AGENTS.md

clerk-mcp-template AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from dyeoman2/clerk-mcp-template. It costs 314 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

Project instructions for building an MCP server with Clerk authentication on Cloudflare Workers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when customising the template’s server name, tools, business logic, environment variables, routes, and API endpoints, then run its validation and formatting commands.
Why use it?
They give coding agents project-specific rules for replacing template placeholders, keeping authentication and security wiring intact, and validating changes.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is dyeoman2/clerk-mcp-template's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on clerk-mcp-template 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 clerk-mcp-template 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 C, and why

clerk-mcp-template AGENTS.md scanned grade C 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 2mo 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

What it actually says

After making the desired changes to the code, run npm run validate to check for errors. Fix the errors and rerun npm run validate until there are no errors. After npm run validate returns no errors, run npm run format to format the code.

Instructions for AI Agents

This is a template for building MCP servers with Clerk authentication on Cloudflare Workers.

Key Points for Code Assistance

  1. This is a template - Users will customize it for their own applications
  2. Replace placeholders - Look for "TODO", "your-app", "ClerkAppMCP", etc.
  3. Clerk integration - Authentication flow is already implemented
  4. Example tools - Replace with user's actual business logic
  5. Environment variables - Users need to add their own app-specific vars
  6. Security - OAuth flow and token management are handled

Common Customizations

  • Rename ClerkAppMCP class to something meaningful
  • Update server name and description
  • Replace example tools with real functionality
  • Add application-specific environment variables
  • Implement the /auth/mcp route in user's application
  • Update API endpoints to point to user's services

Validation

When helping users, ensure:

  • Clerk keys are properly configured
  • KV namespace is created and bound
  • Authentication flow is implemented in their app
  • Tools are properly typed with Zod schemas
  • Error handling is maintained
Changes

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.
