mockd: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

mockd CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from getmockd/mockd. It costs 2,689 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for mockd, a single program that creates test versions of APIs such as HTTP, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, MQTT, SSE, and SOAP. They also describe its MCP server, which lets AI assistants manage those test APIs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Using mockd through its command-line interface or MCP tools; creating, changing, debugging, importing, exporting, and checking API mocks and captured traffic.
Why use it?
They give an AI coding assistant the project-specific facts and commands needed to work with mockd correctly. This avoids guessing how to configure ports, workspaces, mocks, imports, exports, and request logs.

This is getmockd/mockd's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mockd 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 mockd 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

mockd 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 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.

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.

What is mockd?

mockd is a multi-protocol API mock server. It mocks HTTP, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, MQTT, SSE, and SOAP from a single binary. It has a built-in MCP server with 18 tools — you can create, manage, and debug mocks directly via MCP without CLI commands.

MCP Server

mockd has an MCP server. If it's configured in your MCP settings, use the MCP tools directly:

  • manage_mock — Create, list, get, update, delete, or toggle mocks (action parameter)
  • manage_context — View or switch admin server context (action: get/switch; name for switch)
  • manage_workspace — List, switch, or create workspaces (action: list/switch/create; id, name)
  • import_mocks — Import from OpenAPI, Postman, HAR, WireMock, cURL, WSDL, Mockoon, or YAML
  • export_mocks — Export all mocks as YAML/JSON
  • get_server_status — Health check, ports, and statistics (no params)
  • get_request_logs — See all captured traffic (limit, offset, method, pathPrefix, mockId, protocol, unmatchedOnly)
  • clear_request_logs — Remove all captured request/response logs (no params)
  • get_chaos_config — Current chaos fault injection config and statistics (no params)
  • set_chaos_config — Inject latency, errors, apply chaos profiles, or configure advanced rules (circuit breaker, retry-after, progressive degradation)
  • reset_chaos_stats — Reset chaos counters to zero without changing config (no params)
  • get_stateful_faults — View circuit breaker, retry-after, and progressive degradation state
  • manage_circuit_breaker — Trip or reset circuit breakers manually (action: trip/reset; key)
  • verify_mock — Assert a mock was called N times (id, expected_count, at_least, at_most)
  • get_mock_invocations — See what requests hit a mock (id, limit)
  • reset_verification — Clear invocation records and counters for one mock or all (id optional, omit for all)
  • manage_state — CRUD stateful resources (action: overview/add_resource/list_items/get_item/create_item/reset/delete_resource; resource, item_id, data, seed_data, etc.)
  • manage_custom_operation — Manage custom operations on stateful resources (action: list/get/register/delete/execute; name, definition, input)

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.
