Editor Versions

Requires

A running Scrollmark editor whose commands you can call: the SocialGPT editor chat, or scrollmark mcp from @scrollmark/cli for a coding agent. The editor keeps several sequences (versions of the timeline) per project, sharing its media. Without it, the choice between one result, options in chat and separate versions still applies.

Choose how to answer

Most requests are one clear edit: make it, once. Do not offer options for a cut, a trim, a move, a fix, or anything the user specified exactly.

• Options in chat for a choice that is quick to try and quick to undo: a caption style or font, a voice, a title's wording, a colour. When the user asks "what options are there?" or "recommend one", list 3, at most 4, each one line with what makes it different, recommend one, and change nothing until they pick. When they ask for the change itself ("make the captions more fun"), apply your best pick and name 2 alternatives in one line.
• Separate versions for a choice that is slow to redo or that the user should watch side by side:
  • length or pacing (a 30 s cut and a 60 s cut)
  • the hook or opening
  • the music bed together with the pacing cut to it
  • a whole restyle ("make it cinematic", a new look or grade)
  • the user asked for versions, or to compare
  • the user rejected your last attempt at the same thing ("I don't like this music", "now it's too dark"): make the next try a version, so the one before is still there
• Keep the original before a restyle. Make a change to the whole look, style or pacing of a timeline the user has worked on as a new version, so "put it back" is a switch, not an undo through many steps.
