaningful after publish_job; for render progress use get_job_status. |
| get_cost_summaryA | Query production infrastructure costs (Lambda, RunPod, R2, WaveSpeed, PoYo), optionally with reconciliation drift. This is spend data, not engagement — for a published job's audience numbers use get_job_metrics. |
| create_video_briefA | Create a new video job from a structured brief and trigger the render pipeline. Returns the job and run IDs immediately; rendering continues asynchronously (typically a few minutes) — poll get_job_status until draft_ready. Requires a key with write scope. To change an existing job, use edit_video_brief instead of creating a duplicate. |
| edit_video_briefA | Edit an existing job's brief (only provided fields change). Changing the script, caption, title, lessonTitle, objective, steps, scenes, aspectRatio or voiceId triggers a re-render and returns the new run ID; objective also re-routes the composition. Changing only publishTarget updates the job's target platform without re-rendering. For a brand-new video use create_video_brief. |
| approve_jobA | Approve a rendered job so it becomes publishable (draft_ready/awaiting_review/needs_changes -> approved) and revoke active review links. Required before publish_job will accept the job. |
| publish_jobA | Publish an APPROVED job to its connected social destination via the gated publish API. All production gates run (paid plan, ownership, abuse, QA, disclosure, destination, rights, moderation). Requires a key with publish scope; the post goes live on the external platform and cannot be recalled by the API. For YouTube pass youtubePrivacyStatus:'private' for safe runs. |
| connect_accountA | Start connecting a social account headlessly (no local browser needed). Returns an approve URL + a short confirm code: open the URL in a browser signed in to Instavar, check the code matches THIS terminal, and approve. Then poll connect_account_status with the returned pairingId until it reports 'connected'. |
| connect_account_statusA | Poll a pending account connection started by connect_account. Returns status 'pending' | 'connected' | 'expired', plus the connected account label once connected. |
