Search, analyze, and generate edits from source videos through Video Jungle.

What it does

Video Jungle's MCP server connects agents to its video analysis and edit-generation platform: upload videos by URL, create projects, search analyzed footage by embeddings and keywords, generate edits from one or more videos, and optionally export OpenTimelineIO projects for DaVinci Resolve Studio. It fits the research-to-cutdown workflow: find every moment in a clip set, ask for the edit, then bring the timeline back to an NLE.

Field notes

Gone quiet: PyPI video-editor-mcp 0.1.59 was uploaded Oct 9 2025 and the repo (288 stars, up 3 since June) was last pushed the same day — ten and a half months with no commit and still no repo license detected. The hosted Video Jungle service is still up and its site advertises 6 free generated videos before usage depends on the account, but nobody is maintaining the client. The API key is passed as a positional CLI argument rather than an env var, and local Photos search requires LOAD_PHOTOS_DB=1 plus macOS file access.
