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

eurlex-mcp-server 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 292 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

MCP server for EU law via the EUR-Lex Cellar API (SPARQL + REST). Exposes 11 read-only tools and one guide prompt over two transports: stdio and Streamable HTTP. No API key — Cellar is a public endpoint.

Quick Start

pnpm install
pnpm run build

Development Commands

pnpm run dev             # Start with tsx (hot reload, stdio)
pnpm run dev:http        # Start HTTP server with tsx (hot reload)
pnpm run build           # Compile TypeScript (prebuild runs typecheck)
pnpm start               # Run compiled version (stdio)
pnpm run start:http      # Run HTTP server (Streamable HTTP transport)
pnpm run check           # typecheck + typecheck:tests + lint + format:check + test
pnpm run inspect         # Manual testing via MCP Inspector

check is the gate CI runs — it must be green before a PR merges or a release tags. It bundles five steps: typecheck (src), typecheck:tests (tests, via tsconfig.test.json), lint, format:check, and the unit test run.

Testing

pnpm test                # Unit tests (vitest run) — fetch is mocked, no network
pnpm run test:watch      # Unit tests in watch mode
pnpm run test:coverage   # Unit tests with V8 coverage report
pnpm run test:integration # Live Cellar tests (network-dependent, separate config)
pnpm run test:integration tests/integration/<file>  # one live file — never insert "--": vitest then runs the whole suite
  • Unit tests (tests/*.test.ts) mock fetch — they never touch the network and run in pnpm run check. vitest.config.ts excludes tests/integration/** and tests/eval/**.
  • Integration + eval tests (tests/integration/, tests/eval/) hit the live Cellar endpoint and are network-dependent. They run only via test:integration (vitest.integration.config.ts), never in CI's check.
  • Coverage floor (vitest.config.ts): 94% statements/lines, 95% functions, 88% branches — set ~5 points below the actual run so a PR can't silently erode it. src/index.ts, src/http.ts, and src/types.ts are excluded.

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.
