Why Katana Video Editing Rebuilds Instead of Guessing
Katana Video Editing takes a reference edit plus up to five photos and rebuilds the whole video — shots, pacing, and cuts — through the Higgsfield MCP connector in Claude.
- The Reference Edit Sets the StructureYour own video or a Katana library preset guides shot order, the length of each shot, and where the cuts land on the music, so the format exists before generation starts.
- Up to Five Photos Define Who AppearsPhotos of characters, products, or clothing are placed into the reference's shots, while optional instructions flag details such as the product shot that matters most.
- Built on Higgsfield MCP, Not a Separate ToolIt is a Higgsfield skill for Claude running on Higgsfield models, on the same account and the same credits, with results landing in the chat and in Higgsfield Assets.
How to Use Katana Video Editing
Three moves: choose the reference, add your assets, then recreate and refine in the same Claude chat.
Katana Video Editing Features
From a two-axis preset library to a credit price shown before you confirm — what Katana Video Editing actually ships with inside Claude.
Preset Library by Category and Source
Browse presets on the Katana page or in Claude, sorted by category — Personalized edits, Style transfer, Motion transfer — and by source: Higgsfield or Community.
Two Entry Points, One Chat
Use the three-field form on the Katana page with Send & Generate, or reach the same chat with /katana, /katana/<preset-name>, or a plain request that starts it without a command.
Credit Cost Shown Before Confirmation
Katana Video Editing uses the credits of your existing Higgsfield plan with no separate MCP billing and no markup, and Claude displays the exact cost before each generation.
Output Keeps the Reference's Format
In the test the returned MP4 carried the reference's duration, aspect ratio, and frame rate — not set separately in Claude — and appeared in a chat widget with preview and download, saved to Assets.
Iteration Starts From the Previous Result
A second version for another character or product is just another message in the same conversation, and corrections apply to the edit that already exists rather than restarting the work.
Sits Beside Genjutsu and Other MCP Tools
It shares the connector's account, library, and credit balance, so a Genjutsu clip can become a reference and a finished edit can be taken further without leaving Claude.
Katana Video Editing — FAQ
Common questions about the reference workflow, the Higgsfield connector, and how credits are charged.
What does Katana Video Editing need from me to start?
Two inputs: the edit you want reproduced — a clip of your own or a library preset — and as many as five photos of the people, products, or clothing that should appear in it. Written notes on what to keep or change are optional.
Do I need an API key or a separate subscription?
Only an active Higgsfield subscription — no API key. Set it up once by adding a custom connector in Claude (Settings → Connectors) pointed at https://mcp.higgsfield.ai/mcp, then sign in and authorize with your Higgsfield account.
Can I use an Instagram or TikTok link as the reference?
Katana can't pull a video out of a social account page, so a handle URL is useless here. Save the actual clip and drop it into the Higgsfield upload panel that appears inside the conversation, or point Katana at a URL that ends at the video file itself.
Is Katana Video Editing billed separately from my plan?
Nothing extra is charged for running it inside Claude. Generations draw on your plan's credit balance, Claude shows the price on a card before you confirm, and follow-ups that trigger fresh generations can raise the total. Tiers and allowances vary by region.
Can I fix one shot after the edit is generated?
Yes. Follow-ups in the chat target the edit that already exists — swap a photo, rework a shot, tweak a detail. Our test regenerated only the affected shots; new generations can cost extra credits, and moderation may decline some results.
Can I publish my own preset to the library?
Yes, from the Katana page: a 3–30 second motion clip, up to 40 images, and a prompt that @-mentions them. Published presets appear right away and can be removed after reports.
Rebuild Your First Edit with Katana Video Editing
Add the Higgsfield connector in Claude, open the Katana page or type /katana, and rebuild a reference edit with your own characters or products on your existing plan credits.
