MediaPilot is a Premiere Pro panel that watches your project's media folders and keeps the Project panel in sync. Drop a file and it lands in the matching bin within seconds. It waits for copies to finish, mirrors nested folders at any depth, follows renamed or moved folders without duplicates, and sends clips of deleted files to a safe "Deleted" bin so sequences keep their structure. Windows & macOS, runs 100% locally.

Could you build this?
Partial The file-watching and bin-sync logic is straightforward, but integrating with Premiere Pro's project panel requires Adobe's UXP or CEP scripting APIs, which are poorly documented and hard to debug without the app.
What it would actually take: Build a UXP or CEP panel for Premiere that uses the Adobe scripting API to create and move project bins, paired with a filesystem watcher and debounce logic for copy completion. The hard part is working around Premiere API limitations for nested bin mirroring and renames, which requires testing against real Premiere versions and some familiarity with Adobe's plugin internals.
