What is searxng-mcp AGENTS.md?

Project-specific instructions for an MCP server: a program that lets an AI agent call external services through defined tools. They describe the Python code structure, architecture, workflow and commands.

Understanding where the server, agent, skills and API client code belong; following the project’s development and run commands; and tracing requests from a user to an external API.

They give coding agents the project’s rules and exact commands, reducing guesswork and preventing changes that conflict with the existing design.

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	$0.03831	$0.03831
Opus 5	$0.01916	$0.01916
Sonnet 5	$0.00766	$0.00766

Security

Grade A, and why

searxng-mcp 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 8d 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

92% identical to servicenow-api AGENTS.md — 30 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 301 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Claude Code loads this file via CLAUDE.md (@AGENTS.md import) — the two stay in sync. Edit this file, not CLAUDE.md.
