How to control set_gallery_album_name ↓

AI agents use set_gallery_album_name 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.

Medium Risk

This tool creates or modifies metadata (an album name) in a reversible manner. The user can change the name back at any time. It does not delete data, execute arbitrary code, trigger external operations, or involve financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states it 'Set[s] the name of the current gallery album' with a parameter for 'New album name.' This is a direct modification operation.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access set_gallery_album_name gives an agent:

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 set_gallery_album_name:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "set_gallery_album_name": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "set_gallery_album_name_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

set_gallery_album_name 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.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
