Drive Adobe After Effects from an agent by writing and running ExtendScript (.jsx) — the result-file bridge that gives you real error feedback, the PNG frame-render loop that lets you see what you built, and the ES3 language traps that break AE scripts. Use whenever the task is to build, fix, keyframe, expression, render, or inspect anything inside After Effects, including "fix this comp", "the expression is broken", "keyframe these layers", "build this animation in AE", or…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# ae-extendscript After Effects has no chat interface and no MCP by default. It has a scripting engine. You control it by **writing a `.jsx` file, running it, and reading a result file back** — a real feedback loop, not fire-and-forget. Do not click. Do not describe steps for the user to perform. Write the script. ## One-time setup (tell the user, once) **Enable file writing** — without it every result file silently fails: > Edit → Preferences → Scripting & Expressions → tick **Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network** → OK That is the only manual step. If a script "runs but nothing happened", this is the first thing to check. ## The bridge Three files, every time: ``` work/ ae/run.jsx the script you generate ae/result.json what AE writes back — you read this ``` ### Run it **Windows** (adjust the year to the installed version): ```bash "/c/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe After Effects 2025/Support Files/AfterFX.exe" -r "C:/work/ae/run.jsx" ``` **macOS:** ```bash osascript -e 'tell application "Adobe After Effects 2025" to DoScript "$.evalFile(\"/work/ae/run.jsx\")"' ``` …

How to install
mdr add blixvip/skills/ae-extendscript@sha256:18899f454a79d5e6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260918.9d305f6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
