Editor Captions

Requires

A running Scrollmark editor whose commands you can call: the SocialGPT editor chat, or scrollmark mcp from @scrollmark/cli for a coding agent. Without it the steps below can't run; the kit-by-vibe list is still a fair guide to choosing a caption look in any editor.

Pick the rhythm

• One word at a time (default): captions.applyRhythm with mode: "word".
• Three-word chunks, when the user wants chunks rather than single words: captions.applyRhythm with mode: "sequential" and wordsPerCaption: 3.

Never phrase (8-word lines), never phrase-plus-word (an extra word track), and never captions_generate: it makes sequential chunks without the rhythm you chose.

Steps

After the recut, or on a timeline that already has the keep list:

1. The rhythm op above, then captions.applyPreset with kitId, size and placement: as two ops in one timeline_applyPlan, or as captions_applyRhythm and captions_applyPreset outside a plan.
2. Pick one kitId from this set. Choose from the footage (transcript, setting, what they are selling). Do not call captions_listPresets just to browse.
