# Diffusion Studio

> Open-source video editor combining an infinite canvas with AI agent workflows

Diffusion Studio is an open-source video editor featuring an infinite spatial canvas, multitrack timeline, and built-in AI media generation. It connects with coding agents via MCP and CLI to let tools like Claude Code or Cursor analyze footage, cut clips, and generate audio or visuals directly in the project codebase.

## Why it was saved

- [@konstipaulus, 29 June 2025](https://x.com/konstipaulus/status/1939349264263430428): Described as 'Figma meets Sora': a visual canvas where you drag assets, prompt an agent to generate/replace elements (e.g. swap a Minecraft block into an ASMR photo with FLUX.1 CONTEXT-MAXM, cut videos with KLING-2.1-Standard, add sound with MMAUDIO-V2), approve results, and edit on a Timeline with export.
