Get the name of the current project folder.
AI agents call get_current_project_folder to retrieve information from DaVinci Resolve MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a simple read operation to retrieve the current project folder name. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, or perform destructive operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal since it only exposes metadata about the current project state.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_current_project_folder' and description 'Get the name of the current project folder' indicate a query operation that retrieves information without modifying or executing anything.

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 get_current_project_folder:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_current_project_folder": {}
}
}get_current_project_folder is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Register the DaVinci Resolve MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_current_project_folder: 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.
get_current_project_folder is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_current_project_folder 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 get_current_project_folder. 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.
get_current_project_folder 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.
