maxFrames
(1-60) — cap on extracted frames. Default scales with video duration at standard detail (~12 for ≤30s up to 60 for >10min); fixed 60 at detailed, 0 at brief. An explicit value always wins
How to use it
maxFrames is exposed by the MCP Video Analyzer MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the maxFrames tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
