Clear mark in/out points for a clip. Args: clip_id: Unique ID of the clip.
AI agents use clear_clip_mark_in_out 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.
Clearing mark in/out points modifies the clip's editing state by removing previously set markers. This is a reversible modification (points can be re-set), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. Misuse could disrupt editing workflows but does not permanently delete media.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access clear_clip_mark_in_out gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and DaVinci Resolve MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for clear_clip_mark_in_out:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"clear_clip_mark_in_out": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "clear_clip_mark_in_out_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}clear_clip_mark_in_out stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Clear mark in/out points for a clip. Args: clip_id: Unique ID of the clip. It is categorised as a Write tool in the DaVinci Resolve MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the DaVinci Resolve MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for clear_clip_mark_in_out: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches DaVinci Resolve MCP. Nothing to install.
clear_clip_mark_in_out is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the clear_clip_mark_in_out rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for clear_clip_mark_in_out. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
clear_clip_mark_in_out is provided by the DaVinci Resolve MCP server (samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
