Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Make and edit videos in Woven, the AI video editor for Mac. Needs the Woven app.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Design, images & audio

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "woven": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@woven-video/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add woven -- npx -y @woven-video/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "woven": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@woven-video/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "woven": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@woven-video/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Woven safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 19 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Woven MCP connector

Woven Video is an AI video editor for Mac. You import your footage, ask for the edit in chat, and fine-tune it on a real timeline. It's a full editor for long and short videos alike: YouTube videos and Shorts, podcasts, gaming videos, Reels, TikToks and more.

This connector lets AI apps on your Mac, such as Claude Code and Codex, make and edit videos in Woven. Through it, the app can:

  • find clips on your Mac and bring them into a workspace
  • look at the footage
  • build and edit reels, and check frames
  • add captions
  • make images, video and audio
  • export

Woven does the editing and rendering, using your Woven account and credits.

It is a local MCP server: your AI app starts it on your Mac, and it talks to the Woven app there. Woven has no public web API, so the connector doesn't work in chat apps or in cloud and web sessions.

Requirements

  • macOS 15 or later.
  • Woven installed in /Applications or ~/Applications.
  • A Woven account with a plan or the 3-day free trial (card required). See pricing.
  • An AI app that runs local MCP servers on your Mac.

Set up

Recommended: paste the setup prompt

Copy the prompt for your app from woven.video/setup.md and paste it into that app on your Mac, once. The same prompts are in Woven under Settings → AI apps.

The prompt:

  1. checks that it is running on a Mac;
  2. installs Woven with Homebrew, only if you agree;
  3. adds Woven's connector to the app;
  4. opens Woven so you can sign in.

That route doesn't need this package or Node.js.

Manual: use this package

This package is a small launcher. It finds Woven on your Mac and starts the connector that ships inside the app. It needs Node.js for npx.

  1. Install Woven. Either download it and move it to Applications, or run:
   brew install --cask woven-video/tap/woven
  1. Open Woven once and sign in.
  2. Add the connector to your AI app.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --scope user woven -- npx -y @woven-video/mcp

Codex

codex mcp add woven -- npx -y @woven-video/mcp

Other apps that take a JSON MCP config, such as Cursor:

{

"mcpServers": { "woven": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@woven-video/mcp"] } } }

  1. Restart the app, or start a new session, so it loads the Woven tools.
  2. Ask it to list your Woven workspaces.

You can also skip this package and point your app straight at the connector. That is what the setup prompt does:

  • command: /Applications/Woven.app/Contents/Resources/woven-sidecar
  • argument: --mcp-stdio

Tools

The tools come from the Woven app, so they change when Woven updates. This list is from Woven 0.2.23.

AreaTools
Workspaces and fileslist_workspaces (start here), create_workspace, list_files, read_text_file, import_media, download_file, download_video
Footage and audiolook_at_media, transcribe_media, extract_audio, identify_song
Reelslist_reels, read_reel, write_reel_spec, render_frame, export_reel, open_in_woven, read_woven_guide, list_sfx_library
Captionsgenerate_captions, edit_caption_words
Generationlist_media_models, generate_image, generate_video, generate_audio, get_generation_status, cancel_generation

Every tool except the guide reader needs a signed-in Woven account with a plan or the free trial.

Five tools spend Woven credits: the three generators, captions and transcription. The generation and transcription tools tell your AI app to get your go-ahead before the first paid use.

How the launcher works

bin/woven-mcp is a short shell script:

  1. It looks for Woven.app in /Applications, then in ~/Applications.
  2. It runs Woven.app/Contents/Resources/woven-sidecar --mcp-stdio.

It never writes to stdout, because stdout carries the MCP connection. If Woven isn't installed, it prints where to get it to stderr and exits with code 1. The script itself downloads nothing.

Troubleshooting

  • "Woven isn't installed" in your app's MCP log: install Woven into /Applications or ~/Applications, then restart the app.
  • Tools say you need to sign in or start a plan: open Woven, sign in, and start a plan or the trial.
  • No Woven tools after setup: restart the app or start a new session. Apps load new MCP servers when they start.
  • An older Woven: update it from the menu bar with Woven → Check for Updates….
