This is ramide1/arca-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on arca-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 arca-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

arca-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 2mo 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

arca-mcp Agent Guidelines

Key Commands

  • **Start server: Install: bun install
  • Run: bun src/main.ts
  • Type check: bun tsc (no emission due to noEmit: true in tsconfig)
  • No test or lint scripts configured

Environment Variables

Required for AFIP authentication (WS-AAA):

  • ARCA_WSAA_CERT: Certificate file (default: ghf.crt)
  • ARCA_WSAA_PRIVATE_KEY: Private key file (default: ghf.key)
  • ARCA_WSAA_PASSWORD: Private key password (default: empty)
  • ARCA_TEST_MODE: Set to false for production; any other value (or unset) uses homologation
  • ARCA_FETCH_LIMIT: SOAP retry attempts (default: 3)

Certificate and key files are expected in the current directory (or currentDir tool parameter).

Important Notes

  • CUIT format: All tools require CUIT in XX-XXXXXXXX-X format (validated via Zod)
  • WSDL caching: WSDL files are downloaded to ./{service}_{env}.wsdl (e.g., wsfe_test.wsdl) and reused for 1 year
  • OpenSSL required: The signTra function uses openssl cms for signing; ensure OpenSSL is installed and in PATH
  • SOAP services: Communicates with AFIP's WS-FE (electronic invoicing) and WSAA (authentication) services
  • Temp files: Creates TRA_*.xml and TA_*.xml files in the directory specified by currentDir (default: ./)
  • TypeScript: Strict type checking enabled; moduleResolution: bundler (Bun-specific)
  • Project structure:
    • src/main.ts: MCP server entry point
    • src/tool.ts: MCP tool definitions (AFIP service wrappers)
    • src/arcaService.ts: SOAP client implementation
    • src/interface.ts: Unused (empty)

Development Notes

  • No test framework configured; manual testing via MCP tools recommended
  • No lint/formatter config in repo (though .gitignore references ESLint/Prettier)
  • Uses Bun's built-in test runner? Not configured
  • WSDL downloads occur on first use or when cached file >1 year old
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.
