  • generate_musicGenerate music using Suno via kie.ai. Supports V5.5 (custom style), V5 (best quality), V4.5+, V4.5, V4. Up to 8 minutes. Great for game music stems, ambient tracks, and jingles. Polls until done and downloads to kie/assets/raw/.
  • generate_sfxGenerate a sound effect from text via Suno V5 (kie.ai removed the ElevenLabs sound-effect model). Great for game sounds: UI clicks, magic spells, item pickups, explosions. For loop/BPM/key control use generate_sounds instead. Downloads to kie/assets/raw/.
  • generate_gemini_ttsNEW — Google Gemini native TTS via kie.ai: style-directed speech from natural-language direction, 30 named voices, up to 2 speakers, inline tone tags like [whispers]/[laughs] (flash model). ~4.2 credits per MINUTE of audio — cheaper than all ElevenLabs tiers. Simple mode: pass text (+ optional voice_name). Dialogue mode: pass speakers + dialogue_turns. model=flash is most expressive (keep expected audio <60s — quality degrades on long takes); model=pro is more stable for multi-minute narration. Downloads to kie/assets/raw/.

  • get_project_infoGet information about the currently open Premiere Pro project
  • list_project_itemsList all items in the project panel (clips, bins, sequences)
  • list_sequencesList all sequences in the project
  • get_active_sequenceGet bounded, paged information about the currently active sequence (50 clips by default). Follow pagination.nextOffset for more
  • list_sequence_tracksList all tracks (video and audio) in a sequence
  • get_clip_propertiesGet detailed properties of a specific clip by its node ID
  • find_project_item_by_nameFind a project item by name (searches recursively through bins)
  • get_sequence_settingsGet the settings (resolution, frame rate, etc.) of a sequence
  • get_selected_clipsGet the currently selected clips in the active sequence
  • get_clip_at_positionGet the clip at a specific time position on a track
  • save_projectSave the current Premiere Pro project to its existing path. Fails when the project has never been saved (use save_project_as) or when Premiere writes no non-empty file. Fresh disk metadata verifies a save; unchanged or unreadable metadata reports committed_unverified.
  • save_project_asSave the current project to a new .prproj path. Premiere then has the NEW copy open and closes the original, so later edits go to the copy; the result reports both paths. Fails when Premiere writes no file or leaves a pre-existing path unchanged. Use open_project to return to the original.
