Premiere Pro MCP Server

Verify Premiere Connection

verify_premiere_connection
Read-onlyIdempotent

Run a safe, read-only first-run check to confirm the MCP server, selected Premiere bridge, active project, and active sequence are connected without exposing project names, paths, or media details.

Instructions

Run a safe, read-only first-run check. It proves that this MCP server, the selected Premiere bridge, an active project, and an active sequence are connected without returning project names, paths, or media details.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint false, and openWorldHint false. The description adds meaningful behavioral context beyond those annotations: the check never returns project names, paths, or media details, and it verifies connectivity without exposing sensitive data.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Two tightly written sentences with no wasted words. The purpose is front-loaded, and the second sentence adds the key behavioral guarantee about what is not returned.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple read-only verification tool with rich annotations, full schema coverage, and an output schema, the description is complete. It covers purpose, safety, and the privacy constraint without needing to explain return values.

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 single backend parameter is fully documented in the schema, including its default and the fact that this check never falls back to a different bridge. The description adds no parameter-level semantics beyond that, so the baseline 3 is appropriate.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description states a specific verb and resource: it verifies that the MCP server, selected Premiere bridge, active project, and active sequence are connected. The phrase 'first-run check' and the privacy constraint help distinguish it from broader state or capability tools in the sibling list.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It clearly establishes the context for use as a safe, read-only first-run connection check. It does not explicitly name alternatives such as get_capabilities or ping, nor state when not to use it, but the intended usage is unambiguous.

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