Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is timescale/tiger-gh-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on tiger-gh-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 tiger-gh-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

tiger-gh-mcp-server 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 8d 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

Tiger GitHub MCP Server - Development Guidelines

Build, Test & Run Commands

  • Build: ./bun run build - Compiles TypeScript to JavaScript
  • Watch mode: ./bun run watch http - Watches for changes and rebuilds automatically
  • Run server: ./bun run start stdio - Starts the MCP server using stdio transport
  • Checks: ./check - All-in-one command to typecheck and lint. Run before every commit.

Code Style Guidelines

  • Use ES modules with .js extension in import paths
  • Strictly type all functions and variables with TypeScript
  • Follow zod schema patterns for tool input validation
  • Prefer async/await over callbacks and Promise chains
  • Place all imports at top of file, grouped by external then internal
  • Use descriptive variable names that clearly indicate purpose
  • Implement proper cleanup for timers and resources in server shutdown
  • Follow camelCase for variables/functions, PascalCase for types/classes, UPPER_CASE for constants
  • Handle errors with try/catch blocks and provide clear error messages
  • Use consistent indentation (2 spaces) and trailing commas in multi-line objects
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.
