# add_clip_flag Add a flag to a Media Pool clip. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `add_clip_flag`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/add-clip-flag ## Facts - Tool: `add_clip_flag` - Server: DaVinci Resolve MCP (`samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "add_clip_flag", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why add_clip_flag is rated Medium This action creates or modifies clip metadata (flags) without removing, destroying, or executing code. Flags can be added, changed, or removed without permanent data loss, making it a Write operation. The severity is low because the blast radius of misuse is minimal—flagging incorrect clips would only affect organization/workflow, not destroy content or cause financial harm. From the tool's own definition: "The tool 'add_clip_flag' is described as adding a flag to a Media Pool clip. Flags are metadata markers that categorize or label clips within the media organization system. This is a reversible modification of clip properties." ## Use case AI agents use add_clip_flag to create or update resources in DaVinci Resolve MCP, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your DaVinci Resolve MCP environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
