What it does
Tesseract by Mirage is a set of skills and CLI releases with which an agent edits video and builds animation, 3D scenes and graphics. The Edit Video skill cuts footage, reframes shots and mixes dialogue, music and effects. Motion Graphics animates titles, lower thirds, diagrams and captions. 3D Scenes builds scenes with cameras, lights and materials and imports Blender and glTF. The Design skill makes posters, thumbnails and social graphics, and Editor builds a browser editor in which a team tweaks the project by hand. All skills work in one `.tsrct` project, so one video can mix footage, motion and 3D. The agent picks the skill from the request.
Who it is for. Video editors and content creators who want to drive editing and graphics through Claude Code, Codex or Cursor.
Good fit when
- A video must be cut from source footage from a description, with music added and audio balanced.
- A video needs animated titles and captions that can be edited later.
- An ad needs a short 3D scene with camera movement.
- A video thumbnail and a social post must sit in the same project as the clip.
Not a fit when
- You need a ready-made graphical editor with windows and tracks and no agent.
- The material cannot be used with online features, since some capabilities require signing in to the MCP.
- The machine runs no supported system, as releases exist for macOS, Windows and Linux.
Example request
Cut these clips into a 15-second video to the music, add a title at the start and export the video.Limitations
The license is NOASSERTION, and CLI rights are defined by the Product terms and Tesseract terms. The Claude plugin is still marked as coming soon; for Claude Code and Cursor the skills are installed by a prompt to the agent and update only by repeating it. The MCP in the ChatGPT plugin adds extra features after signing in to a Mirage account. CLI releases carry third-party notices and licenses. The last commit is dated November 2026.
How to disable. Remove the installed skills from the agent directory and the Tesseract CLI the usual way for your system. `.tsrct` projects remain on disk.
