OpenChatCut is an open-source ChatCut alternative: local-first AI video editing where Codex, Claude, and MCP agents work on a real multitrack timeline. Free, editable exports, AGPL.
honestly the multitrack timeline with MCP agents sounds super cool, but one thing i'd really want is a way to save and share edit "recipes" or agent prompts so i can reuse the same workflow across projects. basically a little library for your favorite prompt chains that you can drop in whenever.
Love the local-first approach and editable exports being free. One thing that would help a lot is proxy media generation so 4K timelines stay snappy on lower end machines. Would also be great if the AI agents could remember project wide style choices between sessions so you don't have to re explain your color grade each time.
Local-first multitrack editing with agent support sounds genuinely useful. One thing that would make a huge difference for me is a simple undo history that spans across agent-driven edits, so I can roll back a whole AI cleanup pass without losing my manual tweaks from before.
Love the local-first approach and the real multitrack timeline finally being usable with AI agents. One thing that would really help me as an editor: a way to version the timeline edits the agents make, so I can diff or roll back specific agent actions when something goes sideways.
Local-first editing with a real multitrack timeline is a really thoughtful call here, makes the whole thing feel like an actual editor instead of a toy. Appreciate the AGPL stance too.

@ersinnxtr Thank you, Ersin. We wanted it to feel like a real editor from day one—not just a chat interface around a rendered video.
The local-first approach with real multitrack timeline support is such an underrated detail, makes it feel like an actual editor instead of a chat toy.
