ChatCut Agent Plugins

ChatCut is an AI video editor for agents: an MCP server and plugin that lets Codex, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, Grok Bot, Gemini CLI, Google Antigravity, Kimi Work, WorkBuddy, Doubao Work and Qwen Work edit your own footage, add captions and subtitles, remove silences and filler words, create motion graphics, generate video, voiceovers and music, and export an editable timeline.

AI video editing for your agent. The ChatCut Agent Plugins connect Codex, Claude Code, Grok Bot, Cursor, Google Antigravity, Kimi Work, WorkBuddy, Doubao Work and Qwen Work to ChatCut, so you can ask your agent to edit a video, add captions, clean up a talking-head recording, or recreate a viral video with your own footage, and get an editable timeline back.

Under the hood the plugins import media, change a project timeline, create motion graphics, generate assets, transcribe audio, add captions, export videos, and verify that edits are visible in the editor.

Quick install

ChatCut Desktop (recommended). Paste this into Codex, the ChatGPT desktop app, Claude Code or another local agent. The agent installs ChatCut Desktop, opens sign-in, and connects itself to Desktop's local chatcut_desktop MCP server:

Read ChatCut.io/desktop to install ChatCut

Or run the official installer yourself:

# macOS 13 or newer (Apple Silicon or Intel)
curl -fsSL https://chatcut.io/install.sh | sh

# Windows 10 or newer (x64)
irm https://chatcut.io/install.ps1 | iex

In the ChatGPT or Codex desktop app you can also open Plugins in the sidebar, search for ChatCut, and select Install.

Doubao Work (豆包工作) connects to ChatCut Desktop through a local connector: see doubao/README.md.

Hosted Web plugin. Use this for existing ChatCut Web projects or Web-only use.

Claude Code (claude mcp login needs Claude Code 2.1.210 or newer; full guide):

claude plugin marketplace add https://github.com/ChatCut-Inc/agent-plugin.git#main
claude plugin install chatcut@chatcut-inc
claude mcp login plugin:chatcut:chatcut

Codex CLI (in the Codex desktop app, use its bundled Codex CLI; full guide):

codex plugin marketplace add https://github.com/ChatCut-Inc/agent-plugin.git --ref main
codex plugin marketplace list   # note the marketplace name
codex plugin add chatcut@<marketplace>
codex mcp login chatcut

Gemini CLI:

gemini extensions install https://github.com/ChatCut-Inc/agent-plugin

Grok Bot: see grok/README.md. Cursor: see cursor/README.md. Antigravity: see antigravity/README.md. Kimi Work: see kimi/README.md. WorkBuddy: see workbuddy/README.md. Qwen Work (千问办公): see qwen/README.md.

Other MCP clients that support remote servers with OAuth can connect to https://api.chatcut.io/api/external-mcp/mcp and sign in with a ChatCut account.

Install ChatCut Desktop (recommended)

Ask your agent to read the complete ChatCut Desktop setup guide using curl -fsSL https://chatcut.io/desktop (curl.exe on Windows), then install ChatCut and connect the current agent. The official macOS and Windows installers do not need Node.js or npm. Desktop owns its local tools and Skills. Run setup on a supported macOS or Windows computer with a graphical desktop. Linux and remote agents without access to that computer cannot install Desktop there; continue in a local agent on the supported computer.

To recreate a reference video with your person or product while retaining its motion and timing, use Desktop’s bundled video-gen Skill and submit_video_remake. See the video recreation guide. Quotes use current account access and require approval before spending credits.

The hosted packages below remain available for existing Web projects and explicit Web-only use. Web projects and original media remain separate and are not automatically migrated. Connecting Desktop to the same agent may disable or replace its conflicting hosted connection; do not promise that both connections stay active.

What Is Included

• codex/ - the Codex plugin package.
• claude/ - the Claude Code plugin package.
• grok/ - the Grok Bot plugin package (hidden from Cursor).
• cursor/ - the Cursor plugin package (hidden from Grok Bot); its skills and assets symlink to grok/.
• antigravity/ - the Google Antigravity plugin package.
• antigravity/plugin.json - Antigravity plugin metadata.
• antigravity/mcp_config.json - Antigravity MCP server configuration.
• kimi/ - the Kimi Work plugin package, with mandatory basics, core craft skills, and in-app browser adapters; see its package and migration guide.
• workbuddy/ - the WorkBuddy expert package for the hosted Web plugin; see its README.
• doubao/ - the Doubao Work (豆包工作) Skill package for ChatCut Desktop; see its README.
• qwen/ - the Qwen Work (千问办公) expert kit for the hosted Web plugin; see its README.
• chatcut-desktop-codex-plugin/ - the store-facing, skill-only package that helps Codex install and connect the signed ChatCut Desktop app.
• codex-store/ - builds the OpenAI plugin directory ZIP from codex/; see its README.
• codex/.codex-plugin/plugin.json - Codex plugin metadata.
• claude/.claude-plugin/plugin.json - Claude Code plugin metadata.
• grok/.cursor-plugin/plugin.json and cursor/.cursor-plugin/plugin.json - Grok Bot and Cursor plugin metadata, both listed in .cursor-plugin/marketplace.json.
• gemini-extension.json - Gemini CLI extension manifest (hosted MCP only; install with gemini extensions install https://github.com/ChatCut-Inc/agent-plugin).
• codex/.mcp.json - Codex MCP server configuration.
• codex/skills/ - host adapters and canonical shared craft skills for this repository.
• Other packages use relative symlinks for identical skills, references, helper scripts, licenses and assets; host-specific files stay separate. All targets are inside this repository, not another checkout.
• codex/assets/ - canonical plugin icons and brand assets.

Clone the complete repository with symlink support. When distributing a standalone package, dereference its symlinks so the bundle contains its shared resources (codex-store/build.mjs does this for the OpenAI directory ZIP). Live installation of each host's package still needs host-specific verification.

Requirements

• A ChatCut account.
• Codex with plugin support, Claude Code 2.x (CLI or desktop app), Grok Bot, Cursor, Google Antigravity (App, CLI, or IDE), Kimi Work, WorkBuddy, Doubao Work or Qwen Work.
• Access to a ChatCut project you want to edit.

Optional hosted Web plugin authentication

The plugin connects to ChatCut through the hosted ChatCut MCP endpoint:

https://api.chatcut.io/api/external-mcp/mcp

The host handles authentication when the plugin is installed or first used (codex mcp login chatcut, or claude mcp login plugin:chatcut:chatcut in Claude Code). Grok Bot and Cursor users complete the authorization flow from the host's Plugins screen. Antigravity users select Customizations → Authenticate next to the ChatCut MCP server. Follow the sign-in flow to connect your ChatCut account.

Install instructions per host: Codex Web guide for Codex, Claude Code Web guide for Claude Code (agent-executable copy in ./docs/claude-code-web-install.md), ./grok/README.md for Grok Bot, ./cursor/README.md for Cursor, and ./antigravity/README.md for Antigravity.

Example Prompts

After installing and authenticating the plugin, ask in your own words, for example:

• Cut this talking-head video tighter and add captions.
• Add subtitles to my video and export a vertical version.
• Add a simple motion graphic overlay.
• Generate a voiceover and background music.
• 帮我把这段口播剪干净，加上字幕。
