che-ical-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

che-ical-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from PsychQuant/che-ical-mcp. It costs 4,130 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for using Spectra, a spec-driven development workflow in the Che Ical MCP project. Spec-driven development means describing expected behaviour before implementing it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discuss unclear requirements, propose changes, apply approved work, continue interrupted changes, answer questions about specifications, and archive finished work.
Why use it?
It gives coding work a consistent path from discussion and planning through implementation, testing, and archiving completed changes.

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

This is PsychQuant/che-ical-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on che-ical-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 che-ical-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

che-ical-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 13d 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.

Spectra Instructions

This project uses Spectra for Spec-Driven Development(SDD). Specs live in openspec/specs/, change proposals in openspec/changes/.

Use /spectra:* skills when:

  • A discussion needs structure before coding → /spectra:discuss
  • User wants to plan, propose, or design a change → /spectra:propose
  • Tasks are ready to implement → /spectra:apply
  • There's an in-progress change to continue → /spectra:ingest
  • User asks about specs or how something works → /spectra:ask
  • Implementation is done → /spectra:archive

Workflow

discuss? → propose → apply ⇄ ingest → archive

  • discuss is optional — skip if requirements are clear
  • Requirements change mid-work? Plan mode → ingest → resume apply

Parked Changes

Changes can be parked(暫存)— temporarily moved out of openspec/changes/. Parked changes won't appear in spectra list but can be found with spectra list --parked. To restore: spectra unpark <name>. The /spectra:apply and /spectra:ingest skills handle parked changes automatically.

MCP 功能驗證的表面選擇(.claude/rules/mcp-binary-version-testing.md)

Binary 更新後 session 內 MCP server 仍是舊版(重啟才換 — 且重啟也不保證換:plugin wrapper 的 auto-download 會被 Claude Code 的 15 分鐘 connection-failure cache 安靜跳過)。 驗證新功能前必做行為探測(呼叫新版才有的欄位看回應)確認測試表面版本,再依功能性質 選路徑:stateless → --cli 指 repo 內剛 build 的 binary;stateful(undo 等)→ 重啟後的 session MCP tools(--cli per-process stack 結構上驗不了;手動 spawn stdio 有 read-after-write confound)。三表面特性表、wrapper failure-cache 坑與 2026-08-31 #186/v1.16.1 事故記錄見 .claude/rules/mcp-binary-version-testing.md。

Test Naming Convention

Tests/CheICalMCPTests/ follows three filename suffixes that signal what each test exercises. The suffix is load-bearing — pick the right one when adding a new file so reviewers (and Claude) can locate the right test layer fast.

Filename pattern Layer What it tests
<Subject>Tests.swift Pure unit Free functions / value types / pure helpers. No FakeEventKitManager and no EventKitManager instances (static-utility access like EventKitManager.setupCommandHint(binaryPath:) / resolvedSetupCommandHint() in SetupCommandTests is fine — it's a type-level probe, not handler integration). Examples: BatchDeleteFilterTests, ReminderCleanupTests, EventKitErrorSanitizerTests, ParticipantFormattingTests, SetupCommandTests.
<Subject>HandlerTests.swift Handler integration handle* methods from CheICalMCPServer driven through FakeEventKitManager-equivalent doubles. Tests the handler's full sanitize → dispatch → response shape, not the EventKit manager itself. Canonical example: CleanupHandlerTests.swift — copy its structure when adding a new handler test.
<Subject>DispatchTests.swift Outer-catch / dispatch handleToolCallForTesting outer-catch and the dispatch JSON envelope. Probes what surfaces when a handler throws an unexpected error type. Examples: OuterCatchDispatchTests, DispatchRoundTripTests.

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.
