PuppetCat 0.7.0
The open-source video editor your AI agent can actually use. Every feature is available in the window and to agents over MCP.
This is an alpha. Expect rough edges, and please report what breaks.
Highlights
- Agent and MCP layer: transactional edit plans with dry-run diffs, project and media lifecycle tools, snapshots and contact sheets, speech tools, and a window that hosts the agent's tools so you can watch its edits land live.
- Editing: ripple trim, delete and insert, delete range, remove silence, beat detection and cut-to-beats, scene detection, markers attached to clips, relink media, batch export, layouts and templates.
- Transitions: wipe, push and zoom, with cross-fades that no longer dip through black or reveal cut footage.
- App: Open project on the start screen, follow-playhead, track reordering, live inspector details.
- macOS packaging: the DMG is signed with a Developer ID and notarized.
Install
macOS (Apple silicon): open the DMG and drag PuppetCat to Applications. The MCP server ships inside the bundle at PuppetCat.app/Contents/MacOS/puppetcat-agent-mcp; see the README to connect an agent.
