 `--set action.setting=value` sets anything `batchedits actions` lists. Short action names: `captions`, `silence`, `crop`, `zoom`, `clips`, `repeats`, `hook`.
 
+### Fix caption words
+
+Captions are transcribed automatically; fix names or brand spellings before the edit (no extra credit):
+
+```bash
+batchedits captions 3f2a…                                   # check the words
+batchedits captions fix 3f2a… --replace "BatchEdit=BatchEdits"
+batchedits run ./raw --style "Shorts" --fix "BatchEdit=BatchEdits" --yes   # every video in one go
+```
+
+Fixes apply before processing only; a finished video keeps its captions.
+
 ### Hooks
 
 `--hook-clip` plays a short intro clip (a video hook) before every video. `--hook-clip ai` lets AI pick a different matching clip for each video. To use one clip for all of them, find it with `batchedits hooks <words>`, then pass its id, or just the words for the best match. With `--hook` too, the text hook is drawn on the clip:
