find_reaper_projects: Finds all Reaper projects in the directory you specified in the config.parse_reaper_project: Parses a Reaper project and returns a JSON object.
These tools work in tandem. When you ask Claude a question about a specific Reaper project, it will use the find_reaper_projects tool to find the project, then use the parse_reaper_project tool to parse the project and answer your question.
