App-only wrapper over the full shared episode edit primitive used by the BitterClip editor and MCP Apps widget. It accepts the same occurrence operations as episode_edit plus metadata.set and typed identity operations. Occurrence operations still require expected_revision and settle through the exact same receipt-backed engine. The retired segment.insert, segment.update and segment.remove batches refuse on every entrance with program_occurrence_operation_required naming the occurrence operations. The editor-only gestures junction.roll (move one edit point by a signed delta_seconds, keeping duration), occurrence.insert (a source_id Recording slice at a destination Junction or point) and program.restore_recording (collapse a single-Recording Program to the whole Recording) settle as one receipt with an exact inverse; MCP callers, including connector tokens, are refused them. Hidden from the model picker.
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.
