Your Reference Edit, Rebuilt by Katana in Claude

Running as a Higgsfield skill, the Katana IA Video Editor takes a cut you already like and recreates it with your own people, products, or wardrobe — without ever leaving the Claude chat.

  • A Higgsfield Skill That Lives in Claude
    Everything runs through the Higgsfield MCP connector, using Higgsfield models and drawing on the same account and credit balance you already have at higgsfield.ai.
  • Your Reference Sets the Structure and Rhythm
    Whether you upload a clip or pick a preset from the Katana library, that source locks the shot order, how long each beat holds, and where cuts land against the music.
  • Photos and Notes Decide What Shows Up
    Up to five photos determine who and what appears on screen, while an optional instruction lets you flag the details worth keeping or replacing.

Three Steps to a Rebuilt Edit With Katana

Pick a reference, add your assets, then recreate: three quick moves take you from brief to finished cut in Claude.

Core Capabilities of the Katana IA Video Editor

From a preset catalog sorted on two axes to the credit notice you see before every render, here is what this Higgsfield skill really delivers in Claude.

A Preset Catalog Split Two Ways

Each preset is a prebuilt reference edit with its own motion, look, and a prompt for inserting fresh material. Entries are grouped by category (personalized edits, style transfer, motion transfer) and again by origin (Higgsfield or Community).

Sharing a Preset With the Community

You publish from the Katana page: attach a motion clip between 3 and 30 seconds, up to 40 images, and a prompt that references them with @. Presets go live right away and may be taken down after reports.

See the Credit Price Before You Render

Costs are drawn from your existing Higgsfield plan — no separate MCP bill, no Claude surcharge — and a panel showing the exact credit amount appears before you approve the run.

The Output Keeps the Reference Settings

In our test the MP4 matched the source's duration, aspect ratio, and frame rate, none of which were configured in Claude. It shows up in a chat widget for preview and download, and is saved to Assets.

Wiring Higgsfield Into Claude

Open Settings → Connectors, add a custom connector named Higgsfield, paste https://mcp.higgsfield.ai/mcp, and authorize. You only need a paid plan — there is no API key involved.

Runs Alongside Genjutsu in One Chat

Genjutsu's Motion Transfer and Object Swap share the conversation and the same Assets, so a clip processed by Genjutsu can be handed to Katana as a reference and the workflow continues without leaving Claude.

FAQ

Katana IA Video Editor: Common Questions

Answers on references, credit costs, community presets, and running this Higgsfield skill inside Claude.

1

What do I actually get back from Katana?

A new video that preserves the reference's shot order, rhythm, and overall edit — delivered right in the Claude chat and saved to your Higgsfield Assets.

2

Is an API key required to use it in Claude?

No. In Claude, open Settings → Connectors, add a custom connector pointing at https://mcp.higgsfield.ai/mcp, and sign in with your Higgsfield account — a paid plan is the only requirement.

3

Can a TikTok or Instagram profile link serve as the reference?

No. Katana needs an actual file, so it opens a Higgsfield upload window inside the conversation; a direct link to a media file works, but social profile pages are refused.

4

Are there extra charges for using it in Claude?

None. Every render draws on your existing plan credits — no separate MCP invoice and no Claude markup. The price appears before you confirm, and fixes that need fresh renders may add to it.

5

Can I redo just one shot once the edit is done?

Yes — simply reply in the Claude chat. In our test only the affected shots were re-rendered; anything requiring new generations uses more credits, and moderation may block some renders.

6

Can I publish my own preset for others to use?

You can. On the Katana page, provide a motion clip of 3 to 30 seconds, up to 40 images, and a prompt that tags them with @. It appears immediately and may be removed after reports.
