unifi-siem-sink: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

unifi-siem-sink CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from ianchesal/unifi-siem-sink. It costs 1,260 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository-specific instructions for an MCP server that receives UniFi security events over syslog, stores them in SQLite, and makes them available to a language model over HTTP. UniFi is a network-management system; MCP is a way for an AI tool to access external data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on this repository's TypeScript build, tests, linting, configuration, architecture, or event parser.
Why use it?
UniFi's local API no longer exposes certain intrusion-detection and intrusion-prevention events. The server keeps those events available through the remaining syslog export path.

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

unifi-siem-sink 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 7d 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.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

What this is

An MCP server that receives UniFi's CEF-over-syslog SIEM export (UDP), stores it in SQLite with a retention window, and exposes it to an LLM over Streamable HTTP. It exists because the UniFi Network Local API does not expose IPS/IDS threat events (the stat/ips/event endpoint was removed in firmware 10.x) — the SIEM/syslog export is the only remaining path to that data. It pairs with the sibling project unifi-mcp-server, which covers everything else in the UniFi Network API; this project fills only the Security-category gap. A third sibling, unifi-siem-lens, sits on top of this project's event store and runs scheduled, code-driven analysis heuristics against it — it's a consumer of this project's MCP tools, not a dependency of this codebase.

Commands

npm run build        # tsc -> dist/
npm start             # node --env-file=.env dist/index.js (run after build)
npm test              # vitest run — full suite
npm run test:watch    # vitest watch mode
npm run lint           # biome check src

Run a single test file: npx vitest run tests/parser/cef.test.ts Run tests matching a name: npx vitest run -t "some test name"

npm run dev (node --experimental-strip-types src/index.ts) is currently broken on Node 24.x/25.x — --experimental-strip-types doesn't resolve .js-suffixed relative imports against sibling .ts files the way tsc does. Use npm run build && npm start for local runs instead, rebuilding after each change.

Node >= 22.5.0 is required (uses node:sqlite, which is built in — no better-sqlite3 or other native SQLite dependency).

Integration tests against a real UDM Pro don't exist yet; the suite runs entirely against synthetic and recorded CEF fixtures in tests/fixtures/real-cef-samples.md.

Architecture

Startup wiring lives in src/index.ts: load config → open DB → start the UDP syslog listener → start the Express/MCP HTTP server → register a SIGTERM/SIGINT shutdown that drains all three in order. There's also a setInterval-driven hourly purge of events older than RETENTION_DAYS.

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.
