davinci-resolve-mcp is an MCP server that lets AI assistants control DaVinci Resolve Studio through its scripting API, including editing, media organization, rendering, grading, and other project tasks. It is for users who want agents to operate Resolve and inspect media through a local control panel. The catalogue entries support agent workflows for this Resolve integration.
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.

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 | $0.00038 | $0.00363 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00181 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00073 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00036 |
Grade A, and why
resolve-color 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 7d 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
Resolve Color / Grade work. Apply when: grading, correcting, shot matching, developing looks, or applying/modifying LUTs, CDLs, DRX grades, or copied grades.
Two servers — compute offline, apply live:
- Live (running Resolve,
davinci-resolve): timeline_item_color (grade_boundary_report / safe_set_cdl / safe_apply_drx / grade_version_*), graph, gallery_stills, color_group - Offline (.drp/.drt/.drx + DB, no Resolve,
davinci-resolve-advanced): drx (match_to_reference, skin_match, shot_match, grade_transfer, cdl_io, lut_apply, relayout, scope_read, verify_grade, …), project_db - Key rule: Frame-first — inspect Resolve-rendered frames before applying any grade/look/LUT/CDL/DRX. Compute offline, apply live. drx generate/merge default to space="ui"; a warnings array means a hue curve rendered FLAT. safe_apply_drx defaults to V1/item0 — pass explicit track/item indices and back up a still first.
Depth: docs/kernels/color-grade-kernel.md + docs/guides/color-decision-guide.md. On-demand in any MCP client: the /color_grade_workflow slash prompt. Portable skill: resolve-color in .agents/skills/. Never modify/transcode/derive source media (AGENTS.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.

resolve-color is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp (2,568 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 363 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
