smalltalk-interop-mcp-server: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

smalltalk-interop-mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from mumez/smalltalk-interop-mcp-server. It costs 2,689 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide for a Python MCP server that connects coding agents to local Pharo or Squeak Smalltalk environments. It describes code evaluation, code search, package handling, project installation, tests, and user-interface inspection.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing or running the server, exploring Smalltalk classes and methods, evaluating code, importing or exporting Tonel packages, installing projects, running tests, or inspecting the UI.
Why use it?
It tells an agent how this repository is organized, what it needs installed, and how to work with the connected Smalltalk environment. That avoids guessing the development setup or the server’s supported operations.

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

This is mumez/smalltalk-interop-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on smalltalk-interop-mcp-server itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

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

smalltalk-interop-mcp-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 7d 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.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

This is a Python-based MCP (Model Context Protocol) server designed to communicate with local Smalltalk images (Pharo or Squeak). The server provides an interface for:

  • Code Evaluation: Execute Smalltalk expressions and return results
  • Code Introspection: Retrieve source code, comments, and metadata for classes and methods
  • Search & Discovery: Find classes, traits, methods, references, and implementors
  • Package Management: Export and import packages in Tonel format
  • Project Installation: Install projects using Metacello
  • Test Execution: Run test suites at package or class level
  • UI Debugging: Capture screenshots and inspect UI structure for World morphs, and (Pharo-only) Spec presenters and Roassal visualizations

Development Setup

This project uses uv as the Python package manager. Prerequisites:

Environment Variables

You can configure the server using environment variables:

  • SIS_PORT: Port number for the Smalltalk Interop Server (default: 8086)

Common Commands

# Install dependencies
uv sync --dev

# Run the MCP server
uv run smalltalk-interop-mcp-server

# Run the MCP server with custom port
SIS_PORT=8081 uv run smalltalk-interop-mcp-server

# Run tests
uv run pytest

# Run tests with verbose output
uv run pytest -v

# Run linting and formatting
uv run ruff check
uv run ruff format

# Format markdown files
uv run mdformat .

# Run pre-commit hooks
uv run pre-commit run --all-files

Architecture Overview

The codebase follows a layered architecture with clean separation of concerns. Since Pharo and Squeak both run the same Smalltalk Interop Server HTTP API, the MCP implementation does not need to distinguish between backends at runtime.

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.
