What is idfm-mcp-server CLAUDE.md?

A set of coding instructions for an MCP server that connects Claude Desktop to Paris public transport data. It describes the APIs, authentication, available tools, and data formats.

Use it when implementing or maintaining tools that search Île-de-France stops, show upcoming departures, plan journeys, or report service disruptions.

It gives the coding agent project-specific details needed to work with the transport service correctly, including real-time data and secure API access.

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
Fable 5.1	$0.01348	$0.01348

Security

Grade A, and why

idfm-mcp-server CLAUDE.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.

CLAUDE.md - Île-de-France Mobilités MCP Server Implementation Guide

Overview

This MCP server provides Claude Desktop with access to the Paris public transport network (Île-de-France Mobilités) through the PRIM API.

Implementation Details

API Integration

The server integrates with the PRIM (Platform for Regional Information on Mobility) API which provides:

SIRI Lite API - Real-time departures (/stop-monitoring)
Navitia API - Journey planning and search (/v2/navitia/)
General Messages API - Traffic disruptions (/general-message)

Authentication

Uses API key authentication via HTTP header apiKey
API key stored securely in Docker Desktop secrets as IDFM_API_KEY
Key obtained from: https://prim.iledefrance-mobilites.fr/

Tools Implemented

1. get_next_departures

Purpose: Get real-time departure times for a specific stop
Input: Stop ID (from search_stops), optional max results
Output: List of next departures with line, destination, and time
API: SIRI Lite Stop Monitoring endpoint

2. search_stops

Purpose: Find stop IDs by searching for station names
Input: Search query (station name or location)
Output: List of matching stops with IDs and coordinates
API: Navitia Places endpoint
Note: Essential for finding stop IDs needed by get_next_departures

3. search_routes

Purpose: Calculate journey itineraries between two locations
Input: From location, to location, optional datetime
Output: Multiple journey options with transfers and timings
API: Navitia Journeys endpoint
Formats: Can use coordinates (lat;lon) or place IDs

4. get_traffic_info

Purpose: Get real-time service disruptions and messages
Input: Optional line ID to filter
Output: List of current disruptions and service messages
API: SIRI Lite General Message endpoint

5. get_line_info

Purpose: Get detailed information about a transport line
Input: Line ID
Output: Line details, routes, and directions
API: Navitia Lines endpoint

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.
