apvlv davinci resolve mcp
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with DaVinci Resolve and Fusion
WHAT IT CONNECTS
What apvlv davinci resolve mcp gives an AI Agent
- Two-way communication: Connect Claude AI to DaVinci Resolve through the MCP protocol
- Project management: Create, open, and manage DaVinci Resolve projects
- Timeline manipulation: Create, modify, and navigate timelines
- Media management: Import, organize, and manage media in the Media Pool
- Fusion integration: Create and modify Fusion compositions
- Scene inspection: Get detailed information about the current DaVinci Resolve project
- Code execution: Run arbitrary Python code in DaVinci Resolve from Claude
- DaVinci Resolve Studio (version 17 or higher recommended)
- Python 3.8 or higher
- Claude Desktop (for AI integration)
- Clone this repository:
- Install the required dependencies:
- Install the MCP server in Claude Desktop:
- Start DaVinci Resolve

SECURITY
An MCP listing is not a security review
An MCP server may receive model context, credentials, local files, or permission to call external systems. Review its code, requested environment variables, network behavior, package provenance, and maintenance status before connecting it to an agent.
