Expo Launch Video tools (10)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
video_captureCapture app screens for the launch video: screenshot, element positions and the full scroll content. Give routes to capture several screens in one call (in video order), or nothing to capture the current screen.
video_capture_tapCapture an interaction: the current screen, a tap on an element (animated finger + ripple in the video) and the screen it leads to.
video_editvideo_planBuild the video timeline from all captured screens: intro, one scene per screen with automatic timing, zooms, scroll speed-ups and captions, then an outro. Replaces the current timeline.
video_recordScreen-record the phone for a few seconds (real frames, ~6-12 fps): optionally navigate first, scroll smoothly, or tap an element mid-way. The clip plays in the video as a live recording.
video_renderRender the video to MP4 (in the studio tab, opening it if needed) and return the file path.
video_replyShow a short message to the user in the studio chat.
video_studioOpen the studio in the browser: live preview, timeline, per-scene controls and a prompt box where the user can type edits.
video_timelineShow the current video timeline (compact).
video_wait_for_promptWait for the user to type an edit request in the studio prompt box (ones the studio could not apply itself). Apply it with video_edit, answer with video_reply, then call this again to keep collaborating.

What the publisher says
From the Expo Launch Video repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
Website · Docs · The studio · Tools reference · Changelog
expo-launch-video lets your AI agent shoot and edit a launch video of your Expo app — live from your phone. Ask Claude Code, Antigravity or Cursor for a video; it records the real app (page loads, scrolling, taps, panels opening), picks the best takes, writes the captions and cuts a polished video with motion graphics, break-out pop-outs and sound. Then it opens a studio where you tweak the result by dragging, or just by typing what you want. Export is a real 1080p MP4, rendered in your browser. No After Effects, no ffmpeg, no screen-recording app.
"Make a 45 second launch video of the app: landing, login, dashboard, the question bank and one exam. Captions should sell the benefits."

Installation
npx expo install expo-mcp-bridge react-native-view-shot
npm install --save-dev expo-launch-video
npx expo-launch-video initinit writes .mcp.json with a launch-video server — it includes every app_* tool from expo-mcp-bridge, so one server does both — plus the directing skill for Claude Code (.claude/skills/launch-video), the same playbook in AGENTS.md for Antigravity, Cursor and others, and a .gitignore entry for the project folder.
Quick start
The one-shot way. Paste this into your agent inside your Expo project:
Read https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rudrasamadhiya/expo-launch-video/main/AI_SETUP.md and set up app control and launch videos in this project.By hand:
- Install the packages and run init (above).
- Mount the bridge once in your root layout:
import { Stack, router } from 'expo-router';
import { AgentBridge } from 'expo-mcp-bridge';Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
