mcp-server-uiautomation architecture-patterns.instructions.md

mcp-server-uiautomation architecture-patterns.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from trsdn/mcp-server-uiautomation. It costs 90 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Architecture guidance for a Windows UI Automation toolkit, which lets software control and inspect Windows interfaces. It defines how the toolkit's shared service, command-line tool, and MCP server should work together.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or changing UI Automation queries, shared services, command-line commands, or MCP server behavior. It helps keep all access paths consistent.
Why use it?
It prevents the same behavior from being implemented differently in separate entry points and keeps Windows UI access safe on the required STA threads.

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

mcp-server-uiautomation architecture-patterns.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 5d 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

UIAutomationMcp Architecture Patterns

  • Keep the active layers aligned: ComInterop -> Service -> CLI/MCP Server.
  • UI Automation access must remain safe on STA threads.
  • Shared behavior belongs in UIAutomationMcp.Service or UIAutomationMcp.ComInterop, not duplicated across entry points.
  • If a UIA query is added publicly, keep CLI and MCP behavior aligned.
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.
