mcp-server: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from agent-blueprint/mcp-server. It costs 572 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for developing and publishing Agent Blueprint, an MCP server and command-line tool that downloads agent-ready project blueprints. MCP is a standard way for an agent to call external tools, while the project includes shared fetching, rendering, configuration, and token-storage code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building, testing, extending, or publishing the Agent Blueprint server, including its CLI, download flow, MCP tools, configuration, and agent-skill renderers.
Why use it?
It gives contributors clear commands, architecture guidance, and rules for keeping the command-line and MCP interfaces consistent and vendor-neutral.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

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

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-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 2mo 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.

CLAUDE.md — Agent Blueprint MCP Server

This is the MCP server and CLI for Agent Blueprint. npm package: agentblueprint.

Commands

npm run build    # TypeScript compile (tsc)
npm test         # Vitest
npm run dev      # Watch mode

Architecture

Two entry points, one shared core:

src/cli.ts              CLI entry (TTY → help, piped → MCP server)
src/download.ts         CLI download handler (writes files to disk)
src/mcp-setup.ts        ServiceNow MCP server setup (credentials, install, config)
src/tools/*.ts          MCP tool handlers (return JSON manifests)
src/fetch-blueprint.ts  SHARED: data fetching + rendering (used by both CLI and MCP)
src/directives.ts       SHARED: post-download agent directives (used by both CLI and MCP)
src/renderers.ts        Agent Skills renderer (GETTING-STARTED, SKILL.md, all references/)
src/server.ts           MCP server setup + tool registration
src/client.ts           HTTP client for Agent Blueprint v1 API
src/config.ts           Config resolution (flag > env > token store)
src/token-store.ts      Persistent token storage

Critical Rules

  1. Vendor-agnostic output. All rendered content (renderers.ts) ships to every customer on every platform. No platform-specific language. No ServiceNow (GlideRecord, sys_app, Agent Studio). No Salesforce. Vendor-specific guidance belongs in expert skills (docs/kb/vendor-skills/ in the main app repo), delivered via --platform flag.

  2. Single source of truth. CLI and MCP tool paths must share logic, not duplicate it. fetch-blueprint.ts handles data fetching + rendering. directives.ts handles post-download text. If you need to change behavior that affects both paths, change the shared module. Never put the same string or logic in both download.ts and tools/download-blueprint.ts.

  3. Test before shipping. Run npm test. All tests must pass. If you add new behavior, add tests.

Publishing

Cannot publish from Claude Code (WebAuthn 2FA). The user runs npm version patch && npm publish manually. Always bump the version before asking the user to publish.

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.
