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

SharkMath-MCP copilot-instructions.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.

Copilot Instructions for MCP Python Tutorial Codebase

Project Overview

This is an MCP server providing comprehensive mathematical tools for solving problems across multiple domains

Core Architecture

MCP Server Types

  1. SharkMath Server (sharkmath_server.py) - Mathematical tools

Key Components

  • FastMCP servers - All servers use FastMCP("Server Name") pattern
  • SharkMath Server - Comprehensive mathematical calculation server with tools across all mathematical domains

Development Patterns

MCP Server Structure

from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP
mcp = FastMCP("Server Name")

@mcp.prompt()          # Template functions
@mcp.tool()            # Executable functions  
@mcp.resource()        # Data access functions

Environment Setup

  • Uses uv package manager (configured in .vscode/mcp.json)
  • Virtual environment in mcp-env/ directory
  • VS Code MCP configuration: uv --directory . run sharkmath_server.py

SharkMath Architecture

  • Main server pattern - sharkmath_server.py imports and registers tools from modules
  • Module registration - Each module has register_tools(mcp) function
  • Dual import context - Handles both direct execution and module imports
  • Parameter-based routing - Tools use operation parameters to route to specific functions
  • Consistent error handling - All functions use ✅/❌ prefixes
  • Domain validation - Input validation specific to each mathematical operation

Critical Workflows

Running MCP Servers

uv run SharkMath/sharkmath_server.py

VS Code MCP Integration

  • Configure servers in .vscode/mcp.json
  • Use server name "sharkmath-mcp" for tools server
  • MCP servers connect to VS Code Copilot chat via configuration

Project-Specific Conventions

Async/Context Patterns

  • MCP tools use Context parameter for AI sampling
  • Sampling pattern: ctx.session.create_message() with SamplingMessage
  • Always handle JSON parsing errors in tools that generate content

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.
