Editors who want to automate repetitive timeline, media and render work in Resolve.

## Avoid if
You use the free edition and want the standard setup; external scripting needs Resolve Studio, and the free edition requires the in-app bridge instead.

## About DaVinci Resolve MCP Server
This community MCP server controls DaVinci Resolve Studio through Blackmagic's official scripting API, with full API coverage and guarded helpers for editing, media pool organisation, render setup, review markers, grading, Fusion, Fairlight and project tasks. A local browser control panel inspects Resolve's state and source-safe media analysis. The free edition works through a separate in-app bridge.
