ab-ibge-mcp-server: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

ab-ibge-mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from ab-orbit/ab-ibge-mcp-server. It costs 1,816 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for developing and publishing an MCP server that gives AI agents access to Brazil's IBGE public data APIs. IBGE is Brazil's government institute for statistics and geography, and MCP is a standard way for AI tools to call external services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing the server, building its TypeScript code, running it locally, checking its available data tools, and publishing versioned updates to the npm package registry.
Why use it?
It puts the project's development, build, local testing, and release commands in one place so contributors can work consistently.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is ab-orbit/ab-ibge-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on ab-ibge-mcp-server 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 ab-ibge-mcp-server configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is import { IBGE_API, ibgeFetch, formatToolError } from "../services/ibge-client.js";.

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

ab-ibge-mcp-server 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 8d 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.

Project Overview

This is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides AI agents access to Brazil's IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística) public APIs. The server exposes 22+ tools covering demographic, economic, and geographic data through a standardized MCP interface.

Published as: ab-ibge-mcp-server on npm registry.

Essential Commands

# Development
npm run dev          # Run server with ts-node (for testing)
npm run build        # Compile TypeScript to dist/
npm start            # Run compiled server from dist/

# Testing the server locally
node dist/index.js   # Should output: "✅ IBGE MCP Server iniciado — 22+ ferramentas disponíveis"

# Publishing updates
npm run build && npm version patch && npm publish  # Bug fixes (1.0.0 → 1.0.1)
npm run build && npm version minor && npm publish  # New features (1.0.0 → 1.1.0)
npm run build && npm version major && npm publish  # Breaking changes (1.0.0 → 2.0.0)

Key Design Patterns

1. Tool Registration Pattern

  • Each tool file exports a register*Tools(server: McpServer) function
  • All tools are registered in src/index.ts during server initialization
  • Tools use Zod schemas for input validation
  • All tools return ToolResponse with consistent error handling

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.
