Big Idea
The argument in one line.
A project folder of code, 20-plus skill files, and a hand-built presets folder let a coding agent run an entire video edit end to end from one prompt, with the presets folder doing the work of supplying taste the model doesn't have on its own.
Who This Is For
Read if. Skip if.
READ IF YOU ARE…
A solo creator who edits their own long-form or short-form videos and wants to offload cutting, grading, and sound design to a coding agent instead of a human editor.
Someone already paying for a Claude subscription who wants a concrete, file-based workflow for connecting it to a real editing app instead of a chat window.
A creator curious how a presets folder and repeated revisions can train an agent to match a specific visual style over time.
SKIP IF…
You're looking for a no-setup consumer app. This requires building or buying a project folder of code, skills, and presets before any video gets edited.
You don't already use a coding agent like Claude Code or Codex. The entire system runs through one, not through a regular chat interface.
TL;DR
The full version, fast.
A creator built a 86,000-line Claude Code system, a folder of files and skills an AI coding agent reads to edit a video, that takes raw footage and one prompt and returns a fully cut, color-graded, captioned, and exported video with no manual editing. The system runs inside Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut, and credits a hand-built presets folder, not the model's own judgment, for edits that look custom rather than generic. Demos show a full long-form edit finishing unattended in under three hours, at an estimated cost of roughly five dollars inside an existing Claude subscription.

Atomic Insights
Lines worth screenshotting.
A video editing pipeline built from a project folder of code and skill files can take raw footage and one prompt and return a fully cut, graded, and exported video with no manual editing.
The system described took three months to build: roughly 86,000 lines of code and 335 commits.
An AI coding agent only loads a project's full instructions when the session is started inside that project folder; pasting the same instructions into a regular chat window does not reproduce the system.
A dedicated presets folder, hand-built once per content style, is credited as the difference between an automated edit that looks custom and one that looks like generic AI output.
An AI agent can execute every mechanical editing task but lacks the creative judgment to pick B-roll or animation choices on its own, so those choices get pre-baked into a preset instead.
DaVinci Resolve is the only major editing app with an official, company-built connector for AI agents; Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro rely on community-built ones that still run well in the background.
CapCut has no API-level connector for AI agents, so automation there works by clicking through the interface, which locks the computer for the entire edit.
A full video edit, including the color grade, graphics, and sound design, finished unattended end to end from a single prompt in two hours and 42 minutes, using about 740,000 tokens.
A full automated video edit is estimated at roughly five dollars in model usage, and that cost rides inside a Claude subscription a creator may already be paying for.
At least one full edit per week reportedly fits inside a base $20-per-month Claude plan; heavier use pushes toward a $100-per-month tier instead.
An AI editing agent can source outside assets mid-edit on its own, such as pulling a real app's logo from the internet to replace a placeholder graphic, without being handed the file.
The fastest way to build a usable style preset is to finish one real video completely, correcting it through revisions, then have the agent bake everything learned from that session back into the preset file.
Takeaway
The real system behind an AI video edit
THE REAL SYSTEM
Running an AI video edit end to end is less about the model and more about the system around it: a project folder, dozens of skill files, and a hand-built presets folder encoding the creator's own taste.
01Intro: the claim and the proof
The claim up front is that an AI coding agent edited the entire video end to end, not just the cold open, from one prompt and raw footage.
A client's AI-edited video reportedly scored an 11.5x outlier on its channel, and a separate automated edit became a first-time poster's best-performing long-form video.
02How it works: the free setup
The whole system is just a folder of files and code on a personal computer; the agent reads those files to perform the edit, it isn't a hosted app.
The only required first step is creating a dedicated project folder and starting the coding agent session inside it, pasting in a free public blueprint prompt to scaffold the skeleton system.
03Get it from the paid community
A coding agent only loads a project's full instructions by being started inside that folder, where it reads CLAUDE.md and skill files automatically; pasting them into a normal chat window won't work.
The system uses 20-plus separate skill files beyond a single prompt, built out over three months into roughly 86,000 lines of code.
04Premiere vs DaVinci vs Final Cut vs CapCut
The system works across Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, and CapCut, but how well depends on whether that app exposes itself to an AI agent at all.
