About CutVoke

CutVoke is a local-first, MIT-licensed video editor. Its stdio MCP server and the human UI share one editable multitrack timeline: an agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) can import media, cut clips, add captions, set keyframes, preview real rendered frames, and export an MP4 or an editable project package. Editing leases, dry-run previews and undo keep agent and human edits from colliding. Footage stays on the local machine; no account or API key for local editing. Windows, macOS, Linux. Prerelease (v0.3.5). Submitted by the author.
