web-researcher-mcp: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/rebuild-local.md

rebuild-local is a command for Claude Code from zoharbabin/web-researcher-mcp. It costs 20 tokens per session (315 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that clears the response cache, rebuilds the local program, and reinstalls its binary. A binary is the executable file that runs the program.

In plain words
What is it for?
Rebuilding and reinstalling the local web-researcher program, building without installing, keeping the build cache, or choosing a specific installation path.
Why use it?
It provides one repeatable way to refresh a local installation while preserving personal session and persistent data.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths.

This is zoharbabin/web-researcher-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on web-researcher-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything web-researcher-mcp configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is Bash(bash scripts/rebuild-local.sh*), Bash(make rebuild-local*).

Part of the web-researcher-mcp plugin — 1 command, 2 MCP servers shipped together

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

rebuild-local 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 12d 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.

What it actually says

Run the deterministic local rebuild script and report its output verbatim. This does the whole clear-cache → rebuild → reinstall flow in one shell call with no further analysis or tool roundtrips.

Default (clear + build + install to every location the binary might be invoked from — the ~/.claude.json-configured path plus every distinct web-researcher-mcp found on $PATH):

!bash scripts/rebuild-local.sh $ARGUMENTS

After it finishes, state the installed version and every install path from the script output, and remind the user to restart their MCP client(s) to load the new binary. Do not run any additional commands unless the script reports an error.

Useful $ARGUMENTS to pass after /rebuild-local:

  • --no-install — build only, skip the install step
  • --keep-build-cache — skip go clean -cache (faster incremental build)
  • --help — print the script's full usage/env-override reference
  • INSTALL_PATH=/some/path (env var, not an argument) — install to exactly that one path only, skipping auto-discovery of every other location

The script preserves personal data (sessions/, persist/) and only clears the response cache (*.cache + .version).

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
