touchdesigner-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from 8beeeaaat/touchdesigner-mcp. It costs 2,156 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for building and testing a TouchDesigner MCP project. TouchDesigner is software for creating interactive real-time visuals, while MCP is a standard for connecting AI agents to tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing, debugging, generating OpenAPI-based code, building distribution packages, or running unit, integration, and end-to-end tests.
Why use it?
They give an agent the project commands and workflow needed to generate code, build the project, and run tests.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

touchdesigner-mcp CLAUDE.md 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.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Development Commands

Building and Development

  • npm run build - Full build process including code generation and TypeScript compilation (recommended for development)
  • npm run dev - Start MCP inspector for debugging (@modelcontextprotocol/inspector)
  • make build - Docker-based build that copies both dist/ and td/modules/ from container (for CI/CD)
  • npm run build:mcpb - Build MCP Bundle package for distribution
  • make clean - Remove all generated files (dist, td/modules, node_modules)

Code Generation Workflow

The project uses OpenAPI 3.0.0 schema-based code generation with a three-step process:

  • npm run gen:openapi - Bundle OpenAPI schema files into single YAML using @redocly/cli
  • npm run gen:handlers - Generate Python handlers using custom Node.js script with Mustache templates
  • npm run gen:mcp - Generate TypeScript client code and Zod schemas using Orval v8
  • npm run gen - Run all generation steps in sequence

Testing and Quality

  • npm test - Run all tests (e2e, integration and unit)
  • npm run test:e2e - E2E tests: builds dist/ and drives the built dist/cli.js with the real MCP SDK v2 client over stdio and Streamable HTTP (both protocol eras; no TouchDesigner required)
  • npm run test:integration - Integration tests with TouchDesigner WebServer
  • npm run test:unit - Unit tests for MCP server components
  • npm run coverage - Generate test coverage report

HTTP Transport Mode

  • npm run http - Build and start the MCP server in HTTP mode (port 6280, TD on 9981)
  • npm run test:integration - Includes the HTTP transport suite (tests/integration/httpTransport.test.ts)

HTTP Mode Configuration:

  • Default port: 3000
  • Default host: 127.0.0.1
  • Endpoint: /mcp
  • Health check: GET /health

Linting and Formatting

The project uses multiple formatters and linters for different languages:

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.
