Read the SHOT layer of a sequence — which clips form one shot, which scene it plays in, who is in it, and what the continuity pass found. This is the layer above the timeline: lab_get_sequence gives you clips in a row, this one gives you the cut. Costs nothing, writes nothing. Use it before changing a cut: a shot binds clip_ids, so the times come out of the timeline and a shot whose clips you shorten simply gets shorter. Read `clips_ohne_shot` as well — it says how far the meaning lags behind the timeline, and an empty `shots` list usually means nobody has derived them yet (lab_shots_ableiten does that, for free). Every shot reports `clips_verwaist` (clip_ids that no longer exist in the timeline) and `zusammenhaengend` (false when another shot's clip sits between this one's): a torn shot is allowed — one location cut into twice — but it says so, instead of showing a duration longer than the sum of its clips.
