# set_clip_third_party_metadata Set third-party metadata on a clip. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `set_clip_third_party_metadata`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/set-clip-third-party-metadata ## Facts - Tool: `set_clip_third_party_metadata` - Server: DaVinci Resolve MCP (`samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "set_clip_third_party_metadata", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why set_clip_third_party_metadata is rated Medium This tool modifies metadata associated with a video clip in DaVinci Resolve. While metadata changes are generally reversible through the UI or by calling the function again with different values, an agent that incorrectly modifies metadata on important clips could cause data loss or confusion about clip properties. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'set_clip_third_party_metadata' and description 'Set third-party metadata on a clip' indicate modification of clip metadata. The verb 'set' shows data is being written/modified." ## Use case AI agents use set_clip_third_party_metadata 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
