# Doseedo Film Score

> Spots the cut, plays the parts your agent writes on AI instrument models, and mixes the cues onto the picture.

## Caveats

- The free account is 120 credits a month, and Doseedo's own 70-second, 22-part case-study cue spent all 120; Pro is $12 for 2,000.
- An initialize on protocol 2025-11-25 gets an error instead of a downgrade; 2025-06-18 and 2026-07-28 work, so confirm your client connects.
- It performs, it does not compose: the agent writes every note, or doseedo_supervise_cues cuts public-domain repertoire to the cues.
- Instruments are AI models, not sample libraries: a take can miss or add notes, so read each part's fit receipt and listen before delivery.

## What it does

Doseedo's hosted film endpoint covers the parts of scoring to picture an agent cannot do alone and leaves the writing to the agent. doseedo_spot_video turns a cut into a cue sheet (frame-exact cuts, keyframes, dialogue spans, cues with SMPTE in and out, hit points); doseedo_tempo_map lands the hits on downbeats; doseedo_render_score plays the written parts, one stem per part with a receipt saying whether each played its notes; doseedo_score_to_picture lays the mixed cues on the untouched video, ducked under dialogue and normalised to a delivery loudness. For a filmmaker-agent it is the route where music is written to this cut rather than generated to its length, and it comes back as stems plus a Logic Pro or Ableton Live project.

## Auth

## Field notes (verified 2026-11-07)

Checked 7 Nov 2026: https://api.doseedo.com/mcp/film answers initialize anonymously as doseedo-film-score 0.21.0 and tools/list returns 25 tools; /mcp on the same host carries 48, including doseedo_generate_music (a prompt-to-song sketch), covers, project conversion and Logic session editing through Dø Desktop. Both are in the official MCP Registry at 0.21.0, as com.doseedo/film-score and com.doseedo/doseedo. Protocol handling is unusual: a client asking for 2025-11-25 gets JSON-RPC error -32022 rather than a downgrade, while 2025-06-18 and stateless 2026-07-28 work. Tool calls return 401 with OAuth protected-resource metadata; the authorization server supports dynamic registration and PKCE, and approving a client mints a revocable dsk_ key, so the X-API-Key header is the headless route. The vendor prints a Claude Code command only for /mcp; the line above is the same command pointed at the film endpoint. doseedo_instruments, doseedo_tempo_map, doseedo_recipes and doseedo_quote answer without signing in. Pricing per https://doseedo.com/pricing and doseedo_quote: a free account gets 120 credits a month with a monthly ceiling, and Pro is $12 for 2,000 with extra credits at 500 for $5. Rendering costs 10 credits per 30-second window per group of up to six player rows, so a six-player section counts as six. Spotting, tempo maps, mixing, delivery and the DAW session spend no credits, but spotting draws on a daily fair-use cap. Doseedo's own Big Buck Bunny case study spent 120 credits on one 70-second, 22-part cue: a free month in one cue. Limits: spotting takes mp4, mov, m4v, webm or mkv up to 2 GB and 3 h; render_score takes 32 lines, 96 player rows and 600 s a call; score_to_picture takes 64 tracks and 25 minutes a call, and a loud orchestral cue can land under the loudness target with a report saying why. A failed part is re-rolled once automatically. doseedo_supervise_cues cuts passages from about a thousand public-domain orchestral works to the cue sheet, with the credit line a CC BY edition needs. Spotting sees light, motion, editing and the soundtrack, not story. Output is instrumental per the guide, though the catalogue includes choir and wordless voice timbres; it lists 87 instruments where the site says 50+. Sound effects come from Stable Audio Open. Result URLs are pre-signed for 24 hours, and cancelling a running job discards the output but still spends the credits. Terms of 28 Oct 2026: you own generated content 'to the extent permitted by law', originality is not guaranteed, and outputs may not be used to train audio or music models; Doseedo says its models are trained on commissioned and licensed multitrack sessions and never on uploads, which is its own claim, not independently audited. For straight video-to-music without writing notes, Sonilo is the local alternative. Submitted by the vendor in PR #154 on 29 Oct 2026.
