Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00752 | $0.00752 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00376 | $0.00376 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00150 | $0.00150 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00075 | $0.00075 |
Grade A, and why
davinci-resolve-mcp copilot-instructions.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
This is a copy
88% identical to davinci-resolve-mcp copilot-instructions.md — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 27 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
DaVinci Resolve MCP Server — GitHub Copilot Instructions
This is the DaVinci Resolve MCP server: a Python MCP server (34 compound tools, 341 granular in --full mode) driving Resolve via its scripting API, plus an offline Node "advanced" server (18 tools) that authors .drp/.drt/.drx files and patches the project DB with no Resolve running. Kernel coverage: 136 guarded workflow actions.
- Canonical agent brief: AGENTS.md. Operating reference: docs/SKILL.md. Per-action depth: docs/kernels/*. Advanced (offline) catalog: resolve-advanced/README.md.
- Never modify, transcode, convert, proxy, relink, or create derivatives of source media unless explicitly asked. Analysis output goes to sidecars/scratch/the analysis project root.
- Do not duplicate version numbers, tool counts, or kernel-action counts into prose — they drift. Reference the docs above.

Domain routing
Per-domain guidance lives in .github/instructions/resolve-*.instructions.md and,
on demand in any MCP client, as the /<domain>_workflow slash prompts:
- Color / Grade — grading, correcting, shot matching, developing looks, or applying/modifying LUTs, CDLs, DRX grades, or copied grades. Depth: docs/kernels/color-grade-kernel.md + docs/guides/color-decision-guide.md.
- Timeline Edit — cutting, trimming, pacing, duplicating/moving clips, copying ranges, building variants, tightening a cut, or generating an editorial changelist. Depth: docs/kernels/timeline-edit-kernel.md + docs/guides/editorial-decision-guide.md.
- Conform / Interchange — importing/relinking editorial, checking a conform against a reference, repairing reversed/retimed subclips, tracing grades across a re-conform, or QCing a conformed timeline. Depth: docs/kernels/timeline-conform-interchange-kernel.md.
- Delivery / Deliverable QC — preparing render jobs, validating render settings, QCing a finished render vs spec, building render manifests, expanding texted/textless/stems deliverables, verifying media ingest, or producing a provenance/episode report. Depth: docs/kernels/render-deliver-kernel.md.
- Fusion Composition — building or editing Fusion comps — titles, motion graphics, VFX, merges, masks, trackers. Depth: docs/kernels/fusion-composition-kernel.md.
- Audio / Fairlight — setting audio properties, syncing audio, isolating voice, generating subtitles, planning Fairlight tracks/buses, checking loudness, routing buses, or splitting/trimming/converting audio. Depth: docs/kernels/audio-fairlight-kernel.md.
- Media Pool / Ingest — importing media, building multicam timelines, organizing/relinking clips, normalizing metadata, or verifying/inventorying a card before ingest. Depth: docs/kernels/media-pool-ingest-kernel.md + docs/guides/multicam-setup-guide.md.
- Media Analysis — reading or analyzing source media (technical, visual, or transcription) to inform Resolve actions. Depth: docs/kernels/README.md + docs/guides/media-analysis-guide.md.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
