+
+An MCP server that adds the **DaVinci Resolve 21.1.2 scripting surfaces the
+mainstream Resolve MCP servers do not cover** — clip effects, effect
+properties, Paste-Attributes, frame export and media-pool folder lookups.
+
+It is deliberately an **extension, not a replacement**: register it alongside
+the other two Resolve MCP servers and you get a larger surface with no overlap —
+see [the full setup](#the-full-resolve-mcp-setup--three-servers-all-of-them).
+Everything it exposes is measured against a live Resolve, and calls that turn
+out to be broken are reported as broken rather than wrapped in a success.
+
+```
+effects              apply/list/remove/toggle/reorder clip effects
+clip_attrs           copy attributes between clips (Paste Attributes)
+export_frame         stills from a clip or media-pool item
+folder_ops           which bin does this clip/folder live in
+photo_albums         albums, photos, ratings, flags, versions, stills
+node_graph           node labels, colours, enable state, LUTs, cache
+project_extras       render presets, audio render formats, transcription
+camera_comparison    2x2 / split layouts, camera labels, markers
+clip_position        read placement + handle offsets; flags broken APIs
+resolve_ext_status   health check
+```
+
+## The full Resolve MCP setup — three servers, all of them
+
+Resolve is not covered by one MCP server. **Three independent servers do
+different jobs, and full coverage means running all three.** This project is the
+third; the other two are not optional extras.
+
+| Server | Origin | Tools | What it is for |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Blackmagic's own**<br>`ResolveMCP.exe` | **Ships with DaVinci Resolve 21** — nothing to download | 14 | A *meta-server*: it provides Resolve's scripting-API stubs and a Python sandbox (`run_script`, `search_scripting_api`, `get_whats_new`) plus LUT/DCTL management. It performs no Resolve actions itself. |
+| **community**<br>[`samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp`](https://github.com/samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp) | `npx` or git | 37<br>(390 with `--full`) | The workhorse: editing, media pool, render, markers, grading, Fusion — one granular tool per task. Ships a second `davinci-resolve-advanced` server (18 Node tools) for source-safe media analysis. |
+| **this project**<br>`resolve-ext` | pip | 10 | The gaps the other two leave — see the table below. |
+
+All three talk to the same Resolve through the same **single-client** scripting
+API. They coexist without overlap; registering one and wondering why a
+capability is missing is the usual disappointment.
+
+```bash
+# 1. Blackmagic's — already on disk, just register it:
+#    %ProgramFiles%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\ResolveMCP.exe   (Windows)
+#    /Applications/DaVinci Resolve/DaVinci Resolve.app/Contents/Applications/ResolveMCP
+#    /opt/resolve/bin/ResolveMCP                                       (Linux)
+
+# 2. the community server (use --clients manual when driving it non-interactively):
+npx davinci-resolve-mcp setup
+
+# 3. this project:
+pip install https://github.com/CaptRauti/ResolveMCP-ext/releases/download/v1.0.0/resolve_ext-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl
+resolve-ext doctor
+```
+
+Full procedure, per-platform paths, the Windows "Resolve is on another drive"
+case, and the failure modes of each: **[AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md)** — written so an
+AI agent can install all three unattended.
+
+## Why this exists
+
+DaVinci Resolve **21.1.2** (22 Oct 2026) added a batch of scripting APIs. The
+popular MCP servers do not implement them — verified two ways: searching their
+source for each symbol, and probing live Resolve objects with `hasattr` (a type
+stub documents the API; only the live object proves your build has it).