DaVinci Resolve is the only one with an official company-built connector; Premiere and Final Cut rely on community-built ones that still work well in the background.
CapCut has no API-level connector, so the agent edits by clicking through the interface instead, which locks the computer during the entire edit.
05Presets: the secret sauce
A dedicated presets folder, hand-built once per content style, is credited as the difference between edits that look custom and ones that look like generic AI output.
An AI agent can execute every mechanical editing task but lacks the creative judgment to choose B-roll or animation choices on its own, so those choices get pre-baked into the preset.
The fastest way to build a usable preset is to finish one real video fully by hand-correcting it through revisions, then tell the agent to bake everything learned into the preset file.
06Live demo: short-form edit
A raw file path, not an uploaded file, is what gets handed to the agent; it edits directly from wherever the footage already sits on the computer.
The agent can source outside assets mid-edit on its own, such as pulling a real app's logo from the internet to replace a placeholder graphic.
Manual timeline trims still work inside the system; a human can cut a line out directly and tell the agent to re-sync captions to match.
07Live demo: long-form one-shot
A full video, including the color grade, graphics, and sound design, finished unattended end to end from a single prompt in two hours and 42 minutes.
The entire two-hour-plus edit only consumed 740,000 tokens of the session's budget.
08How much it costs
A full video edit is estimated at roughly five dollars per video in model usage, and that cost rides inside a Claude subscription a creator may already pay for.
At least one edit per week reportedly fits inside the base $20-per-month Claude plan; heavier use pushes toward the $100-per-month tier.
Switching to a cheaper, faster model trades edit quality for token savings, reserved for when polish matters less than speed.
09Time saved + member results
The system reportedly cuts a roughly 16-hour manual edit down to two to three hours of mostly unattended wait time.
Customers in testimonial clips describe it outperforming paid human editors on both output quality and revision turnaround time.
Users describe batching multiple raw recordings and getting all of them edited unattended overnight.
10Final thoughts
The free resources shown are enough to build the system from scratch; the paid community version just skips the build time by handing over the finished files.
Glossary
Terms worth knowing.
One-shot editing
A single prompt that takes raw footage from upload through a finished, graded, and exported video with no back-and-forth revisions needed.
Presets folder
A set of saved style rules, graphics, and animation values that tell an AI editing agent exactly how to cut, caption, and grade for a specific content style, so it never has to invent taste from scratch.
MCP (Model Context Protocol)
A connector standard that lets an AI agent send commands directly into software, such as an editing app, instead of operating it through simulated mouse and keyboard clicks.
Rough cut
The first assembly pass of a video, where clips are selected and ordered before color grading, graphics, and sound design are applied.
Outlier score
A metric comparing a single video's performance against a channel's typical results, used to show that a video significantly overperformed.
Context window
The amount of conversation and data an AI session can hold and process at once; longer or more complex edits consume more of this budget.
“Total two hours, 42 minutes. It only used up 740K of the context windows.”

analogy
This entire video was edited by Claude. Not just the intro, but the entire YouTube video you're watching right now. When I say that I fully automated my video editing, I mean I fully automated my video editing.
As in, all I have to do is send off a prompt, send my raw footage, wait a couple hours for Claude to edit the entire video for me. send off a couple small revisions and then be done with my video and the best part about this is that it's all done completely autonomously for me while i can do other things like work sleep play video games or do whatever it else it is that i want to do with my life while claude edits my video for me this video is going to be a complete guide on exactly how ai video editing works and it's going to be the last video that you will ever need to watch on ai video editing The system that I've built here will continue to work on any coding agent, any model, and any video editing app that you choose in the future.
Not only that, but I have real proof that this editing system actually works and gets real results for real people. My customers and friends have been using this system to edit their YouTube videos, short form videos, and I've got so many examples of people using this and getting real results on real posts. For example, this video posted by Cyreal in my school community was like a crazy outfit.
