davinci-resolve-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/release-check/SKILL.md

release-check is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp. It costs 38 tokens per session (339 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checklist-driven skill for releasing a new version of the DaVinci Resolve MCP server, a tool connection that lets software work with Resolve. It follows the repository's release-process document.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for version bumps, updating all required files, running the specified validation, creating a Git tag, and preparing the GitHub Release.
Why use it?
It reduces missed version updates and validation steps that can make a published release inconsistent or fail checks. It also keeps the release process tied to one current source of truth.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for Claude Code and Codex: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter, but also agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on davinci-resolve-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

About the project

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.

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

release-check 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 12d 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

Release Check

CLAUDE.md is explicit: this repository does not maintain a separate release checklist here or anywhere else — docs/process/release-process.md is the single source of truth for version bumps, validation, tags, and GitHub Releases. This skill does not restate that checklist; restating it would create a second copy that can drift from the original.

Steps

  1. Read docs/process/release-process.md in full, current from disk — not from memory of a prior run. It changes as the release process hardens.
  2. Follow it top to bottom: version selection, every file under "Files To Update," the "Required Validation" section, and the tag/GitHub Release steps at the end.
  3. Report progress against that doc's own sections as you go, so the user can see which step you're on. Do not invent extra steps or skip any listed file — the doc calls out drift guards (test_api_limitations_doc, test_panel_docs_drift, etc.) that fail CI if a listed file is missed.
  4. If the doc's content is genuinely ambiguous or conflicts with the current repo state, stop and ask rather than guessing — this is release engineering on a published package, not exploratory work.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
