openapi-mcp-server CLAUDE.md

openapi-mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from kaizen-org/openapi-mcp-server. It costs 1,931 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of mcp-openapi-server CLAUDE.md, MIT.

Repository instructions for an OpenAPI MCP server. OpenAPI is a format that describes web APIs, and MCP lets an AI agent discover and use those API operations as tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Planning changes with OpenSpec, building the TypeScript project, running its tests, and exposing OpenAPI-described REST APIs through MCP.
Why use it?
They tell the agent when to read project specifications and how to build and test the server correctly.

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

openapi-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 2d 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

100% identical to mcp-openapi-server CLAUDE.md — 0 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 216 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

OpenSpec Instructions

These instructions are for AI assistants working in this project.

Always open @/openspec/AGENTS.md when the request:

  • Mentions planning or proposals (words like proposal, spec, change, plan)
  • Introduces new capabilities, breaking changes, architecture shifts, or big performance/security work
  • Sounds ambiguous and you need the authoritative spec before coding

Use @/openspec/AGENTS.md to learn:

  • How to create and apply change proposals
  • Spec format and conventions
  • Project structure and guidelines

Keep this managed block so 'openspec update' can refresh the instructions.

Project Overview

This is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes OpenAPI endpoints as MCP tools. It allows LLMs to discover and interact with REST APIs defined by OpenAPI specifications through the MCP protocol.

Essential Development Commands

Building and Testing

npm run build           # Build TypeScript using esbuild
npm test                # Run all tests with Vitest
npm test -- api-client.test.ts   # Run specific test file
npm run test:watch      # Run tests in watch mode
npm run test:coverage   # Generate coverage report

Development Workflow

npm run dev             # Watch mode with auto-rebuild
npm run inspect-watch   # Debug mode with auto-reload (starts MCP inspector)
npm run typecheck       # TypeScript type checking only (no build)
npm run lint            # Run ESLint
npm run lint:fix        # Auto-fix linting issues

Common Pitfall

Never try to run test scripts from command line using node -e - this will always fail. Write a TypeScript test file, build it, and execute it, or use the test runner with npm test.

Architecture & Key Concepts

Core Components

The codebase has a layered architecture:

OpenAPIServer (server.ts)
    ↓ uses
ToolsManager (tools-manager.ts) → manages tool filtering & lookup
    ↓ uses
OpenAPISpecLoader (openapi-loader.ts) → parses specs & creates tools
    ↓ uses
ApiClient (api-client.ts) → executes HTTP requests
    ↓ uses
AuthProvider (auth-provider.ts) → handles authentication

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.
