CutVoke open-sources an MCP server giving AI agents a real, editable video timeline

The author released CutVoke, an MIT-licensed local-first video editor whose MCP server and human UI work on the same persistent project — letting Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or any MCP client edit video directly.
Agent-facing design: compact command discovery; an editlock lease so agent edits don't collide with human dragging; commandpreview dry runs; edit.batch as a single undo; expectedRevision + stable commandId for consistent commits; previewframes returning real rendered PNGs (≤6 timestamps per call) so agents can visually verify captions; transcript-based cuts and async export.
No model inside — pure orchestration. The author asks whether lease + dry-run + revision is the right shape for stateful MCP tools.