outlier for his channel this video posted by Andrew Fox was his first video back in a while and also an outlier on the channel this system has been my life's work for the past three months it's taken me 86 000 lines of code and 335 commits and in this video I'm giving it all away so whether you're a video editor yourself an established creator or someone who's looking to just post their very first video online this video is about to save you a ton of hours and time and money so without further ado guys let's get straight into it okay so basically how this whole system works is it's just a bunch of files on your computer claude or any other ai coding agent is going to use these files and code to edit the video for you so if you want to build all this yourself the first thing you to do it would be to start a new project folder name it like video editor or something whatever you want so once you've created that folder you can now go into cloud code make sure you're in cloud code not regular cloud chat or any other coding agent really for that matter and you just want to start up your ai session in the right folder that we just created that's very important now what you can do is go down in the description copy the link to this public artifact this is basically like a free prompt that i'm giving you guys that is going to tell
Claude or whatever coding agent you're using exactly how to build this out, you know, so that it gets the bare bones like skeleton functionality of the video editing system that I've built. Give it to your AI coding agent and let it set everything up. That should have you covered.
Your AI is now going to start building all of the files. Now, first off, I just wanna say, if you join my school community, you can get all the files that I've already spent over three months, 86 ,000 lines of code and 335 commits working on. You can literally just download all of my life's work for the past three months, unzip the folder, and now you don't need to do any work.
I already did everything for you. also i constantly update it and ship out updates to the community every single week improving the video editor and making it even better and better so if you value your time if you just want the plug and play files that are packaged up and ready to go that work right out of the box again you can join my school community down in the description below and download all the files yourself all right now let's move on to like how everything actually works and a couple instructions and tips for you guys so the one thing that i want to make clear is that you have to start up your coding session or your AI session in the project folder, right?
That gives, you know, whatever AI you're using, the proper context and skills loaded in so that it knows what to do. If you're using ChatGPT, you know, same thing goes. It reads the agents .md file and it reads all the codex skills.
If you're using Claude, it's going to read the ClaudeMD file and all of the Claude skills. This system that I've built is not just a skill, guys. There's like...
20 plus skills within this project folder that claude uses to edit the video right so you cannot just like attach this into a chat it's not going to work that way okay what you need to do is unzip the folder make sure you know where the project folder is start your session inside the project folder all right now let's move on to talking about all the different apps that you can use with this video editor project i've actually built it out to fully be compatible with all of the four major video editing apps premiere davinci resolve cap cut and final cut pro i would say that it definitely works the best on davinci resolve and premiere and final cut cap cut is all right as of now davinci resolve is the only app that has released an actual official mcp you know produced by the company blackmagic themselves the other apps like final cut and premiere have community built github repos and mcps that you know allow claude to take control over the app but they work really really well cap cut like i said is the worst functionality out of all of them however for all you cap cut users out there if you really want to stick with cap cut that's fine claude can control cap cut
with some workarounds the work around there is that since there's no official like mcp out for capcut yet it basically the way that it takes control over the app is it uses the ui to like click around and since it's clicking around you cannot work on other stuff while claude is editing your video for you right you can't surf youtube you can't do other things on your browser that's the main downside of using capcut although it still works you're just going to have to step away from your computer while it's editing the video.
Whereas with all the other apps like DaVinci, Premiere and Final Cut, you can be on your computer working on other stuff and it fully works on the editing the video in the background. There's also one more option that you could go with, which is just editing the video straight up within cloud code chat. It will actually just render the entire video edit and send the file back to you.
in chat. I don't really like this way because I would much prefer just rather working within a video editing app. That way, if I want to make small changes, I can do that really quickly just by clicking and dragging inside of the app itself.
I like to see the timeline visually. So I would suggest working within probably something like DaVinci or Premiere or Final Cut. All right, now let's talk about presets.
One huge, huge tip that I have for building a system like this is you are going to need to build a presets folder. The presets folder is actually the entire reason why the video edits come out looking actually good and sort of like custom rather than just like generic AI slop. The presets folder is actually like a lot of the sauce that I have within my paid version of it because I have spent the time custom building out these editing presets.
i basically took all my creativity and awesome editing knowledge and baked it into a preset so that claude can actually edit well instead of just doing you know basic stuff see the problem is that you know functionally claude can do everything it needs to do when editing a video with all the tools and code that we gave it but it lacks the creativity and you know context the human insight to be able to edit a video really well like for example it wouldn't know to you know go on youtube find this b -roll clip of this specific scene and put it in here you know when i talk about this or let's actually change this graphic to you know come have it rise up and then slide out basically everything about the creative aspects of it i actually baked into the preset if you look in the default youtube preset that i've built out in my package there's all these files here that talk about basically exactly how I like my YouTube video edited.
