xcstrings-crud CLAUDE.md

xcstrings-crud CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from Ryu0118/xcstrings-crud. It costs 400 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for xcstrings-crud, a Swift command-line tool and MCP server for editing Apple String Catalog files. String Catalogs are Xcode files that store app translations and their metadata.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when adding or changing translation-file operations, Swift APIs, CLI commands, MCP support, or tests.
Why use it?
They explain how to build and test the project and where reading, writing, parsing, and MCP functionality belong.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

xcstrings-crud 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 4d 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

xcstrings-crud

CLI and MCP server for xcstrings (String Catalog) CRUD operations.

Build & Test

swift build           # Build all targets
swift test            # Run all tests
swift build -c release # Release build

Architecture

  • XCStringsKit/ - Core library (models, parser, reader, writer, stats)
  • XCStringsCLI/ - CLI commands using ArgumentParser (includes MCP subcommand)
  • XCStringsMCP/ - MCP server using swift-sdk
  • xcstrings-crud/ - CLI entry point (xcstrings-crud mcp for MCP server)

Code Style

  • Swift 6.0 with strict concurrency
  • Use async/await for async operations
  • Errors defined in Errors.swift, use XCStringsError enum
  • All public APIs should have clear parameter names

Key Files

  • XCStrings.swift - Data models (StringCatalog, StringUnit, Xcode metadata fields, etc.)
  • XCStringsParser.swift - Facade for file operations, including multi-file untranslated checks
  • XCStringsReader.swift - Read operations (list, get, check), including key metadata, shouldTranslate == false handling, and untranslated issue detection for specific files and languages
  • XCStringsWriter.swift - Write operations (add, update, delete, rename)
  • XCStringsFileEncoder.swift - Deterministic xcstrings JSON encoding with Xcode-like key order
  • XCStringsKeySorter.swift - Xcode-like natural sorting for string catalog keys
  • XCStringsStatsCalculator.swift - Coverage and progress stats; non-translatable keys are excluded from language totals

Testing

swift test --filter XCStringsKitTests  # Run specific test target

Tests use fixture-based approach. See TestFixtures.swift for test data generation.

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.
