get_job · Rendobar MCP Server found in code, not yet checked
Check status and get results of a submitted job. PREFER wait:true after submit_job — it long-polls server-side (up to ~50s) and returns as soon as the job finishes, instead of you polling in a loop; if the job is still running when the wait times out it returns the latest snapshot, so just call agai

FrameLane is a GPU-native video editing and rendering API for AI agents. Your agent edits a project in JSON, previews it cheaply, and renders production-ready video only when it's valid, through the API or MCP.
Labels are the instruments' verdict and are never changed by ranking. Agents and robots get this same answer as JSON at /api/v1/find?q=…&answer=1 and through the MCP server.
