What's New

Transcript Editor

Text-based video editing inside Final Cut Pro:

  • Speech transcription of timeline audio with word-level timestamps
  • Click a word to jump the playhead to that moment
  • Delete words to remove the corresponding video segments (ripple delete)
  • Drag and drop words to reorder clips on the timeline
  • Auto re-transcribes after edits to keep timestamps synced

UI Integration

  • Toolbar button in FCP's toolbar (next to existing buttons)
  • FCPBridge menu in the menu bar
  • Ctrl+Option+T keyboard shortcut
  • Spacebar/JKL transport keys work while transcript panel has focus

Patcher App

  • Fully self-contained — sources embedded in app bundle, no git required
  • Auto-installs Xcode CLT if missing
  • Works from Downloads folder — no App Translocation issues
  • Signed and notarized with Developer ID

Fixes

  • Fixed shutdown hang caused by PCUserDefaultsMigrator
  • Non-blocking server for clean exit on Cmd+Q

MCP Tools
