Premiere Pro MCP Server

Search Project Context

search_project_context
Read-onlyIdempotent

Search a durable Premiere Pro project-context index for relevant sources, timeline placements, transcripts, shots, and audio notes, returning bounded evidence with stable IDs and revisions.

Instructions

Search a durable Premiere project-context index for relevant sources, timeline placements, transcript passages, shots, audio observations, and notes. Returns bounded evidence with stable IDs and revisions; it never changes Premiere.

TDQS

A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so 'never changes Premiere' largely restates structured data. The description does add genuine behavioral context beyond the annotations: results are 'bounded evidence with stable IDs and revisions', which tells the agent the output is size-limited and referenceable. That is useful but thin.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Two sentences, zero filler, and the primary action is front-loaded. The 'never changes Premiere' clause is somewhat redundant with the annotations, keeping it just short of a 5.

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?

With an output schema present the description need not explain return values, and annotations cover the safety profile, so the remaining burden is small. It adequately covers what is searched and the bounded/ID-bearing nature of results, though it omits the prerequisite relationship with the context-capture tool.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100% and the schema documents all five parameters (kinds, query, project_id, max_results, sequence_id) including defaults and bounds, so the description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond it. Baseline 3 applies when the schema does the heavy lifting.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb (Search) and resource (durable Premiere project-context index) and enumerates the indexed evidence types, so the agent knows exactly what is being searched. It does not explicitly distinguish itself from the sibling manage_project_context (the capture side), so it falls short of full sibling differentiation.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied by 'durable ... index' and the query parameter, but there is no explicit when-to-use statement, no exclusion, and no pointer to the capture tool that produces the project_id this tool requires. The agent must infer that it should call manage_project_context first.

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