qgis-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

qgis-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from nkarasiak/qgis-mcp. It costs 3,710 tokens per session, scanned A, original, GPL-2.0.

Project instructions for working on qgis-mcp, a local server that lets Claude interact with QGIS, a desktop mapping and geographic-data application. They cover the project structure, commands, and server startup.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to understand the codebase, run its commands, and launch the MCP server that connects Claude Desktop to QGIS.
Why use it?
They give the coding agent the project context and expected commands in one place, reducing guesswork when changing or running qgis-mcp.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is nkarasiak/qgis-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on qgis-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 qgis-mcp configures →

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

qgis-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 yesterday.

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 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.
