Structure, from the document, instant: stretches that render black, a clip buried under a full-frame one above it, a trim past the end of its file, missing media, muted sound, text too small to read on a phone, open notes. Sound, measured once per file and kept: each clip's loudness and peak as the timeline plays it, the clips that will distort, and whether the speech sits where platforms normalise to (level_audio acts on that); audio: false skips it. It says what is scheduled, never how a frame looks: inspect_timeline at a flagged range is the other half. Free, except measuring sound the first time: cloud processing. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json post /tools/check_timeline openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Eversince API version: '1' description: >- Every Eversince tool as one POST call, plus the routes beside them: the tool list, account and keys, uploads, webhooks and models.
