Connecting Editz to Claude Code

With npx @editz/editz already running in one terminal tab, open another and run:

claude mcp add --transport http editz http://127.0.0.1:9317/mcp

That's it — Claude Code now sees Editz's editing tools. Start (or restart) a Claude Code session and ask it something like "look at my project and tell me what we can do with it."

Or edit the config file directly

If you'd rather add it by hand, put this in .mcp.json (project root) or ~/.claude.json (applies to every project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "editz": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:9317/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Sanity check

Ask Claude Code to run get_timeline or just say "what tools do you have from editz?" — it should list things like cut_filler, detect_beats, and render_timeline. If it doesn't see anything, make sure the Editz app is still running and you've signed in.
