What is mcp-webdav-server CLAUDE.md?

A project guide for Claude Code, an AI coding assistant, working on a WebDAV server. WebDAV is a way to manage files stored on a remote server, while MCP lets AI clients call that server through defined tools.

Installing dependencies, building, running, linting, and testing the TypeScript server, including starting it over standard input/output or HTTP.

It gives the coding assistant the project context, commands, architecture notes, and setup details needed to work consistently in the repository.

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	$0.02035	$0.02035
Opus 5.5	$0.00814	$0.00814
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00407	$0.00407
Haiku 4.5	$0.00203	$0.00203

Security

Grade A, and why

mcp-webdav-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 2mo 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.

Project Overview

This is a WebDAV MCP Server - a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables Claude Desktop and other MCP clients to interact with WebDAV file systems through natural language commands. The server exposes CRUD operations on WebDAV endpoints as MCP resources, tools, and prompts.

Development Commands

Core Development

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the TypeScript project
npm run build

# Run development mode with auto-rebuild
npm run dev

# Run in watch mode for continuous compilation
npm run watch

# Start the server (stdio transport)
npm start

# Start server with HTTP transport
node dist/index.js --http

Code Quality

# Lint the codebase
npm run lint

# Run tests (when available)
npm test

Password Utilities

# Generate bcrypt hash for secure password storage
npm run generate-hash -- yourpassword [rounds]
# or
npx webdav-mcp-generate-hash yourpassword [rounds]

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.
