## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (4)

Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask.

### `check_configuration`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check whether a Vivideo API key is present on this request. Call this FIRST. Returns { configured: boolean }. If false, ask the user to add an Authorization: Bearer vv_live_... header to the MCP server config (a key from https://app.vivideo.ai/account/api-keys). Never asks for or exposes the key.
```

### `create_auto_video`

- The name "create_auto_video" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a video in AUTO mode: Vivideo writes the script and produces a complete AI-avatar video from your prompt. Returns immediately with a video id and status "processing" (paid) or "preview" (free accounts — see the preview field and upgrade link). Then call wait_for_video or get_video. An Idempotency-Key is sent automatically so a retry never creates a duplicate. Rendering requires a premium plan and credits.
```

### `create_manual_video`

- The name "create_manual_video" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a video in MANUAL mode: send your prompt straight to a specific model (get ids/options from list_models). The operation is inferred from inputs — add image_url for image-to-video. resolution/duration/aspect_ratio must match the model (an invalid value returns a 400 listing what is allowed). Returns a video id and status; then wait_for_video or get_video. Idempotency handled automatically.
```

### `estimate_credits`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Estimate the credits a generation will cost, from the published per-model rates — BEFORE creating it. This is an estimate, not a charge; the exact amount is returned as credits_charged when you create the video. Use it with check_account to confirm the user can afford the request.
```

## Only reads (9)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `check_account`

- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the account plan, premium status, and remaining credit balance. Use this to decide whether the user can generate a video (rendering needs a premium plan and enough credits). Returns plan, premium, credits, free_video_available, and links (upgrade / buy_credits). Cheap and safe to call often.
```

### `get_video`

- The name "get_video" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a video's current status and result. status is one of queued | processing | completed | failed | preview. When completed, video_url is the MP4. When failed, credits are refunded and error explains why. Cheap; prefer wait_for_video for polling instead of calling this in a tight loop.
```

### `list_avatars`

- The name "list_avatars" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List available avatars for auto-mode videos (the stock catalogue plus the account's own avatars). Stock avatars are grouped by person, each with a `looks` array — pass a looks[].avatar_id (or an owned avatar's id) as `avatar_id` in create_auto_video. Use `search`/`limit` to keep responses small.
```

### `list_brand_kits`

- The name "list_brand_kits" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the account's brand kits (logo, colors, fonts, motion style). Returns brand_ref ids to pass as `brand_kit_id` in create_auto_video to produce an on-brand video.
```

### `list_models`

- The name "list_models" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the video models available for MANUAL mode plus the auto-generate pipeline (id "vivideo-auto"). Each model lists its operations, allowed durations, resolutions, aspect ratios, style presets and per-second credit rate — use these to build a valid create request. Filter with `mode` to keep the response small.
```

### `list_videos`

- The name "list_videos" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the account's videos, newest first. Filter by status and limit the count to keep responses small.
```

### `list_voices`

- The name "list_voices" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List available voices for auto-mode videos. Returns voice ids to pass as `voice_id` in create_auto_video. Filter by language/gender/search and cap with `limit`. Voice cloning is not available via the API.
```

### `render_preview`

- The name "render_preview" says "preview": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
For FREE accounts only: after the user upgrades, render a video that was returned as status "preview". Charges run on the same project (the first video after upgrading is free). If the video is already rendering/complete, returns its current state. If the account is still free, returns an upgrade_required error with an upgrade link.
```

### `wait_for_video`

- The name "wait_for_video" says "wait": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Wait for a video to reach a terminal state (completed / failed / preview), then return it. Polls safely at the API-suggested interval for up to ~20 seconds per call (HTTP requests are time-capped). If it does not finish in time it returns { timed_out: true } with the latest status — simply call it again with the same id to keep waiting. It never blocks indefinitely or over-polls.
```