+
+| Resolve 21.1.2 symbol | In mainstream MCP servers |
+|---|---|
+| `Resolve.GetEffectsList` | absent |
+| `TimelineItem.AddEffect` / `GetEffects` / `DeleteEffects` | absent |
+| `Effect.GetInfo` / `Get/SetIsEnabled` / `Get/SetIndex` | absent |
+| `TimelineItem.CopyAttributes` | absent |
+| `TimelineItem.ExportFrame` / `MediaPoolItem.ExportFrame` | absent |
+| `MediaPoolItem.GetParentFolder` / `Folder.GetParentFolder` | absent |
+| `TimelineItem.Get/SetLeftOffset` / `GetPosition` | absent |
+| `Timeline.MoveItems` / `DeleteGaps` / `Get/SetIsEnabled` | absent |
+| **Photo Album APIs** (`PhotoAlbum`, `PhotoAlbumItem`, 53 methods) | absent |
+| `Graph.SetNodeLabel` / `Get/SetNodeColor` / `SetNodeEnabled` | absent |
+| `Project.GetAudioRenderFormats` / `GetAudioRenderCodecs` | absent |
+| `Project.UpdateRenderPreset` / `SetQuickExportEnabledForRenderPreset` | absent |
+| `MediaPoolItem.SetTranscription` | absent |
+
+`TimelineItem` alone exposes **113 methods** on 21.1.2; a large share of them
+were unreachable through MCP before this server.
+
+## Install
+
+> **Installing this with an AI agent?** Point it at
+> [AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md) — it is a step-by-step procedure written for agents,
+> including the failure cases. This section is the human-facing version.
+
+Requires **Python 3.10+** and **DaVinci Resolve Studio** (external scripting is
+a Studio feature — the free build refuses it).
+
+### From a release (recommended)
+
+Download the wheel from the [releases page][releases] and install it:
+
+```bash
+pip install resolve_ext-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl
+```
+
+The wheel is pure Python and platform-independent — the same file works on
+Windows, macOS and Linux.
+
+### From a git checkout
+
+```bash
+pip install git+https://github.com/CaptRauti/ResolveMCP-ext
+```
+
+Or from a local clone:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/CaptRauti/ResolveMCP-ext
+cd ResolveMCP-ext
+pip install .
+```
+
+`mcp` 2.x breaks FastMCP, so the dependency is pinned `<2`. That pin is in the
+package metadata — you do not need to add it yourself.
+
+### Verify the installation
+
+```bash
+resolve-ext doctor
+```
+
+```
+resolve-ext 1.0.0
+
+--- Python ---
+  3.12.4 at /usr/bin/python3
+  ok (3.10+)
+
+--- DaVinci Resolve scripting API ---
+platform      linux
+api_path      /opt/resolve/Developer/Scripting  (found)
+lib_path      /opt/resolve/libs/fusionscript.so  (found)
+
+--- Import test ---
+  ok: DaVinciResolveScript imports
+
+--- Live connection ---
+  ok: connected to Resolve; project = My Project
+
+--- Result ---
+  All checks passed.
+```
+
+`doctor` exits `0` when everything works and `1` otherwise, so it is usable in
+a setup script. When something is wrong it names the exact path that is missing
+and what to enable.
+
+### Register with your MCP client
+
+The server finds Resolve's scripting API by itself, so on a default
+installation there is **nothing to configure**:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "resolve-ext": { "command": "resolve-ext" }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For a non-standard Resolve location, or to see the explicit form, run:
+
+```bash
+resolve-ext env
+```
+
+which prints the configuration for the machine it runs on — including the exact
+`RESOLVE_SCRIPT_API`, `RESOLVE_SCRIPT_LIB` and `PYTHONPATH` values — as generic
+JSON and as a `hermes mcp add` command.
+
+When merging into an existing client config, the server entry sits **flat**
+under the client's own `mcpServers` key. Do not wrap it in a second
+`mcpServers` level — that silently disables tool discovery.
+
+### Resolve settings
+
+Resolve must be running with **Preferences → System → General → External
+scripting using → Local**.
+
+[releases]: https://github.com/CaptRauti/ResolveMCP-ext/releases
+
+## Tools
+
+### `effects`
+
+```
+list_available(media_type?)          video (default) | photo | audio
+list_applied(item_id?|name?, category?)
