What is topdesk-mcp-server copilot-instructions.md?

Project-specific coding instructions for a TypeScript server that connects GitHub Copilot to TOPdesk, an IT service-management system, through the Model Context Protocol.

Use it when working on the MCP server, TOPdesk API client, TypeScript types, tool definitions, or request handlers.

It explains the project structure and expected implementation standards, reducing guesswork when changing the server.

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

Security

Grade A, and why

topdesk-mcp-server copilot-instructions.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 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.

What this file has done since we first saw it
