✨ Key Features

🎥 Video Operations

  • Basic Editing: Trim, merge, resize, crop, rotate videos
  • Effects: Speed control, fade in/out, grayscale, mirror
  • Overlays: Add text, images, or video overlays with transparency
  • Format Conversion: Convert between formats with codec control
  • Frame Operations: Extract frames, create videos from images

🎵 Audio Operations

  • Audio Processing: Extract, trim, loop, concatenate audio
  • Volume Control: Adjust levels, fade in/out effects
  • Audio Mixing: Mix multiple tracks together
  • Integration: Add audio to videos, replace soundtracks

📥 Download & Utilities

  • Video Download: Download from YouTube and other platforms
  • File Management: Directory operations, file listing
  • Path Suggestions: Get recommended download locations

🧹 Memory & Cleanup

  • Smart Memory: Chain operations without saving intermediate files
  • Resource Management: Clear memory, check stored objects
  • Efficient Processing: Keep objects in memory for complex workflows

🔗 Operation Chaining

Seamlessly chain multiple operations together without creating intermediate files. Process your video through multiple steps (trim → add audio → apply effects → add text) while keeping everything in memory for optimal performance.

📋 Requirements

  • Python 3.10 or higher
  • moviepy==1.0.3
  • yt-dlp>=2023.1.6
  • mcp>=1.12.2
  • typing-extensions>=4.0.0

⚙️ Installation & Setup

For Claude Desktop / Cursor MCP Integration

Ensure that uv is installed.
If not, install it using the following PowerShell command:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

Add this configuration to your MCP configuration file:

{ "mcpServers": { "video_editing": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "--python", "3.11", "video-edit-mcp" ] } } }

Configuration file locations:

  • Claude Desktop (Windows): %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Claude Desktop (macOS): ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json in your project root

Manual Installation

git clone https://github.com/Aditya2755/video-edit-mcp.git cd video-edit-mcp pip install -r requirements.txt pip install -e .
