## Quality 94/100 (strong)

### protocol: 100 (weight 25)

- pass `protocol.modern`: supports 2026-07-28 (server/discover)
- pass `protocol.stateless`: answers without a session
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- pass `protocol.list_ttl`: tool list is cacheable (ttlMs 3600000)

### authorization: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `auth.prm`, `auth.as_metadata`, `auth.cimd`: no remote uses OAuth
- n/a `auth.secret_in_url`: no templated URL

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- pass `tools.description_length`: descriptions are concise
- pass `tools.schemas`: every tool has an object input schema
- pass `tools.annotations`: 4 of 4 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: inspect_file (idempotentHint); list_converters (idempotentHint); convert_file (idempotentHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,125 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 100 (weight 15)

- pass `stability.changes`: 3 tool changes in 30 days
- pass `stability.rug_pull`: no tool changed its meaning under the same name

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

## Tools (4)

- `convert_file`: Convert a subtitle, transcript, caption, EDL, FCPXML, or Premiere .prtranscript file. Pass text file contents in `content`; pass binary files (.prtranscript) as base64 in `content_base64`. The filename extension drives format detection. Use `target` from list_converters to pick the output, or leave it as "auto" to get the default output for the detected format. Returns the converted file content (text formats inline; DOCX/ZIP as base64).
- `inspect_file`: Detect the format of a subtitle/transcript/EDL/FCPXML file and report what CutConvert would produce from it, without performing the conversion or using quota.
- `list_converters`: List every conversion CutConvert supports (source format, output format, and the target id to pass to convert_file).
- `timecode_calculate`: Parse an SMPTE timecode at a frame rate (including 29.97/59.94 drop-frame) and report its frame count and real elapsed seconds; optionally re-express it at another rate.
