Set up framely

framely ships the tool, not the brain β€” your AI agent is the intelligence. Everything below gets framely onto your machine and wired to your agent; all render and analysis run locally.

01

Try it in the browser

The web editor works with no install and no login β€” the free tier is fully usable. Open a project, import media, cut, caption, and preview right in your browser.

02

Install the CLI

The CLI is framely's core: it initializes projects, applies typed edits, undoes them, ships the MCP server your agent connects to, and runs the URL-import bridge.

Requires Node.js 22 or newer. Prefer no global install? Run npx framely-cli@latest instead.

03

Connect your agent (MCP)

Register framely as an MCP server so your agent can drive it. On Claude Code, one command wires it up in the current project directory.

Any MCP client works: run framely mcp over stdio. Your agent reads its full contract β€” the op schema, tools, and recipes β€” at /llms.txt.

04

Import video from a URL

Paste a video URL into the editor and framely fetches it into your library. There are two ways to enable it β€” pick whichever fits your setup.

05

Subscribe & activate

The free tier is the whole editor β€” unlimited local render, clean exports, no watermark. One flat plan adds the cloud studio: project sync + version history, unlimited hosted auto-captions, and translated subtitles.

06

Agent API reference

Point your AI agent here. /llms.txt is the machine-readable contract β€” the typed op union, the MCP tools, and the deterministic PERCEIVE β†’ ACT β†’ PROVE recipes. Give it the URL, not this page.
