storybook-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

storybook-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from stevebrownlee/storybook-mcp. It costs 2,809 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for AI coding agents working on storybook-mcp, a Python server that connects agents to a running Storybook interface for browsing, inspecting, creating, and combining UI components.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when an agent needs to understand or modify the storybook-mcp codebase and its connection to Storybook.
Why use it?
It gives an agent the project overview, file layout, architecture, and data flow needed to make informed changes in the repository.

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

storybook-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 9d 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.

Project Overview

storybook-mcp is a Python MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects AI coding agents to a running Storybook instance. It exposes four tools over the MCP stdio transport so agents can browse, inspect, create, and compose UI components without leaving their workflow.

  • Language: Python 3.10+
  • MCP framework: FastMCP (mcp[cli])
  • HTTP client: httpx (async)
  • Validation: Pydantic v2
  • Build system: Hatchling
  • Entry point: storybook_mcp.server:main (registered as storybook-mcp console script)
  • Transport: stdio (designed for local agent integration)

        └── server.py                  # All server code: tools, models, helpers

Everything lives in a single server.py file. This is intentional — MCP servers should be easy to audit and deploy. If the file grows beyond ~2000 lines, consider splitting into tools.py, models.py, and codegen.py within the same package.

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.
