Claude Code can cut your video.
The edit happens beside the repository it belongs to, so a release video is built from the same context as the release.
Setup takes a minute: add the server, then pair with the code in the editor header. After that Claude Code has all 59 tools.
Setup
Add Frapea to Claude Code
- 1
Add the server
One command, and-s userbecause the scope matters: the default registers Frapea for the directory you happen to be standing in and nowhere else.terminalclaude mcp add -s user --transport http frapea https://app.frapea.com/mcp
Then, the same for every client
Pair Claude Code with the editor
- 1Open the editor and click Connect an agent in the header. It shows an eight-character code.
- 2Paste the whole line into Claude Code — the sentence, not just the code. It tells the agent which tool to call.
- 3Good for ten minutes, and once. If it has expired, read a fresh one.
Nothing to sign up for, and no API key on either side. The endpoint is https://app.frapea.com/mcp.
When it doesn't take
Two things go wrong, and it is almost always one of them.
1
frapea is not in /mcpIt was added without
-s user, so it belongs to one project directory. Run claude mcp list from that directory to confirm, then add it again with the scope.2Tools appear but every call says it is not paired
The code has been spent or has expired. Codes work once and last ten minutes — open the editor and read a fresh one.
What you just handed it
59 tools, and one of them is looking at the result.
Claude Code now has the whole editor: it cuts, captions, sources footage it does not have, writes the titles as code, and renders frames back to itself to check the work before it says it is finished.

Using something else?
Any client that speaks MCP can drive Frapea. These are written out.
