After Effects

Automates After Effects through ExtendScript without touching the UI. You ask Claude to add keyframes, create comps, wire up expressions, or audit your project, and it generates JSX that runs via osascript. Ships with query scripts that read project state in the background, plus rule files covering ES3 constraints and API patterns for layers, effects, animation, and rendering. The workflow is solid: gather context silently, load domain knowledge, generate wrapped in undo groups, execute or confirm based on risk. Works on macOS only and requires scripting permissions enabled in After Effects preferences. Good for batch operations and keeping your hands on the keyboard instead of hunting through panels.
