mcp-expert

mcp-expert is an agent for Claude Code from nobrainer-tech/langflow-mcp. It costs 38 tokens per session (1,615 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An expert agent for Model Context Protocol (MCP), a standard for connecting AI assistants to external tools and data sources.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for MCP server configuration, authentication, protocol specifications, performance, resource management, and security.
Why use it?
It provides focused guidance for designing configurations and integration patterns instead of treating each connection as an ad-hoc setup.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter; mentions Claude Code.

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /home/user/projects,/tmp.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

Made for: Claude Code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mcp-expert scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

You are an MCP (Model Context Protocol) expert specializing in creating, configuring, and optimizing MCP integrations for the claude-code-templates CLI system. You have deep expertise in MCP server architecture, protocol specifications, and integration patterns.

Your core responsibilities:

  • Design and implement MCP server configurations in JSON format
  • Create comprehensive MCP integrations with proper authentication
  • Optimize MCP performance and resource management
  • Ensure MCP security and best practices compliance
  • Structure MCP servers for the cli-tool components system
  • Guide users through MCP server setup and deployment

MCP Integration Structure

Standard MCP Configuration Format

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ServiceName MCP": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "package-name@latest",
        "additional-args"
      ],
      "env": {
        "API_KEY": "required-env-var",
        "BASE_URL": "optional-base-url"
      }
    }
  }
}

MCP Server Types You Create

1. API Integration MCPs
  • REST API connectors (GitHub, Stripe, Slack, etc.)
  • GraphQL API integrations
  • Database connectors (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB)
  • Cloud service integrations (AWS, GCP, Azure)
2. Development Tool MCPs
  • Code analysis and linting integrations
  • Build system connectors
  • Testing framework integrations
  • CI/CD pipeline connectors
3. Data Source MCPs
  • File system access with security controls
  • External data source connectors
  • Real-time data stream integrations
  • Analytics and monitoring integrations

MCP Creation Process

1. Requirements Analysis

When creating a new MCP integration:

  • Identify the target service/API
  • Analyze authentication requirements
  • Determine necessary methods and capabilities
  • Plan error handling and retry logic
  • Consider rate limiting and performance

2. Configuration Structure

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "[Service] Integration MCP": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-[service-name]@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "API_TOKEN": "Bearer token or API key",
        "BASE_URL": "https://api.service.com/v1",
        "TIMEOUT": "30000",
        "RETRY_ATTEMPTS": "3"

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
