What is mural-mcp CLAUDE.md?

A repository guide for Claude Code, an AI coding assistant, when working on a specific Mural integration project. It explains the package manager, development commands, server design, authentication setup, and testing tools.

Use it to compile and run the project, test its Mural connection and OAuth login, inspect the MCP server, and understand its available tools.

It gives the assistant project-specific rules and commands, reducing guesswork when building, testing, or debugging the code.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00694	$0.00694
Opus 5	$0.00347	$0.00347
Sonnet 5	$0.00139	$0.00139
Haiku 4.5	$0.00069	$0.00069

Security

Grade A, and why

mural-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.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Package Manager

Use pnpm for all package management operations.

Common Development Commands

Building and Development

pnpm run build - Compile TypeScript to JavaScript in build/ directory
pnpm run dev - Watch mode compilation with TypeScript
pnpm start - Run the compiled MCP server
pnpm run prepublishOnly - Pre-publish build step

Testing and Debugging

Test the MCP server manually: node build/index.js
Use MCP inspector: npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node build/index.js
Test OAuth flow: Set environment variables and run pnpm start

Architecture Overview

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides integration with the Mural visual collaboration platform through OAuth 2.0 authentication.

Core Components

MCP Server (src/index.ts) - Main entry point that:
- Uses stdio transport for MCP communication
- Implements 4 tools: list-workspaces, get-workspace, test-connection, clear-auth
- Handles environment variable validation for MURAL_CLIENT_ID
- Uses Zod for input validation
OAuth Handler (src/oauth.ts) - Manages authentication:
- Implements OAuth 2.0 with PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange)
- Stores tokens in ~/.mural-mcp-tokens.json
- Automatically refreshes expired tokens
- Runs temporary HTTP server on port 3000 for OAuth callback
Mural API Client (src/mural-client.ts) - API interaction:
- Makes authenticated requests to https://app.mural.co/api/public/v1
- Handles token refresh automatically
- Provides workspace listing and retrieval methods
TypeScript Types (src/types.ts) - Type definitions for:
- Mural API responses (MuralWorkspace, MuralWorkspacesResponse)
- OAuth flow data (OAuthTokens, PKCEChallenge, etc.)

Environment Variables

Required:

MURAL_CLIENT_ID - OAuth client ID from Mural Developer Portal

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.