+apply(item_id?|name?, category, id)
+remove(item_id?|name?, category, indices?)
+set_enabled(item_id?|name?, index, enabled, category?)
+reorder(item_id?|name?, index, new_index, category?)
+```
+
+Address a timeline item with `item_id` (`GetUniqueId`) or with `name` plus the
+track it sits on (`track_type` default `video`, `track_index` default `1`).
+
+Always call `list_available` first — `apply` needs the `category` and `id` it
+returns. On a stock 21.1.2 Studio that is **36 fusion + 98 ofx** effects for
+`video`, plus the Fairlight set for `audio`. Fusion ids look like
+`Fusion/Effects/<category>/<name>`.
+
+### `clip_attrs`
+
+```
+options()                                    the full option vocabulary
+copy(source_id?|source_name?, target_ids?|target_names?, options, ...)
+read(item_id?|name?)
+```
+
+The API behind the Edit page's **Paste Attributes** — the lever that makes a
+per-camera look repeatable: grade one clip, push the same attributes onto every
+other clip from that camera.
+
+36 options in 6 groups (`clip`, `video`, `zoom_crop_flip`, `retime`,
+`grade_fusion`, `audio`). Shorthands: `copy_all_video`, `copy_all_audio`.
+
+```json
+{"colorCorrection": true, "allZoomAttributes": true,
+ "allCropAttributes": true, "videoPlugins": true}
+```
+
+### `export_frame`
+
+```
+item(item_id?|name?, frame_offset, output_type?, file_path?, format?, max_dimension?)
+media(clip_id, frame_offset, output_type?, file_path?, format?, max_dimension?)
+timeline(frame_offset, ...)     # broken on 21.1.2 — see below
+```
+
+`item` and `media` are verified working. The offset is 0-based and must be
+below the item's duration. `output_type`: `file` (needs `file_path`) or
+`encodedString` (default); for the latter the base64 is decoded and written to
+`out/` next to the server, with only a short prefix returned inline.
+
+### `folder_ops`
+
+```
+parent_of_clip(clip_id)              which bin holds this clip
+parent_of_folder(path?|folder_id?)   a folder's parent (root has none)
+path(clip_id?|folder_id?)            "Master/Sub/Bin"
+find_clip(clip_id)                   locate a clip anywhere in the tree
+```
+
+### `photo_albums`
+
+```
+list() / current() / set_current(album_id?|name?)
+create(name) / create_from_photos(name, clip_ids) / delete(album_ids?) / rename(...)
+quick_export_presets() / render_settings(settings?)
+photos(album_id?|name?) / add_photos(clip_ids) / remove_photos(photo_ids) / current_item()
+stills(album_id?|name?, all_photos?)
+photo(photo_id) / rate(photo_id, stars) / flag(photo_id, color?|clear?)
+clip_color(photo_id, color?|clear?) / versions(photo_id)
+add_version / load_version / delete_version
+copy_grade / effects_list / effect_apply / effect_remove / fusion_comps / fusion_add
+```
+
+Verified working on 21.1.2.10: **9/9 `PhotoAlbum` methods, 20/20
+`PhotoAlbumItem` methods**, `CreatePhotoAlbumFromPhotos`, persistent ratings /
+flags / versions, `AddFusionComp` on a photo.
+
+`add_photos` is **broken upstream** (`AddToPhotoAlbum` adds nothing) — the
+action verifies by reading the album back and tells you so. Use
+**`create_from_photos`**, which is the verified path.
+
+> Note the split: the album *listing* methods live on `Project`, the
+> *creating/adding* ones on `MediaPool`, and Resolve answers none of them. The
+> tool resolves the right object per call, because a Resolve proxy makes
+> `hasattr` report every method on every object.
