--- name: tella description: "Manage Tella via CLI - videos, clips, playlists, webhooks. Use when user mentions 'tella', 'tella.tv', 'tella video', 'screen recording', 'video transcript', 'clip thumbnail', 'video export', 'remove filler words', 'add zoom to video', 'blur video', 'highlight video', 'playlist of videos', or wants to interact with the Tella video recording/editing API." category: video --- # tella-cli ## When To Use This Skill Use the `tella-cli` skill when you need to: - List, fetch, update, or delete videos in a Tella workspace - Pull transcripts (cut or uncut) for a clip with word-level timestamps - Generate video or clip thumbnails (jpg/png/webp/gif/mp4) at custom sizes/timestamps - Trigger video exports at 1080p or 4k, 30/60fps, with optional burned-in subtitles - Duplicate a video or clip, optionally trimmed - Edit clips: cut time ranges, reorder, remove filler words, find silent ranges - Add or update visual edits: blurs, highlights, layouts, zooms (manual or tracking) - Manage playlists and add/remove videos from them - Add workspace collaborators (editor or viewer) to a video - Create webhook endpoints, fetch signing secrets, and inspect recent deliveries ## Capabilities - Read every video and playlist in the workspace, including metadata, view counts, and share links - Push fine-grained edits to clips (cuts, reorders, blurs, highlights, layouts, zooms) without opening the Tella editor - Pull transcripts for downstream search, summarization, or accessibility workflows - Start exports and poll/list webhook deliveries to know when files are ready - Manage sharing: `linkScope`, password, allowed embed domains, search-engine indexing - Subscribe to events (`video.created`, `export.ready`, `transcript.ready`, etc.) and recover delivery messages ## Common Use Cases - "List my last 20 Tella videos and dump them as JSON for a content audit" - "Get the uncut transcript for clip X so I can generate chapter timestamps" - "Export video Y at 4k 60fps with subtitles burned in" - "Add a blur over the credentials shown between 4.2s and 7.8s on this clip" - "Create a playlist 'Tutorials' and add these 5 videos to it" - "Wire up a webhook so I get notified when an export is ready" - "Remove filler words from this clip and then fetch the cleaned transcript" ## Setup If `tella-cli` is not found, install and build it: ```bash bun --version || curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash npx api2cli bundle tella npx api2cli link tella ``` `api2cli link` adds `~/.local/bin` to PATH automatically. The CLI is available in the next command. Always use `--json` when calling commands programmatically. ## Working Rules - Always use `--json` for agent-driven calls so downstream steps can parse the result - Run `<resource> --help` or `<resource> <action> --help` when unsure of flags rather than guessing - For destructive actions (`delete`, `remove-*`), read first with `get`/`list` to confirm the target - Most clip mutations require both `<videoId>` and `<clipId>` as positional args (in that order) - Coordinates for masks (blurs, highlights) and zoom focus points are normalized to `0-1` of the canvas - Times are in milliseconds (`*-ms` flags) unless the docs say otherwise ## Authentication ```bash tella-cli auth set "tella_pk_xxx..." # API key from https://www.tella.tv/settings/api-keys tella-cli auth test # Verify the key works tella-cli auth show # Show masked token tella-cli auth remove # Delete stored token ``` Token is stored at `~/.config/tokens/tella-cli.txt` (chmod 600). ## Resources ### videos | Action | Description | Key Flags | |--------|-------------|-----------| | `list` | List videos in the workspace | `--cursor`, `--limit`, `--playlist-id`, `--fields` | | `get <id>` | Get a single video's metadata | -
