Read the evidence-backed Footage-session manifest. Returns source facts, typed observations, solve receipts, exact capture-time gaps and overlaps, source/capture/episode mappings, corrections, revision, uncertainty, and the next safe action. Capture time preserves real gaps; episode time collapses idle gaps after an explicit build.

The JSON blocks below are the exact MCP descriptor projections served by Rails for the named profiles at capture time. Security schemes and resource URIs may vary by connected host.