And that's actually how this video was edited that you're watching right now is with the YouTube default preset. I basically custom built a lot of the animations and the graphics by hand, and I dialed them in by hand because only I know how to do them. And then I just had Claude basically save the values.
That way, it doesn't need to creatively come up with these things from scratch every time we do a video. It's basically just following the recipe. So you can do this with any style of content.
You can do it with vlogs. You can do it with short form content. You can do it with long form.
It works for any style, any video. I've even had members of my community build a vlog preset. As you can see right here, this member was able to do an entire vlog with the cloud video editor.
Obviously, all of my content is published with my YouTube default preset and all of my short form content is edited with the short form preset as well. If you download this package or if you build it yourself, I would say definitely build a preset. for the type of videos that you want to create with all of the rules and all of the knowledge that it takes to actually edit the video well and you can sort of refine it over time the best way to build a preset and dial it in is to do a full video and get the video good like all the way start to finish which you know you might have to prompt back and forth it might take a lot of revisions the first time but your revisions get less and less every time as you tell it okay you know take everything we learned from this session and bake it into the preset so that next time you get it right, first try.
As you do more videos and keep making revisions and keep baking that into the preset, pretty soon, Claude will just edit the video almost perfectly, you know, from start to finish in just one prompt. Building presets, saving presets, very, very important concept to understand. All right, guys, so with all that out of the way, now let's get into some live demos.
So I'm going to show you exactly what it looks like live. editing a long form video, editing a short form video. So I'll see you there.
The first thing to do would be to find your raw footage. Okay. So this is like a 10 minute raw recording, right?
This is a short form. It'll work with short form. It'll work with long form.
So you can pick whatever you want. Let's copy the file path. So that's going to be command option C or on windows.
You can just right click and then. do copy file path and paste this in be like here's the raw footage now what you need to do is give it any specific instructions there or any sort of vision that you would like for the video now by default It's going to edit the video in a style that is from this presets folder.
This is a vertical video, so it's probably going to look in Instagram and it's probably going to use the default talking head explainer preset. If you have a specific style that you want, then you can specify that here. But I just want my default preset.
So yeah, go ahead and edit this video. You need to transcribe it, make the cut, build the project. um do the graphics since this is a demo i don't need it like super super polished i would rather honestly that you get this done like pretty much as fast as possible normally if you want it done right and if this is your first edit i would say hey take as much time as you need and what you want to do ideally is just let it run for probably two hours and then come back and it's done right that's like exactly how you work with a regular editor i would say opus 5 .5 on high is probably like the best settings that you want to use.
If you want it really good, you can put it on a max, but I think that's probably overkill. If you're on like the $20 plan or like the $100 plan and you want to save tokens, you should probably put it on Sonnet 5. Now, the edit's not going to be as high quality, but you're definitely going to save on tokens.
right but me personally i'm gonna use opus 5 .5 for the sake of the demo i just want it done fast so i'm gonna put it on low and i'm gonna send off this prompt you're going to wait for a while because this is going to take a while right so i would go do something else while you wait go play video games do whatever you need to do i'm going to pause and i'll come back when this is done okay so that just got done it started at around 12 20 p .m you guys can check the time here so it's like 22 minutes later let's see what it did here phone number and turned it into the ultimate personal assistant and you guys are not going to believe how easy this was to set that's literally him calling me right now yo what up jarvis can you okay so cool it did like some basic stuff um obviously it didn't go crazy because i told it to get it done like fast it already did the audio pass graphics.
It did some very light graphics. Hasn't done the color grade. Hasn't done the sound effects.
Hasn't done the export. Go ahead and do the color grade and the sound effects, please. It's going to do the adjustment layer now.
It's like closing and then reopening the app. I don't know what it's doing, but you just got to let it do its thing. Let's say, for example, guys, that we wanted to get the real like Grok logo in there, right?
What we could do. I mean, we could, of course, grab the image, but we don't even need to do that. I think it can do this completely autonomously.
