Adobe MCP Connector

Edit photos, design graphics, resize video and handle PDFs with Adobe tools in Claude.

Officialby AdobeHosted, nothing to installChecked October 18, 2026

Adobe's hosted connector, launched as Adobe for creativity, gives Claude more than 50 tools drawn from Photoshop, Lightroom, Illustrator, Firefly, Express, Premiere, InDesign and Adobe Stock, so you can retouch photos, build social graphics from templates or reformat videos by describing the result. Acrobat tools for organizing, redacting and converting PDFs were added in September 2026, and you can start as a guest before signing in with an Adobe account.

Who it is for

  • Content creators
  • Small business marketers
  • Photographers
  • Office workers who handle PDFs

Prompts to try

Once it is connected, ask in plain words. Claude decides when to use the server and asks before it changes anything important.

Prompt 1
Retouch these five portrait photos so the skin tones and warm lighting match.
Prompt 2
Make an Instagram story from an Express template announcing our Saturday market, then give me a TikTok version.
Prompt 3
Combine these two PDFs, delete page 3 and redact every phone number.

How to connect it

In Claude Code

  1. Not documented by Adobe: connect Adobe in claude.ai first,

  2. it appears in Claude Code (check /mcp) when you are signed in with the same Claude account

In the Claude desktop app

Customize > Connectors > Discover: search Adobe, then select Connect to Claude

Hosted address: https://adobe-creativity.adobe.io/mcp

Good to know

Guest mode offers about 40 tools; signing in with a free or paid Adobe account adds more tools, storage and higher limits. Team and Enterprise admins must allow the connector first.

How we checked it

Checked Adobe's developer pages and launch blog post, the adobe/skills plugin config that points to this endpoint and the Claude directory listing (shown as Adobe, with Acrobat tools); the endpoint publishes OAuth metadata for Adobe sign-in and refuses unapproved clients.
