add-tags | Add Tags | writes | Tag a screen frame (vision) or audio chunk (audio) so it can be retrieved later. Tags are a shared linking layer: use namespaced tags (person:ada, project:atlas, topic:pricing) to connect a capture to a person, project, … |
search-speakers | Search Speakers | read-only | Search for speakers by name prefix. Returns speaker ID, name, and metadata. |

stop-meeting | Stop Meeting | writes | Stop the current manual meeting recording session. |
get-meeting | Get Meeting | read-only | Get a meeting by ID: title, attendees, times, and the full note. Pass include_transcript=true to also get the speaker-attributed transcript segments — do this when the note is empty and you need to reconstruct what was s… |
update-meeting | Update Meeting | writes | Update a meeting's mutable fields (title, attendees, note, app, start/end). Partial: only the fields you pass are written, others stay as-is. Use this to save an AI-generated summary into the meeting note — read the curr… |

get-frame-elements | Get Frame Elements | read-only | Get all UI elements for a specific frame. More targeted than search-elements when you already have a frame_id. |
control-recording | Control Recording | writes | Start or stop audio recording. This does not pause or resume screen capture. |
