## Why ti_clear_flags is rated Critical

Clearing flags removes metadata markers from a timeline item. While not catastrophic, this action deletes existing flag data and cannot be easily undone, making it Destructive rather than Write. The blast radius is medium as it affects project metadata but not raw media files.

From the tool's own definition: "'Clear flags from a timeline item' — removing/clearing flags is an irreversible deletion of metadata annotations on a timeline item"

## Use case

AI agents call ti_clear_flags to permanently remove resources in DaVinci Resolve MCP, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches DaVinci Resolve MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "ti_clear_flags"
  ]
}
```
