# update_segment_content

Rewrite one segment's creative direction from feedback ("make this shot a close-up", "show the machine from above") — an LLM rewrites the shot's prompts; continuation links, SFX, and overlays are preserved. The visual assets reset to not_started: re-render them afterwards (generate_segments or regenerate_segment_asset). For a precise prompt tweak with no rewrite, use regenerate_segment_asset with editable_sections instead.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "update_segment_content",
    "arguments": {
      "project_id": "<project_id>",
      "user_input": "<user_input>",
      "segment_number": 0
    }
  }
}
```

## Why update_segment_content is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (the segment's creative direction and prompts) without irreversibly destroying information. It's a write operation because it updates segment content, though the visual assets must be regenerated afterward. It's not Destructive because the segment definition itself persists and can be modified again.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Rewrite one segment's creative direction' and 'LLM rewrites the shot's prompts'. This modifies existing segment content reversibly."

## Use case

AI agents use update_segment_content to create or update resources in Framesail, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Framesail environment.
