What the Katana AI Tool Does for Your Edits
Think of a Higgsfield skill that lives inside Claude: hand over an edit you already like and it restages the same video with your cast, your products, or your wardrobe — charged to the plan you already pay for.
- One Reference Edit, Up to Five PhotosBring a clip you shot yourself or a ready-made preset, plus as many as five pictures of the people, items, or outfits that should appear in the finished video.
- Structure, Timing, and Cut PlacementThe reference fixes the shot order, how long each shot runs, and where cuts land on the music, while your photos decide who and what fills the frame.
- Same Higgsfield Plan, Same CreditsEverything runs on Higgsfield models through the MCP connector, drawing on the plan and credit balance you already hold — no separate billing and no markup for using Claude.
How the Katana AI Tool Works in Three Steps
Three moves inside the Claude chat: choose a reference, add your own assets, then refine the rebuilt edit.
What the Katana AI Tool Brings to Claude
Presets, connector setup, credit previews, and format inheritance — the pieces this Claude skill adds to your chat workflow.
Preset Library Sorted by Category and Source
A preset is a reference edit prepared ahead of time, carrying its motion, its style, and a prompt for placing new material; the library splits by category and by Higgsfield or Community origin.
Publishing Your Own Community Preset
Creators share presets right from the Katana page: a 3–30 second clip supplies the movement, up to 40 images travel alongside it, and the prompt calls on them with @ mentions. Publishing is instant, and takedowns follow reports.
Linking the Higgsfield MCP Connector
Add the connector in Claude via Settings → Connectors using https://mcp.higgsfield.ai/mcp, then sign in and authorize; an active subscription is required and no API key is needed.
Credit Cost Previewed Before Every Run
Claude shows a card with the exact credit cost before you confirm, and extra generations or alternatives, corrections included, can raise the total.
Output Keeps the Reference's Format
In the test the result was an MP4 matching the reference's duration, aspect ratio, and frame rate, displayed in a chat widget and saved to Assets with a download button.
Works Alongside Genjutsu and Other MCP Tools
It shares the connector and the same Assets with Genjutsu, so a transformed clip can become the next reference and an edit can go further without leaving Claude.
Katana AI Tool — Frequently Asked Questions
The questions creators ask most about running this Higgsfield skill inside Claude.
Do I need an API key to run Katana in Claude?
None needed. Open Settings → Connectors, add the Higgsfield connector with the MCP server URL, and sign in with an active Higgsfield subscription — no API key is involved.
Which reference files are accepted?
You can send a reference video or a library preset plus up to five photos, either through the Higgsfield window that opens in the chat or from a direct media link; Instagram or TikTok profile links are turned down.
Can I publish my own preset to the library?
You can, straight from the Katana page: a 3–30 second clip for the motion, up to 40 images, and a prompt that points to them with @ handles. It goes live immediately and can be taken down after reports.
Do corrections redo the whole edit?
Follow-ups in Claude refine the result you already have; in the test only the affected shots were regenerated, though changes needing new generations can add credits and moderation may decline some.
What does the finished file look like?
You get an MP4 that matches the reference's duration, aspect ratio, and frame rate, previewed in a chat widget with a download button and stored in Assets on higgsfield.ai.
Who is Katana built for?
Creators who already know the edit they want: a product video in a proven format, a fashion edit with a set rhythm, an aura-farming clip, a motion-graphics intro. Anyone without a reference is better off starting somewhere else.
Create Your First Edit With the Katana AI Tool
Connect Higgsfield in Claude, open the Katana page to choose a preset or upload your own reference, then generate — an active subscription is required, and the credit cost shows before you confirm.
