At Max, Adobe offered a preview of a local Model Context Protocol integration for Creative Cloud that enables third-party AI agents—including those from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic—to directly modify local project files in Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, and After Effects. The feature is not yet available, with a private beta planned for early 2027. Adobe also previewed agents capable of continuously handling repetitive tasks in the background, such as asset organization and quality checks, with users able to review their plans and approve final results; no launch date has been set. The Firefly AI Assistant beta adds features including a plan mode, a model selector, and Firefly Boards integration.
