# timeline_get_node_graph Get the node graph for the current timeline. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `timeline_get_node_graph`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/timeline-get-node-graph ## Facts - Tool: `timeline_get_node_graph` - Server: DaVinci Resolve MCP (`samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "timeline_get_node_graph", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why timeline_get_node_graph is rated Low This tool retrieves and returns the node graph structure from the current timeline in DaVinci Resolve. It performs no modifications, deletions, or external operations—it is purely informational. The blast radius of misuse is minimal since reading timeline data cannot cause harm to the project or system. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'timeline_get_node_graph' and description 'Get the node graph for the current timeline' indicate a retrieval operation with the verb 'Get' explicitly denoting data query without modification." ## Use case AI agents call timeline_get_node_graph to retrieve information from DaVinci Resolve MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches DaVinci Resolve MCP: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "timeline_get_node_graph": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on DaVinci Resolve MCP (354) - `archive_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/archive-project.md - `clear_clip_flags` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/clear-clip-flags.md - `clear_clip_transcription` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/clear-clip-transcription.md - `clear_folder_transcription` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/clear-folder-transcription.md - `clear_transcription` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/clear-transcription.md - `close_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/close-project.md - `delete_burn_in_preset` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-burn-in-preset.md - `delete_clip_marker_at_frame` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-clip-marker-at-frame.md - `delete_clip_marker_by_custom_data` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-clip-marker-by-custom-data.md - `delete_clip_markers_by_color` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-clip-markers-by-color.md - `delete_clip_mattes` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-clip-mattes.md - `delete_color_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-color-group.md - `delete_keyframe` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-keyframe.md - `delete_layout_preset_tool` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-layout-preset-tool.md - `delete_media_pool_clips` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-media-pool-clips.md - `delete_media_pool_folders` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-media-pool-folders.md - `delete_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-project.md - `delete_project_folder` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-project-folder.md - `delete_render_job` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-render-job.md - `delete_render_preset` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-render-preset.md - `delete_stills_from_album` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-stills-from-album.md - `delete_timelines_by_id` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-timelines-by-id.md - `delete_user_preferences_preset` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/delete-user-preferences-preset.md - `folder_clear_transcription` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/folder-clear-transcription.md - `folder_remove_motion_blur` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/folder-remove-motion-blur.md - `graph_reset_all_grades` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/graph-reset-all-grades.md - `quit_resolve` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/quit-resolve.md - `ti_clear_flags` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/ti-clear-flags.md - `ti_delete_fusion_comp` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/ti-delete-fusion-comp.md - `ti_delete_marker_at_frame` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp/ti-delete-marker-at-frame.md - …and 324 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/samuelgursky-davinci-resolve-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
