What should I do if my Shotstack connection is inactive?

Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with the shotstack toolkit to trigger the authentication flow and re-establish an active session.

Can I automate bulk video production with this skill?

Yes, you can use RUBE_REMOTE_WORKBENCH to run bulk operations, allowing you to process multiple video renders in a single workflow session.

Why must I call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS before executing tasks?

Tool schemas and API requirements for Shotstack can change; searching first ensures you use the most current input parameters and avoid execution errors.

What are the limitations of using Rube MCP for video rendering?

The skill relies on the availability of the Rube MCP gateway and the current state of the Shotstack API; it is best suited for orchestration rather than high-frequency real-time video processing.
