cursorrules

Project rules for a Python server that connects coding agents to DaVinci Resolve, a video editing and color-grading application. They describe the server's tool coverage and require source media to remain unchanged during analysis.

In plain words
What is it for?
For guiding Resolve automation and read-only media analysis with tools such as FFprobe and FFmpeg, which inspect media files.
Why use it?
They prevent analysis from accidentally modifying, converting, or creating copies of original media files unless the user explicitly asks for it.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

cursorrules 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

DaVinci Resolve MCP Server — Cursor Rules

Project

Python MCP server (30 compound tools, 328 granular tools in --full mode) for controlling DaVinci Resolve via its Scripting API. See AGENTS.md for full project overview and the README for the 109-action kernel coverage map.

Critical Rule: Source Media Integrity

NEVER modify, transcode, convert, or create derivatives of source media files unless the user explicitly requests it. All analysis is read-only. See docs/media-analysis-guide.md for the complete media analysis workflow and rationale.

Media Analysis

When working with media files, use FFprobe/FFmpeg to analyze (read-only) before taking actions in Resolve. The full guide is at docs/media-analysis-guide.md.

Key Files

  • src/server.py — Main compound MCP server (30 tools)
  • src/resolve_mcp_server.py — Full server (328 tools)
  • src/utils/ — Platform detection, Resolve connection, helpers
  • docs/media-analysis-guide.md — Media analysis workflow guide
  • install.py — Universal installer for 10+ MCP clients
Changes

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.

cursorrules is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills (6 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 241 tokens to every session, about $0.0012 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
