Let Claude Code edit in Instagram Edits for Mac, with the full editor and not just the home screen.
One prompt, a real Claude Code session, nothing scripted. Edits found no beats, so Claude analysed the music itself (122 BPM), cut every clip on a beat, checked its own frames and exported the reel. Watch with sound .
Edits for Mac, which Meta launched on 5 November 2026, has a built-in automation server that speaks MCP: in Meta's words, you can connect AI agents "to the desktop editor through MCP so they can help with your projects". You can point Claude Code at it directly, but you only get part of it.
Edits changes its tools with the screen. The home screen offers 32 tools: projects, imports and catalogs. Open a project and it offers 274, with text, captions, effects, transitions, keyframes, audio and export. Edits says it will announce that change (tools.listChanged: true) but never sends the notification. Claude keeps the 32 home tools for the whole session and never sees the editor.
This bridge sits between the two. After every tool call it asks Edits which tools it offers now. If the set has changed, it tells Claude, and Claude refreshes the list. It also fixes a reply format that some Claude Code builds reject, gives readable errors, and keeps your token out of config files.

Works with Claude Code in the terminal and in the Code tab of the Claude desktop app. It's a standard stdio MCP server, so other MCP clients (the Claude desktop chat, Cursor, Codex) can run insta-edits serve too, though we've only tested Claude Code.
notifications/tools/list_changed as soon as Edits moves between home (32 tools) and the editor (274). Without the bridge, that notification never arrives."resultType": "complete" without the caching fields that newer MCP schemas pair with it. Some Claude Code builds then dropped every tool, with Invalid result for tools/list: ttlMs … cacheScope. The bridge removes the marker only when those fields are missing.0600 file. It never appears in ~/.claude.json, in logs or in error messages.--json gives you a report to attach to a bug.pip install for the plugin, and it runs on the python3 that comes with macOS.python3 3.9 or newer. Run xcode-select --install if macOS asks for the command line tools.Go to Edits › Settings › Automation, switch on Enable Automation Server, and copy the Access token. Keep Edits open while Claude works.
Start claude in a terminal and type:
/plugin marketplace add faisalkhanzemi/insta-edits-for-claude
/plugin install insta-edits@insta-edits
Claude Code asks for the access token with a masked prompt and stores it in your keychain. Restart Claude Code, then run /mcp: edits should show as connected. The plugin also installs the edits skill.
Installing from a shell script, or using the Claude desktop app
The shell commands do the same thing but don't prompt for the token, so set it afterwards with /plugin configure insta-edits@insta-edits inside Claude Code:
claude plugin marketplace add faisalkhanzemi/insta-edits-for-claude
claude plugin install insta-edits@insta-edits
A plugin installed this way, at user scope, also shows up in the Code tab of the Claude desktop app, which reads the same settings.
pipx install insta-edits
insta-edits set-token
claude mcp add --scope user edits -- insta-edits serve
set-token asks for the token with a hidden prompt and saves it to ~/.config/insta-edits/token with 0600 permissions. Never put the token itself on the claude mcp add line: it would end up in plain text in ~/.claude.json and in your shell history.

✓ macOS 27.0.1 ✓ Edits app installed /Applications/Edits.app ✓ Automation server answering at http://127.0.0.1:19501/mcp (HTTP 403 without a token, as expected) ✓ Access token from ~/.config/insta-edits/token ✓ Sign-in metapilot-native 1.0.0, protocol 2025-06-18 ✓ Tools 32 on the current screen (home screen; Edits offers more once a project is open) ✓ Reply format normalised for older Claude Code builds (resultType without caching fields) ✓ Edits automation schema 2026.10.19-1 ✓ Tool-change notifications Edits announces them but never sends any; the bridge checks after each call and tells Claude
All good. Claude can drive Edits.
Each ✗ line names its fix. Plugin users who want doctor can install the CLI as in 2b. The plugin token lives in the keychain, so without set-token the doctor checks stop at the sign-in step.
Ask for edits in plain words:
Open my latest Edits project and tell me what's on the timeline.
Import
~/Movies/broll/into a new project, cut it to the beat of the voice-over, and add word-by-word captions in a clean sans.
Add a soft zoom on every product close-up and a whoosh on each cut, then render a preview so I can check the frames.
Claude opens the project, the editor tools appear, and it works from them. It doesn't post. Publishing stays in the Edits window unless you explicitly tell Claude to share a specific video.
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| Session | The bridge forwards initialize, keeps Edits' Mcp-Session-Id, and sends MCP-Protocol-Version on every request. |
| Replies | It accepts both JSON and text/event-stream replies and batch requests, and normalises resultType only when the caching fields are missing. |
| Tool sync | After each tools/call it sends its own tools/list to Edits, using an id Claude never sees, and compares the tool names. If they changed, it writes notifications/tools/list_changed to Claude. Turn this off with serve --no-sync. |
| Notifications | If a future Edits build opens a server-to-client stream, the bridge listens on it and forwards what arrives. Edits doesn't offer one today, so the bridge stops trying after the first refusal. Turn it off with serve --no-stream. |
| Edits closed | The bridge answers initialize itself, reports no tools and retries Edits every 5 seconds (INSTA_EDITS_OFFLINE_POLL). When Edits answers, it opens the session and sends notifications/tools/list_changed. |
| Errors | A tool call while Edits is closed returns JSON-RPC -32001. An HTTP error from Edits returns -32002. Both carry a one-line fix. |
Settings come from the environment: EDITS_MCP_URL (default http://127.0.0.1:19501/mcp), EDITS_MCP_TOKEN, and EDITS_MCP_TOKEN_FILE. Logs go to stderr.
| Version | |
|---|---|
| Edits for Mac | 454.0.0 (server metapilot-native 1.0.0, automation schema 2026.10.19-1) |

| macOS | 27.0.1 |
| Python | 3.9.6 (system), 3.11, 3.13 in CI |
Edits updates often and its automation server is undocumented. If a new build breaks something, run insta-edits doctor --json and open an issue with the output. It contains no token.
| Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
Cannot reach Edits | Open Edits and switch on Settings › Automation › Enable Automation Server. |
| HTTP 401 or 403 | The token changed in Edits. Update it in /plugin, or run insta-edits set-token. |
| Only home tools, even with a project open | Check that edits in /mcp points to the bridge and not straight at 127.0.0.1:19501, and that you didn't start it with --no-sync. |
Import fails with file not found: ~/… | Edits doesn't expand ~. Pass the full path, such as /Users/you/Movies/clip.mp4. |
Import fails with Sandbox bookmark unavailable | Edits is sandboxed. In our tests it imported from ~/Movies and refused ~/Downloads, ~/Desktop, temp folders and project folders. Move the footage into ~/Movies and import it from there. |
| Exported video is silent where the song should be | Songs from Edits' music library come in as licensed tracks, and exports started through automation leave them out: the music bed was silent in every test, while our own audio files exported fine. Export or post from the Edits window when a library song matters. |
addSongToComposition adds a different song | Passing a track id sometimes added another track. Passing the exact title added the right song in our test. |
127.0.0.1. It sends nothing anywhere else and has no telemetry.repr. doctor --json reports where the token came from, never its value.How do I connect Claude to Instagram Edits? Install Edits
