Adobe is committing itself to the notion that chatbots and AI agents could be your next design assistant, or even automate creative workflows and repetitive tasks on your behalf. Some of the tools and features announced today at Adobe’s Max conference in Miami, Florida, include allowing your preferred third-party AI agents to access and change Creative Cloud projects, new capabilities for Adobe’s Firefly AI Assistant, and the ability for AI agents to keep perpetually running recurring work in the background.
Local Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations for Creative Cloud tools were previewed at the event, which aim to give you a choice between using Adobe’s own AI assistants, or the third-party agents you already use everyday. The integrations enable external AI agents from providers like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic to work locally in Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, and After Effects, where they can make direct changes to native project files on your computer.
You can take over from the agents at any time to manually refine the work because all layers, vectors, bins, and sequences remain editable. Agents that are connected to other MCP-capable tools can also include them in the same workflow, such as asking the AI agent to pull reference documents from Google Docs, design a project around them in Adobe’s tools, and then share the results with colleagues or clients in Slack. Creative Cloud local MCP integrations aren’t available yet, but Adobe says a private beta will be launching in early 2027.
