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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01044	$0.01044
Opus 5	$0.00522	$0.00522
Sonnet 5	$0.00209	$0.00209
Haiku 4.5	$0.00104	$0.00104

Security

Grade A, and why

sharepoint-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 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.

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

Development Commands

npm install - ALWAYS run first to install dependencies
npm start - Start the MCP server
npm run auth-server - Start the OAuth authentication server on port 3334 (required for authentication)
npm run test-mode - Start the server in test mode with mock data
npm run inspect - Use MCP Inspector to test the server interactively
npm test - Run Jest tests
npx kill-port 3334 - Kill process using port 3334 if auth server won't start

Architecture Overview

This is a modular MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides Claude with access to Microsoft SharePoint via the Microsoft Graph API. The architecture mirrors the Outlook MCP for consistency.

Core Structure

index.js - Main entry point that combines all module tools and handles MCP protocol
config.js - Centralized configuration including API endpoints, field selections, and authentication settings
sharepoint-auth-server.js - Standalone OAuth server for authentication flow

Modules

Each module exports tools and handlers:

auth/ - OAuth 2.0 authentication with token management
folder/ - Folder operations (list, create, delete, tree view)
document/ - Document operations (list, read, upload, download, delete, metadata)
utils/ - Shared utilities including Graph API client

Key Components

Token Management: Tokens stored in ~/.sharepoint-mcp-tokens.json
Graph API Client: utils/graph-api.js handles all Microsoft Graph API calls
Test Mode: Mock data responses when USE_TEST_MODE=true
Modular Tools: Each module exports tools array that gets combined in main server

Authentication Flow

Azure app registration required with specific permissions (Sites.ReadWrite.All, Files.ReadWrite.All)
Start auth server: npm run auth-server
Use authenticate tool to get OAuth URL
Complete browser authentication
Tokens automatically stored and refreshed

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.
