Adobe expands Creative Agent, previews local MCP and always-on workflows
Adobe expanded the Creative Agent and AI Assistant beta across Firefly and Creative Cloud, added Plan Mode and Model Selector, and previewed recurring always-on workflows plus local MCP control of editable Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere and After Effects project files. Firefly Design and Graph are beta; Firefly Builder is private beta.
Why it matters: Creative agents now span planning, recurring background work and third-party control of native project files. That can reduce handoffs, but it widens the file, model, schedule, credential and undo boundaries that creative teams must govern.