+
+### `node_graph`
+
+```
+info(item_id?|name?|photo_id?)        node list with labels and colours
+label(node_index, label)              "" clears the label
+color(node_index, color)              "" clears the colour
+enable(node_index, enabled)
+tools(node_index)                     which Fusion/OFX tools sit in the node
+lut(node_index, lut_path?)            read, or set
+cache(node_index, mode?)              read, or set
+reset_colors()                        photo graphs only
+reset_grades(confirm=true)            destructive — clears the whole grade
+```
+
+Valid node colours: Orange, Apricot, Yellow, Lime, Olive, Green, Teal, Navy,
+Blue, Purple, Violet, Pink, Tan, Beige, Brown, Chocolate.
+
+Target a timeline clip by `item_id`/`name`, or a photo by `photo_id`. Labels
+and colours verified persistent across calls.
+
+### `project_extras`
+
+```
+capabilities()                             what this build answers at all

+
+### `camera_comparison`
+
+```
+detect()                 which camera each clip is (from its name)

+markers()                timeline markers naming each camera
+sort_to_bins()           file clips into per-camera bins by name
+build_timeline()         one video track per camera, scenes synced
+read()                   current transform of every clip
+```
+
+Camera detection, longest prefix first:
+
+| prefix | camera | marker |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ace*` | Insta360 AcePro | Orange |
+| `go*` | Insta360 Go Ultra | Green |
+| `luna*` | Insta360 Luna Ultra | Cyan |
+| `x*` | Insta360 X5 | Blue |
+| `vid_*` | Handy (Android file) | Gray |
+
+**Why this tool exists:** the loose scripts this replaces positioned clips
+with `SetProperty("PositionX", …)` / `"PositionY"`. MEASURED on 21.1.2.10 those
+keys return **`False` and are silently ignored** — `GetProperty` gives back
+`False` too. Zoom worked, the positioning never did. The real keys are **`Pan`**
+(x, +right) and **`Tilt`** (y, **+up**), in pixels. Every write here is read
+back, and a transform that does not stick is reported as a failure.
+
+Verified: on a 3840x2160 timeline `grid_2x2` puts AcePro at `Pan -960, Tilt
+540` (top-left) and Go Ultra at `Pan 960, Tilt 540` (top-right), read back.
+
+### `clip_position`
+
+```
+get(item_id?|name?)      position + left/right handle offsets   (safe, read-only)
+enabled()                timeline enabled state
+```
+
+`set` / `move` / `set_offset` / `delete_gaps` exist in the code but are
+**disabled and transparent about why** — they wrap Resolve calls that are broken
+or destructive on 21.1.2. See the next section.
+
+## Measured behaviour on Resolve 21.1.2.10
+
+Everything below was measured against a live Studio build, not read from docs.
+`tests/` reproduces all of it — 132 assertions across four suites, 0 failures.
+
+**Working**
+
+| Call | Result |
+|---|---|
+| `Resolve.GetEffectsList` | 36 fusion + 98 ofx (video), Fairlight (audio) |
+| `TimelineItem.AddEffect` / `GetEffects` / `DeleteEffects` | verified end to end |
+| `Effect.GetInfo` / `GetIsEnabled` / `SetIsEnabled` / `GetIndex` | verified |
+| `TimelineItem.CopyAttributes` | verified with changed source values |
+| `TimelineItem.ExportFrame` | offsets `0..duration-1` succeed, beyond is refused |
+| `MediaPoolItem.ExportFrame` | verified, file written |
+| `MediaPoolItem` / `Folder.GetParentFolder` | verified |
+| `Timeline.GetIsEnabled` / `SetIsEnabled` | verified |
+
+**Broken or destructive — do not use**
+
+| Call | Measured behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `TimelineItem.SetPosition` | Returns `False` for **every** input — real video clips and stills, int and float `startFrame`, a no-op equal to the current frame, both `moveLinkedItems` values. `Timeline.MoveItems` behaves identically, while `SetCurrentTimecode` succeeds in the same session. |
+| `Timeline.ExportFrame` | **Works** — `frameOffset` is relative to the timeline start, valid `0..duration-1`. Verified on a 480-frame timeline: 0..479 succeed, 480 is refused. An absolute frame is always refused, which reads like a failure. An earlier release listed this as broken; that was a bad measurement on a timeline whose metadata contradicted its contents. |
