Edit a talking head or any speech-led cut by editing its transcript as text: cut words and failed takes, shorten pauses, reorder. Load before cutting speech on a project that already has a timeline.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Speech Edit Cut speech by editing its words, not by doing timestamp arithmetic. `speech_text` writes the current cut as numbered lines; you edit the file; `speech_edit` rewrites the timeline from it. ## Order of passes 1. Mechanical pass first: `waveform_trim` (or the `waveform-silence` skill when noise defeats its threshold), `rm_nonspeech`, `rm_fillers`. 2. This pass. 3. Captions, overlays and music last. They anchor to the speech, so finish it first. `waveform_trim` stays the fallback when the transcript is unreliable (noisy or mumbled audio) and for footage without speech. ## The loop 1. Run `speech_text` (params: `project`, `track`, `unused`). Read the file at the result's `path` (`speech-text.md` in the project folder). 2. Edit the file: with your edit tool, or in the app by rewriting it with `write_file`. 3. Run `speech_edit` with `text` = the file path and `preview`. Read `cut`, `flagged` and `hardCuts`. It cuts with `feel` `natural` by default, which keeps some air at each cut; pass `feel: "tight"` only when the user asks for a tighter cut. 4. Run it again without `preview`. Read the new text it returns and work from that. …

How to install
mdr add thesampadilla/montaj/speech-edit@sha256:03af2ee10c2f94baThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.f114657, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
