# Premiere Pro MCP

> Original open-source local MCP server for Adobe Premiere Pro. Canonical site: https://premiere-mcp.com/. Package: adobe-premiere-pro-mcp. Official CLI: premiere-pro-mcp.

## When to use this

Use Premiere Pro MCP when you are controlling Adobe Premiere Pro on the same machine as the user and you need to edit a local timeline: insert, overwrite, trim, razor, move, ripple, roll, apply effects, import media, inspect sequences, or queue an export.

Do not use it for After Effects, remote/cloud Premiere, or hosted media APIs. The MCP server is local stdio, not Streamable HTTP. Footage never leaves disk.

First tool call after install: `verify_premiere_connection` with no edits. Then `search_tools` and `invoke_tool`. Do not invent tool names. Hosts advertise five tools unless `PREMIERE_MCP_TOOLSET=full`.

## Install

```
npm install -g adobe-premiere-pro-mcp
premiere-pro-mcp --install-cep
premiere-pro-mcp --doctor
```

Register MCP server `premiere-pro` with command `premiere-pro-mcp`. Open Premiere: Window → Extensions → MCP Bridge (CEP), Start Bridge.
