### From an installed release
The release packages ship `filmcraft-cli` alongside the desktop app, so no build is needed:
| Install | CLI |
|---|---|
| Windows (MSI) | `C:\Program Files\FilmCraft\filmcraft-cli.exe` by default (wherever you installed it otherwise), not on `PATH` |
| Linux (deb, rpm) | `/usr/bin/filmcraft-cli` |
| macOS | the separate `filmcraft-cli-<version>-macos-<arch>.zip` release asset (the `.app` holds only the desktop app) |
```sh
# Windows, default install folder
claude mcp add filmcraft -- "C:\Program Files\FilmCraft\filmcraft-cli.exe" mcp
# Linux, or macOS with the CLI unzipped onto PATH
claude mcp add filmcraft -- filmcraft-cli mcp
```
