transcription_add_captions_to_timeline

Add caption text elements to the timeline from segments

Part of the Opencut Controller MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents use transcription_add_captions_to_timeline to create or modify resources in Opencut Controller. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call transcription_add_captions_to_timeline repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Opencut Controller.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the transcription_add_captions_to_timeline tool do? +

Add caption text elements to the timeline from segments. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Opencut Controller MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on transcription_add_captions_to_timeline? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for transcription_add_captions_to_timeline. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Opencut Controller MCP server.

What risk level is transcription_add_captions_to_timeline? +

transcription_add_captions_to_timeline is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit transcription_add_captions_to_timeline? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the transcription_add_captions_to_timeline rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block transcription_add_captions_to_timeline completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for transcription_add_captions_to_timeline. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides transcription_add_captions_to_timeline? +

transcription_add_captions_to_timeline is provided by the Opencut Controller MCP server (opencut-controller). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
