xiyan_mcp_server: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

xiyan_mcp_server AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from thu-west/xiyan_mcp_server. It costs 712 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A repository guide that tells an agent how the XiYan MCP Server is organised, built, tested, and maintained. MCP is a standard way for AI tools to connect to external services.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for working on a Python server that turns natural-language questions into SQL queries for GreptimeDB or CockroachDB.
Why use it?
It gives the agent the project's local rules and commands, reducing guesswork when changing code or running tests.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is thu-west/xiyan_mcp_server's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on xiyan_mcp_server 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 xiyan_mcp_server 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

xiyan_mcp_server 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.

Repository Guidelines

XiYan MCP Server converts natural-language questions into SQL and executes them against GreptimeDB/CockroachDB (Python 3.13).

Project Structure & Module Organization

  • src/xiyan_mcp_server/ — package source. server.py is the MCP entry point, runtime.py holds the runtime contract, and utils/ contains database, LLM, embedding, schema, HDFS, and logging modules.
  • tests/ — pytest suite split into unit/, integration/, and e2e/ layers.
  • scripts/ — maintenance and experiment tools (knowledge indexing, judge/batch queries, parquet/HDFS uploads).
  • json/ — schema knowledge base; docs/ — user and developer guides.
  • dataset/, logs/, and query_* output are gitignored runtime artifacts.

Build, Test, and Development Commands

pip install -e ".[dev]"                            # package + dev dependencies
python -m xiyan_mcp_server                         # run in stdio mode
python -m xiyan_mcp_server.server streamable-http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
pytest                                             # unit tests only (default)
pytest -m integration                              # requires MCP server on :8000
pytest -m e2e                                      # end-to-end batch queries
pytest --cov=xiyan_mcp_server --cov-report=term-missing
docker build -t xiyan-mcp-server .                 # container build
docker compose up -d                               # local service stack

Include src/ in PYTHONPATH. Copy src/xiyan_mcp_server/config.example.yml to config.yml (or set YML) before running.

Coding Style & Naming Conventions

  • Follow PEP 8; lint with ruff, format with black.
  • Use snake_case for functions and variables, PascalCase for classes; add type annotations.
  • Log through utils/logger_util.py; wrap database operations in try/except with repair logic.
  • Keep SQL-generation prompts in dedicated prompt modules rather than scattered through handlers.

Testing Guidelines

  • Framework: pytest + pytest-asyncio. Unit tests run by default; integration/e2e are opt-in via markers.
  • Name test files test_<module>.py under the matching tests/ layer; put shared fixtures in that layer's conftest.py.
  • Use tmp_path for temp files instead of hardcoded paths. No coverage threshold is enforced; add tests for every new module and review pytest --cov output.

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.
