mcp-for-splunk AGENTS.md

mcp-for-splunk AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from deslicer/mcp-for-splunk. It costs 1,256 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A repository guide for AI agents working on an MCP server for Splunk, a platform for searching and monitoring machine-generated data. It covers the server, an optional ITSI extension, setup, checks and project conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing Splunk or ITSI tools, resources and prompts, or when running the project’s checks and local server.
Why use it?
It gives agents the commands and structure needed to change, test and run the server without overlooking its separate packages or documentation rules.

Getting it into your agent

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

mcp-for-splunk 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 126 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md — coding agents in this repo

Instructions for AI coding agents (Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Claude Code, etc.) working in this repository. For agents that only call the running MCP server, prefer llms.txt and mcp_itsi/llms.txt.

Project overview

  • Product: MCP Server for Splunk — FastMCP 4 / MCP SDK v2 tools, resources, and prompts over Splunk Enterprise/Cloud (+ optional ITSI plugin).
  • Runtime pin: fastmcp==4.0.0b4 (see pyproject.toml / uv.lock).
  • Layout:
    • src/ — core server, tools, resources, middleware
    • mcp_itsi/ — ITSI plugin package (also packaged under packaging/mcp-itsi-server)
    • contrib/ — community tools/workflows
    • scripts/ — live probes and operator helpers
    • docs/ — human docs; follow docs/readme-guide.md when editing Markdown
    • tests/ — pytest suite

Setup

cp env.example .env   # fill Splunk host + token or user/password
uv sync --extra dev

Useful entry points:

uv run mcp-server --local          # local HTTP defaults (sessionless)
uv run python src/server.py --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8014

Build / lint / test

uv run ruff check src/ tests/
uv run mypy src/core/client_config_cache.py   # targeted; full mypy via CI lint job
uv run pytest tests/ -q --ignore=tests/integration

Live Splunk (credentials via env, never commit secrets):

uv run python scripts/test_live_splunk_tools.py
uv run python scripts/test_live_mcp_client.py          # in-memory FastMCP Client
uv run python scripts/test_sessionless_http.py         # needs MCP_URL + SPLUNK_TOKEN

Always regenerate the lockfile when changing deps:

uv lock
uv lock --check

Dependabot PRs that only edit pyproject.toml floors without uv.lock are incomplete.

Conventions

  • Python: 3.10+; keep modules focused; prefer composition over large god-files.
  • File size: stay under ~500 lines; split earlier around ~400.
  • Imports: top of module only (no inline imports unless a documented cycle).
  • Markdown: follow .cursorrules / docs/readme-guide.md (one H1, short paragraphs, fenced code with language tags).
  • HTTP client modes: sessionless is the default (MCP_STATELESS_HTTP=true). See docs/guides/configuration/http-client-modes.md.
  • Workflows: OpenAI Agents workflow_runner was removed (Option C). Keep JSON discovery/authoring tools only (list_workflows, workflow_builder, workflow_requirements).
  • Saved-search ACL: read ownership from entity.access via src/tools/search/saved_search_acl.py — not content['eai:acl'].
  • ITSI packaging: mcp_itsi/ and packaging/mcp-itsi-server/mcp_itsi/ may be hardlinked — edit once, verify both paths if unsure.

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.
