## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `generate_video`

- The name "generate_video" says "generate": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Render a video from a text prompt using ViewMax Studio. Returns immediately with a job id; the clip is not ready yet.

Rendering takes roughly two to four minutes. Call `get_video` with the returned id to collect the result, waiting about 15 seconds between checks. Do not poll faster than that, and tell the user it is rendering rather than going silent while you wait.

Credits are charged to the account the API key belongs to, and refunded automatically if the render fails. Available models:
  - seedance-2-mini: Native audio and multi-shot cuts in one clip. Longest takes we offer. (4–15s, 480p/720p/1080p, with audio)
  - h3-max: Native 768p with no upscale pass. Fastest turnaround, up to 15s takes. (5–15s, 480p/768p, with audio)
  - h3-max-turbo: Half the price of H3 Max at the same sizes, and the quickest render we carry. (5–15s, 480p/768p, with audio)
  - viewmax-agent-2.0: Writes, cuts and scores a whole video from one brief, at any length you ask for. (15s and up, 720p, with audio)

Leave `model` unset to use the default. Call `list_video_models` if you need exact per-model limits or prices.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `get_credit_balance`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
How many ViewMax Studio credits the API key holder has left. Worth checking before booking an expensive render, since one that cannot be paid for is refused outright.
```

### `get_video`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Look up a render started by `generate_video`. While `status` is "pending" or "processing" the clip is still being made, so wait about 15 seconds and check again. When it is "completed" the result carries a public URL anyone can open, which you should hand the user directly. When it is "failed" the credits have already been refunded.
```

### `list_video_models`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Every video model on offer with its exact limits and credit prices: which lengths, resolutions and frame shapes it accepts, whether it renders audio, how long it takes, and what a second of output costs. Use it to choose a model on price or capability, or to quote a cost before rendering.
```
