## Description

You can use this MCP to handle the messy details of creative asset permissions. Instead of manually checking if you have the rights to use a specific track or image, your AI client can evaluate your current permissions against your intended use. It identifies exactly where your coverage falls short, such as missing territory rights or expired licenses. 

Once a gap is found, the MCP helps you bridge it. You can have your agent draft specific outreach messages to rights-holders to request new permissions. It also keeps your records clean by logging how assets are used, which is essential for compliance audits. If an asset is currently on hold, the MCP determines the specific sequence of actions required to get it cleared. This moves your team from guessing about legal status to following a clear, actionable roadmap for every piece of media in your library.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Evaluate my current assets and tell me what is missing for a social media campaign.
```

**Response:** 
```
The clearance plan identifies that Asset ID 'IMG_001' has only Tier 2 (Restricted) clearance, which covers digital use but lacks the specific territory rights required for your global social media campaign. A release hold is active for this asset.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Generate a message to contact the rights-holder for the music track in our video.
```

**Response:** 
```
Subject: Permission Request for Music Asset. Dear Rights-Holder, we are requesting permission to use your musical work for a digital advertisement on YouTube and Instagram. We will provide attribution as follows: [Attribution Preference].
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the next step to release the assets currently on hold?
```

**Response:** 
```
The critical path requires first securing the Tier 4 (No Clearance) status for Asset 'VID_99' via the outreach template, followed by verifying the Tier 2 permissions for Asset 'IMG_42'.
