bandcamp-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

bandcamp-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from leosakharoff/bandcamp-mcp. It costs 558 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for an MCP server that researches music on Bandcamp, a website where artists and labels publish and sell music. It can search releases and retrieve details about albums, artists, tracks, and genre tags.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find albums, artists, tracks, or labels; inspect album and artist pages; retrieve track details; and browse music by tags such as ambient, techno, or indie rock.
Why use it?
It avoids manually searching Bandcamp pages and copying music details into your work. The instructions define the available searches and the information returned for each kind of page.

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

bandcamp-mcp 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 11d 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.

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.
