Adds a new chapter marker to the file currently being recorded
AI agents use obs-create-record-chapter to create or update resources in OBS MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your OBS MCP Server environment.
This tool creates a new chapter marker, which modifies the structure and metadata of the recording file in a reversible manner. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, move money, or trigger external operations with unpredictable effects. The impact is localized to marking a point in the recording timeline.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'obs-create-record-chapter' and description 'Adds a new chapter marker to the file currently being recorded' — the verb 'Adds' indicates creation/modification of metadata on the active recording file.

"tools": {
"obs-create-record-chapter": {

"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
