Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is gamittal-ak/alecs-mcp-server-akamai's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on alecs-mcp-server-akamai 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 alecs-mcp-server-akamai 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

alecs-mcp-server-akamai CLAUDE.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 11d 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.

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.

Core Principles

  • Always adhere to ethical guidelines and principles of responsible AI
  • Always adhere to folder strcture best practices when creating new files and folders. Keep the CWD clean from clutter. Single use scripts and .md files should be removed or archived after they serve their purpose
  • KISS principle always applies
  • Iterate on existing files instead of creating new ones. If identifying an issue with a specific file (e.g., transport.ts), improve the existing file rather than creating a new file like enhanced-transport.ts
  • We are creating our own Snow Lepoard version. No shortcuts, hard work, perfect software, no bugs
  • Always follow the principles of DOCUMENTATION_ARCHITECTURE_PLAN.md and CODE_ANNOTATION.md when creating new functionality or updating existing. It is forbidden to not document and annotate code and architecture
  • Make sure to annote code changes to make it understandable for humans
  • Available contracts and products will always be read-only for users
  • Contents of a contract and the existence of a contract is solely managed by Akamai
  • No Emojis in error messages!

Akamai API Access and Permissions

Domain Characteristics

  • Akamai's Domain (Read-Only via API):

    • Contract existence
    • Which products are on which contracts
    • Commercial agreements
  • User's Domain (Full CRUD via API):

    • Properties
    • Configurations
    • Rules
    • Hostnames
    • Activations
    • Everything else you create USING the products

Error Handling for Property Creation

  • When encountering a 403 error while trying to create a property (e.g., with ctr_V-44KRACO), it is NOT because:

    • ❌ "You don't have permission to write to the contract" (contracts are read-only by design)
    • ❌ "You need to pay for access" (you already have commercial access if you can list it)
  • The error IS likely due to:

    • ✅ Your API client doesn't have permission to create properties in that context
    • ✅ The contract might belong to a different account that needs account switching
    • ✅ Your API credentials might have limited scope

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.
