What it does

Orientation and index for DaVinci Resolve MCP work, grading, editing, conforming, delivery, media analysis, and .drp/.drt/.drx file work, live in a running Resolve or offline with none open. Load this for a map of the domain skills, the live-vs-offline servers, and the cross-cutting safety rules. The per-domain skills (resolve-color / resolve-edit / resolve-conform / resolve-delivery / resolve-media-analysis) carry the depth and self-trigger on their own descriptions; use this as the map, or when a task spans several domains.

DaVinci Resolve MCP, Index

Orientation for any Resolve MCP task. This is the map, not the depth, each domain skill below carries its own routing and triggers on its own description. Open the one that matches, or use this when a task spans several domains. This skill does not auto-load the others; it points at them.

Two servers, compute offline, apply live

  • Live, davinci-resolve (Python): drives a running Resolve via the scripting API.
  • Advanced / offline, davinci-resolve-advanced (Node): authors .drp/.drt/.drx files and patches the project DB with no Resolve open.

Rule of thumb: compute grades, QC, and conform math offline; apply the result live. Node never drives Resolve.

Less-common domains (no dedicated skill, go straight to the kernel/tool)

These have real coverage but low enough traffic that they route through this index rather than their own skill:
