WHAT IT DOES

What export_burn_in_preset does on DaVinci Resolve MCP

AI agents use export_burn_in_preset 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.

RISK

Why export_burn_in_preset is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies a file on disk by exporting preset data. It is reversible (the file can be deleted or overwritten), making it a Write action rather than Destructive. The blast radius is low because exporting a preset configuration has no impact on video projects, timelines, or media—it only creates a new configuration file that can be easily managed or discarded.

From the tool's definition export_burn_in_preset: The tool exports (writes) a burn-in preset configuration to a file. The verb 'export' indicates data creation/serialization to persistent storage.
