Implementation Reference
- mcp-server.js:479-524 (handler)The main handler function for the 'get_timeline_structure' tool. It fetches the timeline structure data from a local HTTP API (localhost:3001), processes video and audio tracks into a formatted text response, and handles errors.
async getTimelineStructure() { try { const response = await fetch('http://localhost:3001/api/timeline-structure'); if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`HTTP ${response.status}: ${response.statusText}`); const data = await response.json(); if (data.error) { return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `⚠️ ${data.error}`, }, ], }; } const videoTracks = data.video_tracks.map(track => ` • V${track.track_index}: ${track.track_name} ${track.is_locked ? '🔒' : ''} ${track.is_visible ? '👁️' : '🙈'} (${track.blend_mode})` ).join('\n'); const audioTracks = data.audio_tracks.map(track => ` • A${track.track_index}: ${track.track_name} ${track.is_locked ? '🔒' : ''} ${track.is_muted ? '🔇' : '🔊'} ${track.is_solo ? '🎯' : ''} (Vol: ${track.volume}dB, Pan: ${track.pan})` ).join('\n'); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `🎬 **Timeline Structure: ${data.sequence_name}**\n\n**Video Tracks:**\n${videoTracks}\n\n**Audio Tracks:**\n${audioTracks}`, }, ], }; } catch (error) { return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `❌ **Failed to get timeline structure**\n\nError: ${error.message}`, }, ], isError: true, }; } } - mcp-server.js:74-82 (schema)The tool schema definition including name, description, and empty input schema (no parameters required), provided in the ListTools response.
{ name: "get_timeline_structure", description: "Get the track structure of the active sequence", inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: {}, required: [] } }, - mcp-server.js:234-235 (registration)The switch case in the CallToolRequestHandler that registers and dispatches calls to the getTimelineStructure handler method.