+| `Timeline.DeleteGaps` | **Works** — verified `[86400, 86600, 86800]` → `[86400, 86520, 86640]`, gaps closed. It does nothing on a timeline that reports `StartFrame == EndFrame` while holding clips; see the `AppendToTimeline` entry below. |
+| `TimelineItem.SetLeftOffset` | **Destructive.** On a clip at frame 400 with duration 120, `SetLeftOffset(5)` moved it to **-85995** and inflated the duration to **86515** frames: it *extends the clip from source media*, it does not nudge the edit point. Setting the offset back to `0` did **not** restore the original position (the clip stayed at -86000). There is no API-level undo. |
+| `MediaPool.AddToPhotoAlbum` | Adds nothing and returns an empty list. Tested four ways: immediately after `CreateEmptyPhotoAlbum`, with a 2 s pause, after an explicit `SetCurrentPhotoAlbum` that `GetCurrentPhotoAlbum` confirmed, and with a fresh album each time — zero photos every run. `MediaPool.CreatePhotoAlbumFromPhotos` VERIFIED working (photos land and read back), so use that. |
+| `Graph.ResetAllNodeColors` | Exists on a photo album item's graph but **not** on a timeline clip's graph (`NoneType is not callable`). Clearing a colour with `SetNodeColor(i, "")` works on both. |
+| `MediaPoolItem.GetNodeGraph` | Not callable on 21.1.2.10 (while `TimelineItem.GetNodeGraph` and `PhotoAlbumItem.GetNodeGraph` both work). Put the clip on a timeline and address it by `item_id`. |
+| `Project.UpdateRenderPreset` | Returns `False` for all 37 factory presets that `GetRenderPresetList` reports (`'H.264 Master'` included). `Project.SaveRenderPreset` does not exist in the API, so a user preset cannot be created from scripting to test against. GUI-dependent at best. |
+| `Project.SetQuickExportEnabledForRenderPreset` | Same shape: `False` for a factory preset. |
+| `MediaPoolItem.SetTranscription` | Returns `False` for a PNG still **and** for a real video clip with no transcript, with both `'01:00:00:00'` and `'00:00:00:00'` start timecodes. It *replaces* a transcript, so it appears unable to create one where none exists. |
+| `MediaPoolItem.SetClipColor` (photo items) | Returned `False` for `'Sky'` on a photo album item while the colour list is documented; `ClearClipColor` works. The action reports the rejection rather than assuming success. |
+| `Folder.AddSubFolder` / `Folder.MoveClips` | Do not exist. Both live on **MediaPool** (`mp.AddSubFolder(parent, name)`, `mp.MoveClips(clips, folder)`) — verified that `MoveClips` really relocates the clip and returns `True`, not a false success. Same object-split as the photo-album API. |
+| `TimelineItem.SetProperty("PositionX"/"PositionY")` | **Silently ignored** — both the setter and the getter return `False`. Use `Pan` / `Tilt` (pixels, +x right, +y up). This is what broke the project's own grid scripts: zoom applied, positions never did. |
+| `TimelineItem.AddMarker(0)` on the clip at timeline position 0 | Returns `True` and writes nothing — `tl.GetMarkers()` shows the count unchanged and no marker by that name. **`Timeline.AddMarker(0)` works.** Markers are therefore placed through the timeline, never through the item. An earlier release blamed `Timeline.AddMarker`; that was the same bad setup as above. |
+| `AppendToTimeline` with `recordFrame` below `StartFrame` | **Silently accepted.** Passing `0/200/400` on a timeline that starts at `86400` places the clips at 0/200/400 — outside the timeline's own range — and the timeline's metadata is not reconciled: it reports `StartFrame == EndFrame` (duration 0) while holding three clips. It survives `SetProperty`, closing and reopening. On such a timeline `DeleteGaps` and `SetLeftOffset` do nothing and `Timeline.ExportFrame` refuses every offset, so it looks like three broken APIs. Assert `recordFrame >= GetStartFrame()`. |
+| `AppendToTimeline` with `startFrame` == `endFrame` | Returns `None` and places nothing. With single-frame media (`GetClipProperty("Frames") == "1"`) the natural `endFrame` is `0`, so a "correct" 0..0 range silently fails. Omitting `endFrame` lets Resolve use the whole clip and works. |
+
+**Gotchas**
+
+- `TimelineItem.GetProperty("Position")` returns a **bool** on 21.1.2, not
+  coordinates. The position lives in **`Pan` / `Tilt`** (x/y in pixels).
