Set the label of a still in a gallery album. Args: album_index: 0-based album index. still_index: 0-based still index. label: New label for the still.
AI agents use set_still_label 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 creates or modifies data (the label of a still) in a reversible manner. It does not execute code, delete data, or trigger external operations. The blast radius is minimal—a mislabeled still can be easily corrected by relabeling. This fits the Write category with low severity due to the trivial nature of the modification (metadata only, no structural or destructive changes).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_still_label' and description 'Set the label of a still in a gallery album' indicate modification of metadata. The operation modifies label data associated with a still image in a gallery album, which is a reversible change to existing data.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access set_still_label 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_still_label:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"set_still_label": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "set_still_label_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}set_still_label 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.

Set the label of a still in a gallery album. Args: album_index: 0-based album index. still_index: 0-based still index. label: New label for the still. 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 set_still_label: 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.
set_still_label 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 set_still_label 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 set_still_label. 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.
set_still_label 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.
