Frame.io MCP server, CLI and API
Frame.io's MCP server, https://mcp.frame.io/v1/mcp, has been in public beta since 7 October 2026. Within your Frame.io permissions, an assistant can read and write review comments, manage shares and reviewers, upload media and delete content [2][3]. It needs a V4 account with an Adobe ID; Legacy accounts are not supported [2].

Added before 7 October 2026? Change the URL to the V1 address [2].
Adobe Managed Accounts (set up in the Adobe Admin Console): Adobe's login can silently reuse another organisation's browser session, giving empty results or permission errors. Clear Adobe cookies or sign out fully, then reconnect [2].
Name: Frame.io

Approvals and risks
- In Claude Desktop, read-only and interactive tools both default to 'Needs approval' [2].
- Frame.io recommends auto-approving read tools only and reviewing every write and delete [2].
- 'Always allow' means no confirmation or preview. Frame.io's example: 'organize these into the right folders' could move files to the wrong place before you check [2].
- Inviting reviewers emails them; public shares are open to anyone with the link [2].
- Deleted files and folders can be restored; deleted projects, workspaces, shares, comments and metadata fields cannot [2].
