A system that allows LLMs (like Claude) to control Adobe Premiere Pro through an MCP server and UXP plugin.

Purpose: Implement an MCP server that enables LLMs (Claude, etc.) to control Adobe Premiere Pro

• Adobe Premiere Pro Beta (25.3) or later
• UXP Developer Tool for loading plugins

LLM (Claude Desktop) → MCPServer (Python/fastmcp) → UXP Plugin (TypeScript) → Adobe Premiere Pro

• Sequence creation/deletion
• Media file importing

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv .venv
   source .venv/bin/activate   # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
   

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r server/requirements.txt
   

To enable Claude to control Adobe Premiere Pro, you need to configure Claude Desktop with the MCP server settings:

1. Locate Claude Desktop's configuration file:

   • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
   • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add the Adobe Premiere MCP server configuration to the file:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "adobe-premiere": {
         "command": "<path-to-virtual- python-executable>",
         "args": [
           "<path-to-server-main.py>"
         ]
       }
     }
   }

3. Example configuration (Windows):

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "adobe-premiere": {
         "command": "C:\\Users\\username\\Documents\\repos\\mcp_adobe_premiere\\.venv\\Scripts\\python.exe",
         "args": [
           "C:\\Users\\username\\Documents\\repos\\mcp_adobe_premiere\\server\\main.py"
         ]
       }
     }
   }

4. Restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect.

1. Install dependencies:

   cd plugin
   npm install
   

2. Build the plugin:

   npm run build
   

3. Install UXP Developer Tool and load the plugin in Adobe Premiere Pro:

   • Open Adobe Premiere Pro Beta (v25.3 or later)
   • Launch UXP Developer Tool
   • Click "Add Plugin" and select the folder plugin from this repository
   • Click "Load" to load the plugin into Premiere Pro
   • The plugin should appear as "MCPAdobe" in the Premiere Pro Extensions menu
   • Open the plugin panel from Window > Extensions > MCPAdobe
   • Connect to the MCP server using the default URL or customize as needed
