togomcp CLAUDE.md

togomcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from dbcls/togomcp. It costs 3,924 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for TogoMCP, a server that lets AI assistants query biological and medical data services, including an RDF database and APIs such as NCBI, UniProt, PubChem, and ClinVar.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for working with SPARQL, a query language for linked data, and searching databases covering genes, proteins, chemicals, diseases, genome variation, and biological pathways.
Why use it?
It explains how the server is organized and how requests, results, and errors should be handled across its different data sources.

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

togomcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

TogoMCP

FastMCP server exposing the RDF Portal (SPARQL) plus selected REST APIs (NCBI E-utilities, UniProt, ChEMBL, PDB, PubChem, Reactome, Rhea, MeSH, TogoID, TogoVar) to AI assistants.

Architecture

The server is assembled in main.py: a root FastMCP instance (mcp, defined in server.py) mounts three sub-servers as prefixes:

A REST wrapper becomes a mounted sub-server (not a flat api_tools.py search_* tool) when the external API is a cohesive multi-endpoint surface with no SPARQL counterpart in RDF Portal — the flat wrappers are keyword-search front doors to a SPARQL database (their error hint points back to run_sparql), so a DB without a SPARQL endpoint doesn't belong there. TogoVar (human genome variation: gnomAD/ToMMo/JGA/BBJ frequencies, ClinVar+MGeND significance) fits the sub-server shape, like TogoID and NCBI.

Tools registered directly on the root mcp live in rdf_portal.py (SPARQL, MIE files, endpoint resolution) and api_tools.py (REST search wrappers).

Entry points (from pyproject.toml):

  • togo-mcp-server — HTTP transport on 0.0.0.0:8000
  • togo-mcp-local — stdio transport (Claude Desktop)

Data layout

Bundled under togo_mcp/data/ and shipped in the wheel via package-data:

  • mie/*.yaml — one MIE (Metadata-Interoperability-Exchange) file per supported RDF database
  • resources/endpoints.csv — SPARQL endpoint registry consumed by load_sparql_endpoints
  • resources/togomcp_usage_guide*.md — static guidance served as a resource
  • docs/ — developer docs (MIE spec, examples)

Parameter conventions

These conventions were deliberately normalized across tools; preserve them when adding new tools:

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.

togomcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository dbcls/togomcp (13 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 3,924 tokens to every session, about $0.0196 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
