Full 1:1 REST API coverage means no gaps — every operation available in the API is reachable from an AI assistant without workarounds.
When to use it
- Importing ARRIRAW footage from a shuttle drive into an active project
- Adjusting gamma and color grade on a specific shot by description
- Starting a ProRes 4444 render of the current timeline
- Navigating between projects and constructs without touching the GUI
- Taking frame snapshots during a review session