+  `RotationAngle` is degrees, `Opacity` 0–100, crop values 0–1, `ZoomX/Y` a
+  multiplier. All are writable — verify with a read-back.
+- Setting a timeline's `SetIsEnabled(False)` makes `GetCurrentTimeline()` return
+  `None`, so every later call reports "No current timeline" until it is switched
+  back on in the GUI.
+- `MediaPoolItem.GetParentFolder` is only useful with a recursive walk of the
+  media pool: `ImportMedia` drops clips into the currently *selected* bin, so a
+  root-only lookup reports "not found" while the clip exists one level down.
+
+## Testing
+
+Two layers, because DaVinci Resolve cannot run in CI.
+
+### Offline — no Resolve needed, this is what CI runs
+
+```bash
+python tests/test_offline.py
+```
+
+Checks that `server.py` imports **without** Resolve present (so `pip install`
+followed by `resolve-ext --help` cannot fail), that all ten tools register,
+that the CLI returns the right exit codes, and that the platform path
+resolution produces the correct paths for the OS it finds itself on. Runs on
+Windows, macOS and Linux — see `.github/workflows/test.yml`.
+
+### Live — needs a running Resolve Studio
+
+```bash
+python tests/test_e2e.py        # core tools
+python tests/test_phase1.py     # photo albums + node graph
+python tests/test_extras.py     # render presets, audio formats, transcription
+python tests/test_camera.py     # camera layouts, labels, markers, sorting
+
+# point at your own media if ~/Pictures has fewer than 3 PNGs
+RESOLVE_EXT_TEST_MEDIA="D:/stills/*.png" python tests/test_camera.py
+```
+
+**162 assertions, 0 failures** against Resolve Studio 21.1.2.10
+(30 offline + 132 live).
+
+Each suite creates its own scratch project, exercises the tools and deletes it
+again — they never touch your other projects. Two habits are deliberate:
+
+- Assertions check that values **changed and read back**, not merely that no
+  error was returned. A write test that passes because nothing moved proves
+  nothing; that is exactly how `DeleteGaps` and `AddToPhotoAlbum` were caught
+  reporting success while doing nothing.
+- Known-broken calls are asserted to *fail honestly*. If a future Resolve build
+  fixes `AddToPhotoAlbum`, its test will start failing — which is the signal to
+  re-measure and update this README, not a broken test.
+
+## Design notes
+
+- **Extension, not fork.** Nothing here duplicates a mainstream server's
+  surface, so both can run side by side without the model having to choose.
+- **Broken APIs are reported, not hidden.** Where Resolve's own call lies
+  (`DeleteGaps` returning `True`), the tool says so with the measurement
+  attached, rather than emitting a success the caller cannot trust.
+- **Destructive APIs are not exposed.** `SetLeftOffset` cannot be undone through
+  the API, so it stays out of the surface and `get` remains read-only.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- DaVinci Resolve **Studio 21.1.2+** (earlier builds lack these symbols)
+- Windows / macOS / Linux wherever the Resolve scripting API is available
+- Python 3.10+ and `mcp[cli]>=1.30,<2`
