cockroachdb-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

cockroachdb-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from bpamiri/cockroachdb-mcp. It costs 870 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for a Python server that lets AI assistants work with CockroachDB, a distributed SQL database compatible with PostgreSQL. They describe the codebase, development commands, testing, formatting, and type checking.

In plain words
What is it for?
Developing, testing, formatting, and type-checking the cockroachdb-mcp project. The instructions also explain its database connection, MCP server setup, and repository layout.
Why use it?
They give an AI coding assistant the project-specific commands and structure it needs to make and verify changes correctly. This reduces guesswork about how to install, test, lint, and inspect the server.

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

cockroachdb-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 7d 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.

Project Overview

cockroachdb-mcp is a Python MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI assistants to interact with CockroachDB clusters. It uses psycopg (PostgreSQL driver) since CockroachDB is PostgreSQL-compatible, and provides tools for querying, CRUD operations, and cluster management.

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.
