Adobe Premiere Pro MCP

Use this skill when working with the Adobe Premiere Pro MCP server from hetpatel-11/Adobe_Premiere_Pro_MCP.

Core Rules

• Use the MCP tools for Premiere operations; do not invent ExtendScript unless the MCP tool surface is missing the needed operation.
• Prefer read-only discovery first: get_project_info, list_sequences, list_project_items, get_active_sequence, and relevant resource reads.
• Use real imported media. If the user asks to edit with assets, verify file paths exist, import them with import_media, then place the imported project item IDs on a sequence.
• Keep the temp directory consistent across the MCP server and CEP panel: /tmp/premiere-mcp-bridge unless the user explicitly configured another path.
• Ask before destructive or externally visible actions: deleting clips/media, overwriting exports, closing projects, saving over important project files, or sending files elsewhere.
• For generated/demo edits, prefer creating a new clearly named sequence instead of modifying the user's active sequence.
• If a tool returns success: false, report the exact error and run diagnostics before retrying blindly.
