Use when asked to remove pauses, silences, or dead air from a specific track in a Premiere Pro sequence, e.g. "remove the pauses from the narration track" or "cut the silences out of audio track 2 (and keep the camera video in sync)". Also use when a linked video track must stay frame-aligned with the audio track being cleaned up.

Use when Claude needs to query or drive Premiere Pro itself (not just log a message) via the Premiere Bridge CEP panel — e.g. reading the active project's sequences — or drive the native Premiere Pro UI directly via macOS Accessibility/synthetic input (screenshot, key press, text entry, mouse move/click, a persistent on-screen notification). Growing list of commands; check here first before assuming a capability doesn't exist.

Use when asked to synchronize, align, or sync a camera recording with a high-quality external mic recording of the same take, or to compute, check, or verify the audio-sync offset between them, e.g. "sync the mic audio to the camera footage" or "check if project007's audio needs realigning". Also use to sanity-check for clock drift between the two recording devices.

Use when asked to auto-match loudness, normalize loudness, or apply Essential Sound's Auto-Match Loudness to a clip in Premiere Pro, e.g. "auto-match loudness on this clip" or "normalize the VO track to -23 LUFS". Opens/focuses the Essential Sound panel, sets Audio Type to Dialog, expands and enables the Loudness section, and clicks Auto-Match — all by driving the native UI via screenshot + desktop-* primitives, since Auto-Match has no ExtendScript/QE API.

Use when asked to color-correct or color-calibrate a Premiere Pro clip against a ColorChecker chart already sitting in the timeline, e.g. "correct color for this clip" or "calibrate against the chart at 00:01:30". Extracts the chart frame, builds a LUT, selects the target clip, and drives Premiere's native UI (screenshot + desktop-* primitives) to load the LUT onto Lumetri Color's Input LUT. See calibrate-lut for the LUT-building step if only that's needed.

Use when asked to build, fit, or calibrate a color-correction LUT from a photo of a ColorChecker calibration chart, e.g. "build a LUT from this ColorChecker photo" or "color-calibrate this camera against the chart shot". Covers both the traditional 24-patch ("classic") chart and the Calibrite ColorChecker Passport Video 2's video-production page.

Use when asked to create a new/fresh/empty Premiere Pro project, e.g. "/create-empty-premiere-project project0002" or "/create-empty-premiere-project myseries 2".

Use when running automation against a Premiere Pro project (transcribing, cutting pauses, building/rendering HyperFrames compositions, creating projects) to surface progress inside the Premiere Bridge CEP panel, if it's open.
