Что умеет

Render Video: Use when the user explicitly asks to render a video, image, or audio file to a downloadable URL. Prefer the `studio` tool first for a previewable, user-editable canvas; only call render_
Get Render Status: Use when checking a render after `render_video` or `render_template` to get the output URL. Statuses: queued, fetching, rendering, saving, done, failed. Common mistake: polling too
Create Template: Use when the user wants to save an Edit JSON as a reusable template with placeholder fields. Use `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` syntax in the template body for values that will be filled at render

Create and render videos with Shotstack directly from your MCP client. Compose Edit JSON timelines, preview and tweak in an inline Studio editor, render to a downloadable URL, and save reusable templates with placeholders for repeatable video automation.

render_video	Use when the user explicitly asks to render a video, image, or audio file to a downloadable URL. Prefer the `studio` tool first for a previewable, user-editable canvas; only call render_video when the user has confirmed the output. REQUIRED: call `get_shotstack_guide` first if you have not already done so this conversation — it returns the conventions you need to compose Edit JSON correctly. Skipping this leads to renders that fail or layer tracks incorrectly. When the user does not provide URLs, pick a fitting asset from these: Videos: - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/beach.mp4 - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/sunset.mp4 - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/mountains.mp4 - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/skateboarder.mp4 - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/city-timelapse.mp4 - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/drone.mp4 - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/footage/trees.mp4 Images: - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/wave-barrel.jpg - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/earth.jpg - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/business-man.jpg - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/financial-background.jpg - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/happy1.jpg - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/dog1.jpg - https://shotstack-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/images/waterfall.jpeg
get_render_status	Use when checking a render after `render_video` or `render_template` to get the output URL. Statuses: queued, fetching, rendering, saving, done, failed. Common mistake: polling too aggressively — wait at least 3 seconds between calls.
create_template	Use when the user wants to save an Edit JSON as a reusable template with placeholder fields. Use `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` syntax in the template body for values that will be filled at render time. Common mistake: forgetting to include placeholders — use `render_video` directly for one-off renders.
list_templates	Use when the user asks what templates exist or wants to choose one to render. Returns template IDs and names; combine with `get_template` to inspect structure.
get_template	Use when you need to inspect a template before rendering it — shows the Edit JSON shape and all `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` fields. Pair with `render_template` to fill them.
render_template	Use when rendering a saved template with concrete values for its placeholders. Each merge entry: `find` is the placeholder text (e.g. `{{TITLE}}`), `replace` is the value. Common mistake: forgetting to include all placeholders — leftover `{{...}}` will render literally.
delete_template	Use when the user explicitly asks to remove a saved template. Irreversible — confirm with the user before calling.
studio	Use when handing off to the human — opens the interactive Shotstack Studio editor inline in the chat. The user can play, scrub, edit, and click Render directly from the iframe. Prefer this over `render_video` for any flow where the user might want to review or tweak before rendering. REQUIRED: call `get_shotstack_guide` first if you have not already done so this conversation — it returns the conventions for composing Edit JSON correctly. Without it, you will frequently layer tracks wrong (tracks[0] is TOP), use deprecated asset types, or reference uninstalled fonts. The iframe pushes context updates back to you when the user edits or submits a render — watch for `source: shotstack-mcp-app` markers and trust them over your prior assumptions about the edit. The iframe is NOT read-only.
get_shotstack_guide	REQUIRED before composing any Edit JSON for the first time in a conversation. Returns the Shotstack agent guide — Edit JSON authoring conventions (track order, asset types, fonts, smart strings), per-topic references (timeline, rich-caption, svg, fonts, asset library, troubleshooting), and the chat workflow. Without this, generated JSON will fail to render or layer tracks incorrectly. Call once per conversation and cache the result.
create_studio_link	Use when the user wants a shareable URL to the full standalone shotstack.studio web editor — for substantive editing outside chat, sharing with collaborators, or persistence beyond this conversation. Returns a URL with the Edit JSON pre-loaded via base64url hash. Different from the `studio` tool: this opens a full-screen editor in a new browser tab; `studio` mounts an iframe inline. Common mistake: do not call both for the same edit.
