Tools not in Vidova MCP

Retired and advertised-but-unreachable names. Do not call web_research, vidova_set_cursor, or generate_asset kinds music and video.

View as Markdown

Agents invent tools that used to exist in the in-app agent, or that MCP still lists but the renderer does not run. This page is the stop list.

Advertised, not reachable

generate_asset advertises kind values music and video. The renderer only wires image, speech, and status. Those music and video calls fail.

Never an MCP tool

vidova_set_cursor is not published. Set the cursor with timeline_edit updateClip and vidovaSettings.cursorStyle.

type=text is not a supported way to add titles. Use component then addClip type component.

Retired renderer tools

These remain in source with retired: true. MCP listTools omits them. executeTool treats them as absent.

indexVideoAsset / searchVideoAsset
analyzeAsset
detectObjects
locateInPreview
understandVideoMoment
analyzeVideo
trackObjects
backgroundJob
mediaEffect
webResearch (do not call web_research)
detectBeatGrid (do not invent beat times to pass snapTo)
loadSkill / manageSkill

Skills text may still mention a retired name. The MCP catalog wins. If a skill says manageSkill or detectBeatGrid, skip it.

Published catalog

The only local MCP names are listed in Tools. If a name is not on that page, do not call it.
