mcp-perforce-server AGENTS.md

Project instructions for an MCP server that exposes Perforce version-control operations as tools. Perforce is a system for managing source files and other versions of a codebase.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when checking Perforce status, syncing files, inspecting changes, managing files, or resolving merges and conflicts.
Why use it?
They explain the available operations and expected repository workflows, reducing mistakes when an agent works with Perforce files, workspaces, or conflicts.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

mcp-perforce-server AGENTS.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 yesterday.

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.

MCP Perforce Server Agents

This document describes all available agents (tools) provided by the MCP Perforce Server. Each agent corresponds to a specific Perforce operation that can be invoked through the Model Context Protocol.

MCP clients are advertised underscore-safe tool names such as p4_changes; the dotted names below remain accepted as backward-compatible aliases.

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.
