proton-mcp AGENTS.md

proton-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from purplehat93/proton-mcp. It costs 469 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for a Proton Mail MCP server, a program that lets AI agents interact with Proton Mail through a standard tool interface. They describe required documents, repository boundaries, validation, security, and approval rules for mailbox changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them before editing the server, its tool contracts, security-sensitive code, or changes that involve related deployment repositories.
Why use it?
They prevent changes from crossing into deployment repositories or bypassing checks for networking, credentials, and mailbox actions.

Getting it into your agent

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

proton-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 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Keep this file short. Read the linked docs before changing architecture or behavior.

Before editing

  1. Read ARCHITECTURE.md.
  2. Read docs/SPEC.md for tool contracts.
  3. Read SECURITY.md before touching networking, credentials, Bridge integration, or write actions.
  4. Read docs/DEVELOPMENT.md for validation commands.
  5. If the deployment repository nmousouros/nas-infrastructure is available in the same workspace, read its STATE.md and stacks/proton-mail/AGENTS.md for the current live deployment state. Do not copy changing runtime facts into this repository.

Repository boundary

This repository owns the MCP server implementation and its contracts. It does not own the live Synology deployment state or Proton Bridge image build.

Related repositories:

  • purplehat93/proton-bridge-docker — headless Proton Mail Bridge image.
  • nmousouros/nas-infrastructure — live Compose deployment and current runtime handoff.

When a task spans repositories, inspect the relevant source rather than inferring behavior from deployment documentation.

Rules

  • Controlled mailbox mutations require explicit user approval, bounded opaque ids, and the review/confirmation workflow. Do not add unattended mutation paths without an explicit safety design.
  • Never expose Proton Mail Bridge IMAP/SMTP ports to the LAN or internet.
  • Never commit Proton credentials, Bridge-generated credentials, tokens, keyrings, vault files, or mailbox data.
  • Never add a generic shell/command-execution MCP tool.
  • Prefer small, explicit MCP tools with bounded outputs.
  • Metadata-first: do not fetch or return full message bodies unless the caller explicitly requests a message.
  • Preserve existing tool schemas unless the task explicitly changes the contract.
  • Do not redesign the two-container architecture without an explicit request.
  • Runtime/deployment changes are not implied by source changes; do not assume permission to restart or modify the live NAS.

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.
