CapCut MCP Server — Extended
Fork of atx-guy/capcut-mcp-server adding parametrized typography, animation presets and full talking-head production workflows for Claude Code.
How to set it up
- Install and run VectCutAPI.
- pip install -r requirements.txt for this server.
- Add it to claude_desktop_config.json and start a project.
This is a plain-English summary of the project's own instructions. Commands and versions change, so always follow the current README at the source link.
Safety notes
- Unofficial; requires running the VectCutAPI backend too.
General rule: open a duplicate of your project before letting any agent make changes, and read what a script does before approving it.
