# OpenChatCut OpenChatCut is a local-first, agent-native video editor. This skill is the single external entry point; specialized editing guidance remains inside the running editor and is loaded on demand with `load_skill`. ## Route the task - Install, connect, or diagnose the MCP server: read `references/getting-started.md`. - Inspect or modify a project: read `references/editing-workflow.md`. - Recover from a failed tool call, stale session, or missing editor: read `references/known-errors.md`. ## Essentials 1.

Select a project only when the user names it or the current context identifies it. 3. Call `load_skill` before specialized work. It is read-only and requires neither `begin_edit_session` nor `editSessionId`; available names and support files come from the live MCP tool description. With progressive exposure enabled, this call reveals the skill's referenced tools and emits `tools/list_changed`; refresh the list before continuing. 4. Before project reads or edits, call `begin_edit_session`. Keep its `editSessionId` and pass it to every draft-safe editor tool. 5. If `begin_edit_session` reports an active session, call `list_edit_sessions`. An orphaned session may be resumed or discarded with `recover_edit_session` using an action listed in `recoveryActions`; an online owner ...
