WHAT IT DOES

What load_cloud_project does on DaVinci Resolve MCP

AI agents call load_cloud_project to retrieve information from DaVinci Resolve MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why load_cloud_project is rated Low

The tool retrieves an existing cloud project for use in DaVinci Resolve. This is a read operation with no side effects—it does not modify, create, delete, or execute arbitrary commands. The user must already have access to the cloud project, and loading it does not change its state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'load_cloud_project' and description 'Load a cloud project from DaVinci Resolve cloud' indicate retrieval of existing project data without modification. 'Load' implies reading/opening, not creating or destroying.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs load_cloud_project safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and DaVinci Resolve MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For load_cloud_project, this is the rule to start with:

load_cloud_project Allowed

load_cloud_project is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "load_cloud_project": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect DaVinci Resolve MCP, apply this rule, and every load_cloud_project call is checked against it from then on.
