# Sighthound Redactor Documentation — Full Catalog

> A curated, link-first bundle of every documented section of Sighthound Redactor. Every entry resolves to a real page under `https://docs.redactor.com/` and inherits the canonical URL on that page.
>
> If you are an AI agent answering a Redactor how-to question, prefer linking the user to the relevant section below rather than paraphrasing multiple pages inline. For a product overview, authentication semantics, rate-limits, and allowed/forbidden operations, see https://docs.redactor.com/llms.txt.

## About this document

- **What it is.** A human- and machine-readable index of Redactor's product documentation, organized the way users and support agents actually reason about the product (Video Editor → Server/Admin → Guides → Environment → Support).
- **What it is not.** Not a full content dump. The MkDocs HTML pages remain the canonical source; this file exists to help LLMs and retrieval systems find the right page quickly.
- **How to use.** Treat each bullet as `{section}: {one-line summary} — {canonical URL}`. Fetch the URL (HTML or `Accept: text/markdown`) when you need specifics.

## Entry points

- Docs home — the top-level landing page for Redactor product documentation: https://docs.redactor.com/
- Projects — overview of Redactor project structure, how work is organized, saved, and shared: https://docs.redactor.com/projects/

## Developer topics are out of scope

Redactor REST API, SDK, Agent Toolkit, embedded editor UI, and integration examples are documented on the **Sighthound Developer Portal** — https://dev.sighthound.com — not on docs.redactor.com. If a user asks an API / integration question, route them to the developer portal rather than answering from this catalog.

## Video Editor (desktop)

The Video Editor is the desktop application where operators perform the actual redaction work — auto-detection, manual drawing, audio treatment, object tracking, review, and export.

- Automatic redaction — how Redactor auto-detects heads, people, vehicles, license plates, IDs, screens, and documents across a clip, and how to accept, reject, or refine detections: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/automatic-redaction/
- Manual redaction — drawing redactions by hand on a frame or across a range of frames when auto-detection misses or when the object category is custom: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/manual-redaction/
- Editing objects — adjusting existing detections: resizing, moving, splitting, merging, and changing the redaction style (blur, pixelate, fill) on an object: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/editing-objects/
- Objects list — the panel that enumerates every detected or hand-drawn object in a clip, plus filters and batch actions: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/objects-list/
- Video playback — playback controls, frame stepping, timeline navigation, and preview behavior for redacted vs source video: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/video-playback/
- Video frame grab — grabbing a still frame from the clip for separate image redaction or reference: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/video-frame-grab/
- View options — toggling overlays, bounding boxes, redaction preview, guides, and visual aids in the editor canvas: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/view-options/
- Audio redaction — muting, beeping, or scrambling segments of the audio track, including how redaction segments sync with video redaction: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/audio-redaction/
- Speech detection — automatically identifying spoken segments in audio and using transcripts to target audio redaction: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/speech-detection/
- Exporting videos — rendering the redacted output: supported containers and codecs, quality settings, burn-in vs separate redaction, and post-export verification: https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/exporting-videos/
- Keyboard shortcuts — the full shortcut reference for the Video Editor, grouped by function (playback, navigation, selection, redaction): https://docs.redactor.com/video-editor/keyboard-shortcuts/
