Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md.

This is o-sokhan/abm-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on abm-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 abm-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

abm-mcp AGENTS.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 8d 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

Guidance for AI coding agents (and humans) working in this repository.

What this is

A read-only FastMCP server wrapping the Apple School & Business Manager API. abm_client.py handles auth (ES256 client-assertion JWT -> OAuth2 bearer token) and HTTP (get, get_paginated). server.py exposes one @mcp.tool per documented read operation.

Hard rules

  1. Read-only. Do not add write operations or post/patch/delete methods.
  2. Paths come from Apple's docs, never guessed: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/applebusinessapi
  3. Never commit secrets. .env, *.pem, *.p8, token files are gitignored.
  4. Keep the smoke test green. python test_smoke.py must pass in every commit; it fails if any tool name starts with a write verb.

Auth gotchas (already handled — don't regress)

  • JWT aud = https://account.apple.com/auth/oauth2/v2/token (with /v2/), but the token POST goes to the non-v2 URL. Mismatch -> invalid_client.
  • The Apple private key is SEC1 with explicit EC parameters; convert to named-curve PKCS#8 (openssl pkcs8 -topk8) before it will load.

Adding a tool

  1. Confirm method + path in Apple's docs.
  2. Add a thin @mcp.tool calling _get_client().get(...) / get_paginated(...) wrapped in _handle(...).
  3. Add the tool name to READ_TOOLS in test_smoke.py.
  4. Run python test_smoke.py and ruff check ..
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.
