mcp-server-bash-sdk CLAUDE.md

mcp-server-bash-sdk CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from muthuishere/mcp-server-bash-sdk. It costs 2,713 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions and a Bash software kit for building Model Context Protocol servers, which let AI tools call defined functions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build or test MCP servers in Bash, support standard input/output and HTTP connections, define callable tools, and run the included tests.
Why use it?
It explains how the protocol, web connection, and server implementations fit together, reducing confusion when maintaining the codebase.

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-server-bash-sdk CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

What this is

A Model Context Protocol server SDK in pure Bash, implementing MCP revision 2026-07-28 over both standard transports. Three layers, split by file:

  • mcpserver_core.sh — the protocol layer. JSON-RPC framing, method dispatch, per-request version negotiation, result envelopes, error codes. It defines functions only; sourcing it starts nothing. run_mcp_server is the stdio entry point.
  • mcpserver_http.sh — the Streamable HTTP binding. Parses HTTP, enforces the header↔body contract, maps errors onto status codes, then calls the same process_request. It contains no protocol logic, which is what keeps the two transports from drifting.
  • moviemcpserver.sh, examples/gitserver.shimplementations. Set the config variables, source the core (and optionally the HTTP layer), define tool_* functions, dispatch on --http.

Users copy an implementation, not the core. examples/README.md is the walkthrough.

Commands

./test_mcpserver_core.sh                        # 31 unit tests, one per spec scenario
./test_mcpserver_core.sh test_discover_shape    # a single test by function name
./test_conformance.sh                           # validate live output against the official schema
./test_http_transport.sh                        # 19 HTTP tests (drives a real server over curl)
./test_http_transport.sh test_bad_origin_is_403 # a single HTTP test
./docs/spikes/spike-01-stdio-viability.sh       # re-measure the stdio numbers
./docs/spikes/spike-02-http-listener.sh         # re-check listener/portability assumptions
./scripts/test-linux.sh all                     # run both suites on Debian, Alpine, Ubuntu (Docker)

# one-shot smoke test (note: every request MUST carry _meta protocolVersion)

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.
