Effect: write (strongest supported action). Status: gated.

Gated means the tool requires an installed app, a connected account, permission, or runtime availability. Check those requirements on the listed platform before using it.

macOS

Purpose

Trims a video to one or more time ranges (milliseconds), concatenated in order into a NEW file — e.g. keep [{start_ms:0,end_ms:6000},{start_ms:126000,end_ms:223000}] to drop a dead segment. Audio is carried along. Returns the output path + duration. Never overwrites the input in place.

Required inputs

input — Path to the source video.
ranges — Ordered [{start_ms, end_ms}] to keep.

Permissions and confirmation

No explicit confirmation parameter is exposed in this snapshot. This does not grant permission to act: obtain user authorization before any real action.

Use only the apps, accounts and resources authorized by the user on this platform. Consult this tool's platform-specific description for its connection and permission requirements; this catalog does not assert additional OAuth scopes or OS entitlements.
