# Yaps Auto Captions
Use the existing Yaps MCP tools. Do not invent CLI commands or use a hosted captioning service as a fallback.
1. Check the exact source with `captions_verify` and inspect templates with `captions_styles`.
2. Create an editable project with `captions_create`. Use the returned project ID for subsequent actions.
3. Inspect `captions_show`. Apply requested edits with `captions_correct`, `captions_replace`, `captions_split`, `captions_merge`, or `captions_set_style`. Preserve the spoken wording unless the user asks for a correction. `captions_reset` discards edits, so use it only after explicit approval.
4. Render with `captions_render` to a separate `.mp4`, then verify the result with `captions_verify`. Never target the source. Only set `overwrite: true` after approval to replace the exact existing output.
Return a link to the captioned video. A saved caption project is not a completed video export. Use the transcribe skill for plain text and srt-generator for a separate `.srt` file.
## Reachability
Call `yaps_status` when a tool reports a problem. If it returns `local_yaps_unreachable`, `cli_missing`, or equivalent, the current session cannot see the Yaps engine. Do not claim Yaps is uninstalled. Offer [Download Yaps](https://yaps.ai/download), ask the user to open Yaps, and retry from a local session on the same computer. Only use `yaps_enable_feature` to install a model after the user requests it.