So, you know, if I say something like, go ahead and grab the actual Grokbot app icon from online and put that in there, please replace that as the placeholder. And, you know, if you do a real graphics run, like it would do that automatically on its own, right? That's how you can like.
grab stuff or images from online and actually add it into the edit. Or if you have a specific image that you want to include in your edit, then what you can do is basically just be like, yo, just copy the file path at the part where I talk about dinner reservation. I want you to use this image, right?
You can say something like that. It'll take that image. It'll put it in the edit, right?
Because it's all working just through the files on your computer guys. So anything that's on the files on your computer, it can. access and use as you can see it's working on the sound effects and boom there we go it grabbed the actual icon like i didn't even have to go and download it it can just do that itself right and it did all the sound effects too which is perfect yeah from here you can basically adjust the rough cut you can make manual edits if you want like if you want to cut out a line and then move this right here you can do that and then be like hey i just made a cut like make sure that you you know, retime up the captions and make sure everything's good because I cut that section out.
You basically, you know, can collaborate with Claude and have it do all of the grunt work that you don't want to do and just make the edit that way just through prompting. One tip that I have for you guys is using So knowing the name to certain visual effects is really good because it'll allow you to like edit better and have better taste.
So I have a little grain on the background. I have a little glow effect. See how there's a little glow layer on top of everything.
And then also everything moves at 12 FPS. which is a very like cinematic style for motion graphics but honestly guys i try to bake a lot of that into the presets so that you guys don't need to necessarily know all that stuff the limit now guys is really your own creativity right because anything that you can think of you just describe and you can get it in the edit now you can basically just be a director or kind of like you know tony stark and just sit back and be like yo do this do that do this do that it can do screen recording so if you want to screen record as a graphic, you can be like use clotting Chrome, go to my dashboard on this certain app, take a screenshot, take a screen recording of this happening and include that as the graphic or this website, right?
So it can grab any screen recordings autonomously that you might need. Cool guys, hopefully this gives you a little bit of insight into as to how I actually do the AI edits from start to finish. All right guys, this is the moment of truth.
I think it's good enough to get a one shot edit going. So I'm just gonna take whatever. it gives me and post it and show you guys what it can do completely on its own so i'm gonna start it off with one prompt we are gonna get the raw footage which i believe is this right here there's a raw footage of the intro and then for the background music we're gonna be using this right here so i am going to do that and then copy the paths there hey i want you to edit this video fully end to end.
I have given you the background music that I want there, the home we're finally landing music. So use that as the background music and edit this video end to end. The only real request that I have is for when I when I say, oh, like there have been a lot of videos about Claude, a video editor out there.
I want you to pull real YouTube thumbnails from the YouTube and use that as like the graphic to visually show. when i'm talking about like oh there's a lot of other videos out there about cloud video editor so go ahead and start on this edit don't stop until you're finished boom okay guys okay so i'm gonna keep recording this entire process premiere is not even up so it should be able to open up premiere on its own so i'm gonna leave this it's probably gonna take about two hours but we'll leave this and we'll see how it gets done i will come back probably when it's done okay peace Okay, guys, I just got back from the store and I think it should be done now.
I don't know what this was, but cool. Yo, let's go. Okay.
It did it. It did it. It did it.
Okay. Total two hours, 42 minutes. It only used up 740 K of the context windows.
All right, guys. Now I know a lot of you are probably wondering. how much does this cost and how much time is this actually going to save me?
Now, in terms of cost, you can run a full video edit on just the $20 per month Claude plan. If you're using an AI video editor, you're basically paying for it through your subscription, whether that's with Claude or ChatGBT. And you can do at least one edit per week on the $20 a month plan.
I know this because... My friend Andrew is on the $20 per month plan and he was able to do a full YouTube video edit. That was the example I showed at the beginning of the video.
I get a lot of people in the comments that are like, oh, the token cost is so expensive. Like it's gonna come out to more than if you were to just hire a real editor. No, it's not.
It's not even close actually. In fact, it's like so much cheaper to do it this way. It probably...
works out to about five dollars per edit not only do you use your cloud plan to edit videos but you also use a cloud plan to do everything else that you basically need to do like in your business right so and especially for those of you that are already on a cloud plan like the 20 or 100 a month plan then this is basically going to be free for you like as long as you don't hit your usage limits maybe it would take up like a large chunk of your five hour limit if you're on the $20 plan.
