I found the timeline_markers function to add markers in the timeline like:

import bpy
scene = bpy.data.scenes['Scene']
scene.timeline_markers.new('F_01', frame=1)

but I can't find the similar function deal with sequence editor

Like Lemon said, the Video Sequence Editor and the Timeline Editor share the same markers. So, your code from above should work for the VSE.

  • Open the Video Editing workspace and add a movie strip. Then add the Scripting workspace (click on the + next to the tab Render and choose General > Scripting.
  • Create a new script (click on the button + New at the top) and paste your code from above.
  • Run the script (click on triangle at the top).
  • Switch to the Video Editing workspace. There you will find the marker F_01 at frame 1.

If you need more details about how to create a script; see https://vse-docs.readthedocs.io/extra-tools/python/scripting-workspace.html#how-to-use-the-script-editor-efficiently
