DaVinci Resolve MCP Server

# DaVinci Resolve MCP Configuration Templates This directory contains configuration templates for integrating DaVinci Resolve MCP with different AI assistant clients. ## ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Path Configuration Required **All template files require you to replace the placeholder paths with your actual paths to the repository.** The templates contain placeholders like `${PROJECT_ROOT}` that **MUST** be replaced with your actual filesystem paths. Cursor and other tools **do not** automatically resolve these variables. For example: - Replace `${PROJECT_ROOT}` with `/Users/username/davinci-resolve-mcp` on macOS - Replace `${PROJECT_ROOT}` with `C:\Users\username\davinci-resolve-mcp` on Windows **Failure to replace these placeholders is the most common cause of connection problems.** ## Available Templates ### Cursor Integration `cursor-mcp-config.template.json` - Template for configuring Cursor AI to use the DaVinci Resolve MCP server. To use this template: 1. Copy the contents to your Cursor MCP configuration file: - macOS: `~/.cursor/mcp.json` - Windows: `%APPDATA%\Cursor\mcp.json` 2. Replace the placeholders with your actual paths: - `${PROJECT_ROOT}` - Path to the DaVinci Resolve MCP repository Example (macOS): ```json { "mcpServers": { "davinci-resolve": { "name": "DaVinci Resolve MCP", "command": "/Users/username/davinci-resolve-mcp/venv/bin/python", "args": ["/Users/username/davinci-resolve-mcp/resolve_mcp_server.py"] } } } ``` ### Claude Desktop Integration `claude-desktop-config.template.json` - Template for configuring Claude Desktop to use the DaVinci Resolve MCP server. To use this template: - Copy the template to your Claude Desktop configuration directory (location varies by installation) - Windows - %appdata%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json - Rename it to `claude_desktop_config.json` - Replace the placeholders with your actual paths: - `${PROJECT_ROOT}` - Path to the DaVinci Resolve MCP repository ## Automatic Setup For automatic configuration, use the appropriate launch script which will set up the configuration for you: ```bash # For Cursor ./scripts/mcp_resolve-cursor_start # For Claude Desktop ./scripts/mcp_resolve-claude_start ``` Or use the universal launcher: ```bash ./scripts/mcp_resolve_launcher.sh
