Premiere Pro MCP Server

Give AI full control over Adobe Premiere Pro.

269 tools across 28 modules — the most comprehensive MCP server for video editing.

What is this?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI assistants like Claude, Windsurf, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client directly control Adobe Premiere Pro — importing media, editing timelines, applying effects, managing keyframes, exporting, and more.

"Add the B-roll clips to V2, apply a cross dissolve between each, color correct them to match the A-roll, and export a 1080p ProRes."

The AI handles the entire workflow through 269 tools that cover nearly every ExtendScript and QE DOM API available in Premiere Pro.

Quick Start

1. Install

Option A — npm (recommended):

npm install -g premiere-pro-mcp

Option B — Clone from source:

git clone https://github.com/ppmcp/premiere-pro-mcp.git
cd premiere-pro-mcp
npm install
npm run build

2. Install the CEP plugin

If installed via npm:

premiere-pro-mcp --install-cep

If cloned from source:

npm run install-cep

This symlinks the plugin into Premiere Pro's extensions folder and enables debug mode.

Manual installation (macOS)

mkdir -p ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions
ln -s "$(pwd)/cep-plugin" ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions/MCPBridgeCEP

# Enable unsigned extensions (CSXS 9–14)
for v in 9 10 11 12 13 14; do
  defaults write com.adobe.CSXS.$v PlayerDebugMode 1
done

Manual installation (Windows)

Copy the cep-plugin folder to %APPDATA%\Adobe\CEP\extensions\MCPBridgeCEP
Open Registry Editor and set these DWORD values to 1:
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\CSXS.12\PlayerDebugMode
- (repeat for CSXS.9 through CSXS.14)

3. Configure your MCP client

Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "premiere-pro": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/premiere-pro-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PREMIERE_TEMP_DIR": "/tmp/premiere-mcp-bridge"
      }
    }
  }
}

Windsurf / Cascade

Add to your MCP server configuration:

{
  "premiere-pro": {
    "command": "node",
    "args": ["/absolute/path/to/premiere-pro-mcp/dist/index.js"],
    "env": {
      "PREMIERE_TEMP_DIR": "/tmp/premiere-mcp-bridge"
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project or global config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "premiere-pro": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/premiere-pro-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PREMIERE_TEMP_DIR": "/tmp/premiere-mcp-bridge"
      }
    }
  }
}
