## MCP tools (7)

### `interpret_brief` (~68 tokens)

Paste a brand's UGC brief. Returns detected deliverables/specs/usage/disclosure, red flags (unlimited revisions, perpetual usage, spec work, raw-file grabs), and the exact questions to confirm in writing before agreeing.

Input parameters:

- `brief` (string, required): The full brand brief text

### `get_brief_checklist` (~54 tokens)

The 10-point checklist every UGC brief must answer before you shoot: deliverables, usage, exclusivity, revisions, raw-vs-edited, specs, hooks, talking points, timeline, brand assets.

### `get_ugc_formats` (~60 tokens)

Input parameters:

- `format` (string)

### `build_shot_list` (~79 tokens)

Given a UGC format, returns a beat-by-beat shot list template with coverage rules (shoot the hook 3 ways, get product close-up + in-use wide + reaction). Formats: testimonial, problem_solution, unboxing, demo_tutorial, get_ready_with_me, comparison, hook_test_pack.

Input parameters:

- `format` (string, required)

### `scope_deliverables` (~55 tokens)

Turn a vague ask into a defined deliverable list. Returns the exact fields to lock (count, format, length, aspect, revisions, raw-vs-edited, usage window) so nothing is left open to interpretation.
