README

DaVinci Resolve MCP Server

Talk to your timeline. Control DaVinci Resolve with natural language through Claude — browse projects, swap clips, color grade, render for YouTube, and see what's in any frame with AI vision. From your desk or from your phone, anywhere in the world.

You:    "Replace the b-roll at 13:22 with the South Pole takeoff shot"
Claude: Done. Replaced AOA_CLIP_04 with A663C012_SOUTH_POLE_TAKE_OFF on V2.
        Same position, same duration, video only — your interview audio is untouched.

What This Is

An MCP server that connects Claude to a running DaVinci Resolve instance. 53 tools across 11 categories give Claude full read/write access to your projects, timelines, media pool, color page, and render queue — plus AI-powered frame analysis via Moondream.

This isn't a toy. It edits. It replaced a clip on a multi-track documentary timeline, matched the duration, preserved the audio, and exported the result for YouTube. All through conversation.

What You Can Do

Edit by talking

"Open the tutorial project"
"Switch to the Full Documentary timeline"
"What clips are on V2?"
"Replace clip 2 on V2 with the milky way shot"
"Zoom in to 120% on the interview clip"
"Add a blue marker here that says 'Great take'"
"Export this for YouTube"

See through your timeline with AI vision

"What's in this frame?"
→ A wide shot of a beach in St. Maarten with an airplane on final approach,
  turquoise water, and spectators watching from behind a chain-link fence.

"Is there a person at the podium?"
→ Yes, there is a person standing at the podium on the left side of the frame.

"How many people are visible?"
→ 4

Control Resolve from your phone

The server runs over HTTP with a Cloudflare tunnel, so you can edit from your couch, your car, or another continent. Same tools, same capabilities — just talking to Claude on your phone.

The 53 Tools

Category	Count	What they do
Connection	4	Status, page navigation, reconnect
Project	6	List, load, save, create projects, read/write settings
Timeline	8	List/switch timelines, playhead control, track inspection, create new
Media	5	Browse media pool, import clips, create bins, append to timeline
Editing	7	Transform, speed, enable/disable, compound clips, delete clips, replace clips
Color	6	Apply LUTs, create/load color versions, export grades
Markers	3	Add, list, delete timeline markers
Titles	2	Insert Fusion Text+ titles, modify text content
Render	6	Quick export (YouTube/Vimeo/TikTok), custom render jobs, export EDL/FCPXML
Fusion	3	Access Fusion compositions and tools
Vision	3	AI scene description, object detection, visual Q&A

Quick Start

Prerequisites

DaVinci Resolve Studio (paid — the scripting API is not available in the free version of Resolve)
Python 3.10+ (tested with 3.14)
A Moondream API key (free tier available — for AI vision features). Sign up at console.moondream.ai to get your key. Moondream charges per API call, but the free tier is generous for normal editing use.

1. Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/guycochran/resolve-mcp-server.git
cd resolve-mcp-server
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Configure your API key

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your Moondream API key

3. Add to Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop MCP config (~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "resolve": {
      "command": "/path/to/resolve-mcp-server/start.sh"
    }
  }
}

4. Open Resolve and start talking

"What project am I working on?"

That's it. Claude can no
