Adobe's subscription creative software suite and cloud platform spanning design, video, and photography tools.
At Adobe MAX, Adobe announced that Creative Cloud will support a local Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration, letting third-party agents from OpenAI, Google and Anthropic directly operate Photoshop, Premiere and other desktop apps on native local project files. The feature is slated for private beta in early 2027, alongside Firefly assistant upgrades including a planning mode and persistent background agents.
At its Max conference, Adobe committed fully to agentic AI, previewing local MCP integrations that let third-party agents from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic directly edit native Creative Cloud project files in Photoshop, Illustrator, and Premiere. It also upgraded the Firefly AI Assistant and enabled agents to run recurring creative work continuously in the background, with all layers remaining editable for human takeover.
