Adobe is testing Firefly Builder, a tool that turns written prompts into interactive prototypes, and plans local MCP integrations for third-party agents in early 2027, expanding how users work with Creative Cloud.
Adobe announced Firefly Builder at Adobe MAX in Miami Beach on Nov. 10. The private-beta feature turns a natural-language brief into an interactive concept that users can revise directly and develop along several paths.
At the conference, Adobe also previewed local Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations for Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere and After Effects. The setup is intended to give third-party AI agents access to native project files on a user’s computer, while leaving components such as layers and sequences editable.
Adobe expects the integrations to reach Creative Cloud customers in early 2027. They are separate from the company’s own beta AI assistants, which use Adobe’s Creative Agent. EconoTimes previously covered the local agent preview for four Creative Cloud apps.
