AI agent video editing FAQ

What is an AI agent video editor?+

An AI agent video editor lets an AI coding agent edit and export video programmatically instead of a human using a timeline UI. BlitzReels is an AI agent video editor: agents create projects, clip long video, reframe to vertical, generate captions and transcripts, insert B-roll, and export MP4s through a CLI, MCP server, or REST API.

Can Claude Code edit videos with captions from a CLI?+

Yes. Claude Code signs in with the BlitzReels CLI (npx blitzreels auth login), then reads projects, edits captions and transcripts, inserts B-roll, and exports, all from the terminal. An installable agent skill pack gives Claude Code the exact commands and safe edit flows.

Which video APIs support transcripts, B-roll, and export automation?+

BlitzReels covers transcripts, captions, B-roll insertion, reframing, and export automation in one REST API, with a hosted MCP server and a CLI on top. The OpenAPI schema at /api/openapi.json lets you generate clients for custom agents.

Does BlitzReels have an MCP server?+

Yes. BlitzReels runs a hosted MCP server over Streamable HTTP with OAuth at https://www.blitzreels.com/api/mcp. Add it to ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-capable client and the agent can read projects, edit, and export on your behalf.

Which AI agents are compatible with BlitzReels?+

BlitzReels works with Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and ChatGPT through the MCP server, CLI, or REST API, plus other MCP-capable clients such as Cursor. Installable skill packs are published for the most common coding agents.

Can I try the agent integration for free?+

Yes. Create a free account, get an API key, and connect the MCP server or CLI. Watermark-free export is available on paid plans.
