Tools & capabilities

Levea MCP Server tools 25

  • autonomous_editPRIMARY EDIT TOOL. Run a natural-language video edit end-to-end. The backend agent plans, executes, verifies, and exports. Accepts anything from a one-liner ("generate 3 viral clips with captions and export") to a multi-paragraph creative brief. Returns the final mp4 URL synchronously when an export is queued. For long renders you may prefer queue_edit + check_job_status.
  • autonomous_edit_streamingSame as autonomous_edit but consumes the SSE event stream from the backend. Returns the final terminal result; per-step events (status, thinking, tool_call, tool_result, background_job_completed) are emitted as MCP progress notifications when the client supports them. Use for long-running briefs where users expect live progress.
  • queue_editFire-and-forget async path. Returns immediately with a `taskId`. Use when the edit may exceed the MCP request timeout (long viral-clip generation, multi-format export). Poll with check_task_status or get_active_task.
  • check_job_statusPoll an export / async job by jobId (numeric). Supports wait:true to block until terminal.
  • check_task_statusPoll a queued edit task by taskId (returned by queue_edit). Separate from job_id (exports).
  • get_active_taskFor a given project, return the currently-running edit task (if any). Useful for reconnecting MCP clients.
  • list_caption_templatesList the user's caption templates (builtin + saved). Returns slugs, display names, and style summaries.
  • apply_caption_templateApply a caption template to a scene synchronously (without going through autonomous_edit).
  • save_caption_templateSave a new caption template definition the user can re-apply later.
  • save_current_caption_templateSnapshot the caption styling currently applied to a project / scene as a reusable template.
  • delete_caption_templateDelete a user-saved caption template by id.
  • list_brand_kitsList the user's brand profiles (palette, fonts, logo, voice, gradeBias). Returns ids you pass to autonomous_edit's brandId / projectBrandId.
