What ti_regenerate_magic_mask does on DaVinci Resolve MCP
AI agents invoke ti_regenerate_magic_mask to trigger actions in DaVinci Resolve MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why ti_regenerate_magic_mask is rated High
This tool triggers a computational operation (regenerating a Magic Mask) on a timeline item in DaVinci Resolve. It executes an AI/processing task that modifies the state of a clip's mask data. While it writes mask data, the primary action is triggering an external operation/process within the video editing software.

The rule that runs ti_regenerate_magic_mask safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and DaVinci Resolve MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For ti_regenerate_magic_mask, this is the rule to start with:
ti_regenerate_magic_mask stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect DaVinci Resolve MCP, apply this rule, and every ti_regenerate_magic_mask call is checked against it from then on.
