Automate Adobe After Effects workflows using AI agents to inspect project state, generate animations, verify pixel renders, and manage reusable scripts.

After Effects MCP (ae-mcp) connects Adobe After Effects directly to the Model Context Protocol, enabling AI assistants like Claude, Codex, and OpenCode to automate motion graphics workflows. Functioning as a CEP panel and host service, it lets models read live project hierarchies, write and execute ExtendScript, and leverage native C++ AEGP primitives for sub-frame precision. It establishes a robust "read, execute, preview, correct, save" feedback loop by rendering visual PNG frame previews, generating project checkpoints with rollback capabilities, and capturing successful operations into an in-panel Tool Library as reusable scripts.

主な機能

01Generates PNG previews and multi-frame visual difference comparisons directly within the AI workflow
02Captures successful animation routines into a reusable Tool Library that supports candidate replay, export, and import

04Inspects live After Effects project state including compositions, layers, properties, and keyframes with pagination and filtering
05Executes ExtendScript animations and native AEGP primitives for sub-frame timing and generation-bound locators
06Maintains project checkpoints with recovery identifiers to revert or correct failed operations gracefully

ユースケース
