trello-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

trello-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from asim-altayb/trello-mcp. It costs 470 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions that tells an AI coding agent how to install and configure a Trello MCP server, which connects the agent to Trello project information. It includes operating-system-specific paths, credential storage, and setup checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set up Trello access in a project, register the server, store credentials, and verify the connection.
Why use it?
It turns a multi-step installation into documented instructions and keeps Trello credentials in an uncommitted environment file.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is asim-altayb/trello-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on trello-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 trello-mcp 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

trello-mcp AGENTS.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.

What it actually says

AI agent instructions

This repository is designed to be installed and configured by AI coding agents on Linux, macOS, and Windows.

One-line setup (paste into any agent)

Fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/asim-altayb/trello-mcp/main/docs/agent-setup/prompt.md and follow every step to install trello-mcp and wire it to the current project.

Shorter variant if your agent already fetched the prompt:

Follow https://raw.githubusercontent.com/asim-altayb/trello-mcp/main/docs/agent-setup/prompt.md

What the agent will do

  1. Detect OS (Linux / macOS / Windows) and pick the correct paths
  2. Clone or update the shared server install (see table below)
  3. Store Trello credentials in SERVER_DIR/.env (never committed)
  4. Write .trello-mcp.json in the project root (safe to commit)
  5. Register the MCP server in .mcp.json (or the client-specific config)
  6. Verify with trello_project_info

Key paths by OS

Linux macOS Windows
Server install ~/.local/share/trello-mcp/ ~/.local/share/trello-mcp/ %LOCALAPPDATA%\trello-mcp\
Credentials ~/.local/share/trello-mcp/.env same %LOCALAPPDATA%\trello-mcp\.env
Project boards PROJECT_ROOT/.trello-mcp.json same same
MCP config PROJECT_ROOT/.mcp.json same same

In JSON MCP configs on Windows, use forward slashes in paths (e.g. C:/Users/you/AppData/Local/trello-mcp/dist/index.js).

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.
