earthquake-mcp-server: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

earthquake-mcp-server AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from cyanheads/earthquake-mcp-server. It costs 6,325 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A project-specific instruction file for an AI coding agent working on an earthquake data server. It describes the server's rules, setup, development checks, testing, field testing, security review, and maintenance steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guide changes to the server, run checks, add tests, test its tools and prompts, review security, and keep dependencies and agent skills up to date.
Why use it?
It gives the agent project context and approved next steps instead of making it guess how the repository works.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions .claude-plugin; mentions CLAUDE.md.

This is cyanheads/earthquake-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on earthquake-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 earthquake-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

earthquake-mcp-server 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 today.

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 — 329 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent Protocol

Server: earthquake-mcp-server Package: @cyanheads/earthquake-mcp-server Version: 0.4.1 Framework: @cyanheads/mcp-ts-core ^0.13.15 Engines: Bun ≥1.4.0, Node ≥24.0.0 MCP SDK: @modelcontextprotocol/server ^2.3.1 Zod: ^4.6.7

Read the framework docs first: node_modules/@cyanheads/mcp-ts-core/CLAUDE.md contains the full API reference — builders, Context, error codes, exports, patterns. This file covers server-specific conventions only.


What's Next?

When the user asks what's next or needs direction, suggest options based on the current project state. Common next steps:

  1. Run devcheck — lint, format, typecheck, and security audit
  2. Add tests — scaffold tests for existing definitions using the add-test skill
  3. Field-test definitions — exercise tools/resources/prompts with real inputs using the field-test skill, get a report of issues and pain points
  4. Run the security-pass skill — audit handlers for MCP-specific security gaps: output injection, scope blast radius, input sinks, tenant isolation
  5. Run the maintenance skill — investigate changelogs, adopt upstream changes, and sync skills after bun update --latest
  6. Add tools/resources/prompts — scaffold new definitions using the add-tool, add-resource, add-prompt skills
  7. Run the polish-docs-meta skill — reconcile README, metadata, and the agent protocol with the implemented surface
  8. Re-run the setup skill — reconcile project orientation, skills, structure, and metadata
  9. Run the design-mcp-server skill — map a new domain surface before implementing it
  10. Add services or app tools — use add-service for integrations and add-app-tool for a tool with a paired UI resource

Tailor suggestions to what's actually missing or stale — don't recite the full list every time.


Core Rules

  • Logic throws, framework catches. Tool/resource handlers are pure — throw on failure, no try/catch. Plain Error is fine; the framework catches, classifies, and formats. Use error factories (notFound(), validationError(), etc.) when the error code matters.
  • Use ctx.log for request-scoped logging. No console calls.
  • Use ctx.state for tenant-scoped storage. Never access persistence directly.
  • Need input the caller didn't supply? return ctx.requestInput(...) and read ctx.inputs when the handler is re-entered. Never await for user input mid-handler.
  • Secrets in env vars only — never hardcoded.
  • Cut noise. Add only what earns its place: no speculative generality, no guards for states the framework already prevents (Zod-validated params, classified errors), no abstraction until a third caller proves it, no option nothing sets.
  • Close the loop on issues. When implementing work tracked by a GitHub issue, comment on the issue with what landed and close it. Do both — a comment without a close leaves stale issues open; a close without a comment leaves no record of what shipped. The comment is for future readers — state the concrete changes, not the conversation that produced them.

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.
