Clear audio classification for all clips in a Media Pool folder (Resolve 21+). Args: folder_path: Path from root. Empty for current folder.
AI agents use folder_clear_audio_classification 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.
This tool modifies metadata (audio classification) for all clips in a folder by clearing it. It's a reversible write operation — audio classification can be re-applied — but it affects potentially many clips at once, giving it a medium blast radius. It does not delete media files or irreversibly destroy data, so Destructive is not warranted.

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 folder_clear_audio_classification:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"folder_clear_audio_classification": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "folder_clear_audio_classification_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}folder_clear_audio_classification 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 audio classification for all clips in a Media Pool folder (Resolve 21+). Args: folder_path: Path from root. Empty for current folder. 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 folder_clear_audio_classification: 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.
folder_clear_audio_classification 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 folder_clear_audio_classification 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 folder_clear_audio_classification. 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.
folder_clear_audio_classification 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.