But if you really, really need to save tokens, you can just switch to Sonic 5 .5. Everyone keeps asking me like, how many tokens does it take? What's the exact token count, bro?
All you need to know is that if you're on the $20 a month plan, you'll be fine. If you run into limits, then upgrade to the $100 a month plan. So that's cost.
When you break it down, I would say it takes about like $5. per video and that's already included in your cloud subscription. And let's talk about time savings now.
I can't tell you how many hours this has already saved me in editing my videos. It probably takes me from like something that would have taken me 16 hours and it cuts it down to like two to three hours. Not only that, but it does it for me.
So I can like literally go do other work or do whatever else I want to do while the AI edits it autonomously. Don't take my word for it. I'm just going to play a bunch of the clips that I've gotten from my customers who have used it and I'll let them tell you.
you know how much time it saved them bro it even added videos that i thought like like a ai editor couldn't i have this style of video that i do for one of my clients where it like pulls movie clips so it has to like like find like you know relevant from youtube and it did it all like it didn't even better than the editors i was paying for i'm like bro this is crazy like i had like 30 videos that needed to be edited and i went to bed and i woke up and they were all done the thing is right now i just thought like hey i'll just get six edited i tried to just script record six of them back in a row get them edited same day already hey that's already six more reels than i produced in the last three months he used to edit my videos for like ten dollars a video like damn and he made he made mistakes he took forever for revisions yeah you send him a revision it takes like a whole day to get back this claude just like does it paul doesn't even complain about it right it doesn't raise rates as well does it work well for short forms yeah it works really well bro i uh you have to train it a bit
What I did was I saved like some like presets. I have like 15 to 20 of them. I have them saved.
So like today I uploaded like six raw videos that I had recorded and I got them all done in one shot in like 30 minutes. So it was great. It's been a week now that I've been using the video editor.
First week using it, I've almost been able to double my views. I've just crossed like 120 views in the past month, which, you know. For me, it's 120 K.
That's a new record for me. So guys, that's going to be it for this video. Again, if you guys want the full plug and play files, so you can just download unzip and get it working straight away.
You can find that in my paid school community down below, but if not, I gave you guys all the free resources that you need to build this on your own. If you want to take the time and do that, I hope you guys found this video informative and helpful, and I will see you guys in the next one. Peace out.
The Hook
The bait, then the rug-pull.
The opening claim is blunt: every cut, caption, color grade, and sound effect in the video playing right now came from a coding agent working off a single prompt. What follows is the creator's attempt to prove it, then hand over the actual file-based system, built over three months, that makes it work in a real editing app rather than a demo reel.

Export
On-screen copy describes the agent running the same sequence of stages on every video, from the raw cut through final export, rather than improvising an order each time.

Presets as taste transfer
Creative judgment (which B-roll to use, how a graphic should animate) gets hand-decided once and saved into a preset file, so the agent follows a fixed recipe instead of inventing style decisions on every run.

“if you join my school community, you can get all the files that I've already spent over three months ... working on”
Pitched three separate times (the free-setup explanation, a mid-video upsell, and the closing sign-off) as the paid shortcut that skips building the 86,000-line system from scratch.

One prompt, one Claude Code project, and two hours forty-two minutes: the intro you just watched was cut entirely by an autonomous Premiere/DaVinci pipeline with zero manual touch-ups.
A creator wires Claude Code into DaVinci Resolve through a free MCP bridge and runs every stage of an edit live on camera, rough cut, motion graphics, and color grade, with a timer running so you can see exactly how long each pass actually takes.
A screen-recorded, un-sped-up walkthrough of five real motion-graphics jobs — rough cut, animated background, number counter, typography titles, Vox-style collage — built entirely by prompting Claude Code and letting it drive CapCut.
A YouTuber hands Claude full control of Premiere Pro — cutting a rough cut and generating an HTML-animated Mars/Earth graphic from prompts alone — then walks through building the same system for free.
A 22-minute live tutorial where Jason Cooperson builds and demos a Claude Code pipeline that cuts, graphics, captions, and exports a video, using the intro you just watched as the live proof.
Kev wires the tool-dispatch model Jev into his open-source editor HyperEdit, so a chat prompt triggers real cuts, captions, and media pulled straight from an Obsidian vault.
