mcp-devkit-server CLAUDE.md

A project guide for a Node.js and TypeScript server that lets AI agents use Mapbox services for maps, locations, and geographic data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or changing server tools, prompts, map-related workflows, configuration, tests, or Mapbox authentication.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the project’s structure, design rules, tools, and required setup so they can make informed changes without first piecing everything together.

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-devkit-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.

CLAUDE.md — Mapbox MCP DevKit Server

Overview

This is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server providing "geospatial intelligence capabilities through Mapbox APIs" for AI agents, enabling map styling, GeoJSON visualization, token management, and geocoding.

Tech Stack

  • Runtime: Node.js 22+ LTS
  • Language: TypeScript (strict mode)
  • Testing: Vitest
  • Package Manager: npm

Project Structure

The codebase organizes into:

  • src/index.ts - Main entry point with .env loading and server initialization
  • src/config/toolConfig.ts - Configuration parser for tool filtering and MCP-UI toggles
  • src/tools/ - MCP tool implementations with BaseTool abstract class and registry
  • src/prompts/ - MCP prompt implementations with BasePrompt abstract class and registry
  • src/resources/ - Static reference data (style specs, token scopes, Streets v8 fields)
  • src/utils/ - HTTP pipeline, JWT parsing, tracing, and version utilities
  • skills/ - Agent Skills providing domain expertise (cartography, security, style patterns)

Key Architectural Patterns

Tool Architecture: All tools extend BaseTool<InputSchema, OutputSchema> or MapboxApiBasedTool<InputSchema, OutputSchema>. Tools auto-validate inputs and outputs using Zod schemas. Each tool lives in src/tools/tool-name-tool/ with separate *.input.schema.ts, *.output.schema.ts, and *.ts files.

Prompt Architecture: All prompts extend BasePrompt abstract class. Prompts orchestrate multi-step workflows, guiding AI assistants through complex tasks with best practices built-in. Each prompt lives in src/prompts/ with separate files per prompt (e.g., CreateAndPreviewStylePrompt.ts). Prompts use kebab-case naming (e.g., create-and-preview-style).

HTTP Pipeline System: "Never patch global.fetch—use HttpPipeline with dependency injection instead." The HttpPipeline class applies policies (User-Agent, retry logic) via a chain-of-responsibility pattern. See src/utils/httpPipeline.ts:20.

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.

mcp-devkit-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository mapbox/mcp-devkit-server (60 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,632 tokens to every session, about $0.0082 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
