mitre-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

mitre-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from Montimage/mitre-mcp. It costs 476 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository-specific instruction document for the Montimage MITRE MCP project. It records setup commands, test and build checks, environment guidance, and rules such as not committing without permission.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on this Python server and its frontend to install dependencies, run checks, handle configuration, and follow the project's security and version-control rules.
Why use it?
It gives a coding agent the project's known procedures and constraints instead of making assumptions about how to run or change the repository.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md.

This is Montimage/mitre-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mitre-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mitre-mcp configures →

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

mitre-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 19d 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 it actually says

@AGENTS.md

Claude-specific pins for this repository. Shared rules (layout, conventions, constraints, token efficiency) live in AGENTS.md, which is imported above; the full environment inventory lives in CONTRIBUTING.md under ## Agent-runnable environment — read it instead of guessing.

Commands

  • Python >= 3.11 virtual environment at .venv — activate before every Python command: source .venv/bin/activate
  • Install (locked, from uv.lock): uv sync --locked --extra dev
  • Build check: python -c "import mitre_mcp.mitre_mcp_server"
  • Test suite of record: pytest -q -p no:cacheprovider -o addopts=""
  • Frontend (frontend/, Node 24): npm ci, npm run build, npm run lint
  • Environment variables: see CONTRIBUTING.md ## Agent-runnable environment — twelve MITRE_* names, FASTMCP_SERVER_HOST/FASTMCP_SERVER_PORT, five VITE_* names

Constraints

  • You must never commit or push without being asked.
  • Never add a Co-Authored-By: Claude line to a commit.

Baseline

  • Recorded pass rate: 249 passed / 249 total
  • Failing tests: none
  • Recorded coverage: 100.0 % (committed STIX fixture + protocol smoke test; gate --cov-fail-under=90.7 — measured 100.00% on Python 3.11.15 with pytest-cov 7.1.0)

Security hygiene

  • 2026-09-19 — .mcpregistry_github_token and .mcpregistry_registry_token moved out of the working tree to ~/.config/mitre-mcp/ (directory mode 700, files mode 600); .env tightened to mode 600. All three remain git-ignored.
  • Token rotation: pending owner action — the GitHub personal access token and the MCP-registry token still require rotation in their respective web consoles (not automatable). Record the rotation date of each token here once done — dates only, never values.
Changes

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.
