automox-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

automox-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from AutomoxCommunity/automox-mcp. It costs 2,772 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for automox-mcp, a server that lets an AI assistant use Automox-related tools and resources. They describe how to keep tool registrations, documentation, and generated catalog files consistent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Adding, removing, or renaming tools; managing MCP resources and apps; updating output schemas; and running the required local checks before each push.
Why use it?
Changing a tool in one place can leave names, counts, or discovery information out of sync elsewhere. These instructions provide the checks and update locations needed before pushing changes.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is AutomoxCommunity/automox-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on automox-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 automox-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

automox-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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

automox-mcp — project instructions

Repo-specific invariants for this MCP server. These are self-enforcing reminders: follow them without waiting to be asked. (General working preferences live in the user-global ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md.)

Adding / removing / renaming a tool

A tool's name and count appear in several hand-maintained places. When you change the tool set, update all of these in the same change — CI guards some, but not all:

Location What to update CI-guarded?
src/automox_mcp/tools/<domain>_tools.py the @server.tool registration
src/automox_mcp/tools/meta_tools.py _DOMAIN_CATALOG the (name, description) entry (the model-facing discovery directory) test_doc_tool_counts.py
docs/tool-reference.md the bullet and its ## Domain (N tools) section count and the top "all N tools" header test_doc_tool_counts.py
README.md + mcpb/manifest.json total / read / write counts test_doc_tool_counts.py
mcpb/manifest.json tools[] (+ prompts[] on prompt changes) regenerate, don't hand-edit: uv run python scripts/generate_mcpb_catalog.py (feeds Claude Desktop's "Tools"/"Prompts" details sections) test_doc_tool_counts.py
docs/api-coverage.md coverage map / omission rationale / build-backlog rows manual — easy to forget
tests/smoke_production.py live read-side coverage for new read tools (not destructive writes) manual, not in CI
CHANGELOG.md the entry under the active version ❌ manual

The current split is 133 tools / 85 read / 48 write. discover_capabilities is intentionally excluded from _DOMAIN_CATALOG.

Adding / removing an MCP resource or MCP App

Resources (incl. ui:// MCP App UIs) and the Apps extension have their own hand-maintained surfaces — and unlike tools, none of them are CI-guarded:

Location What to update CI-guarded?
src/automox_mcp/resources/<name>_resources.py + resources/__init__.py the @server.resource registration + its register_* call
docs/tool-reference.md + mcpb/manifest.json the "N MCP resources" count test_doc_tool_counts.py
docs/tool-reference.md ## MCP Resources the resource-table row and (for Apps) the ### MCP Apps note manual — easy to forget
CHANGELOG.md the entry under the active version ❌ manual

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.
