gsheets-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

gsheets-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from henrysouchien/gsheets-mcp. It costs 98 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of drive-mcp CLAUDE.md, MIT.

Project instructions for the gsheets-mcp Google Sheets integration. They point to shared Claude Code rules that load automatically and add a small set of project-specific rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on gsheets-mcp to follow the repository’s planning, command-running, verification, and file-editing rules.
Why use it?
They make required working practices visible to the coding agent, including planning before implementation, verification, and restrictions on branches and generated package folders.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Codex.

This is henrysouchien/gsheets-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on gsheets-mcp 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 gsheets-mcp 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

gsheets-mcp 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 6d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

95% identical to drive-mcp CLAUDE.md — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Global working rules live in ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md and load automatically in every session:

  • Mandatory plan-first workflow (plan → Codex review → implement via Codex)
  • Codex exec CLI dispatch conventions
  • Don't defer to dodge friction
  • Finish and Verify
  • NEVER create or switch branches
  • NEVER edit files in any -dist package directory

This file is intentionally minimal — add only gsheets-mcp-specific guidance here.

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.
