It walks through opening Terminal, trusting the folder, and running Cloud slash buttercut, then providing the absolute path to the source footage and the destination for the resulting XML timeline. Under the hood, the tool transcribes audio with timestamps, uses Claude to decide cut timing with target gaps of about 30 to 100 milliseconds (adjustable via tightness), and can run faster by using 11labs instead of Whisper, reducing earlier edits from around 15 minutes to about 5 minutes. The demo shows an import into DaVinci via File then Import Timeline and results in a much shorter first-cut edit, with the run time cited as 11 minutes and 31 seconds for the example clip."}
