Find marker by custom data. Args: custom_data: Custom data to search for. item_index: 0-based item index. Default: 0.
AI agents call ti_get_marker_by_custom_data to retrieve information from DaVinci Resolve MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a read-only lookup operation on existing markers using custom data as a search criterion. It returns information about markers without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The function signature (search parameters only, no mutation arguments) and the 'Find' verb confirm this is a non-destructive retrieval operation, placing it in the Read category with low severity.
