mcp-trino: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

mcp-trino CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from tuannvm/mcp-trino. It costs 1,919 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide for mcp-trino, a Go tool that lets AI assistants use Trino, a system for querying data across distributed databases, and also provides a command-line interface for people. It describes the technology and development commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing or checking the Go program, running its tests with race detection, starting it from source, or preparing a release build.
Why use it?
It explains the tool’s two operating modes and gives developers a consistent way to build, test, run, clean, and lint it.

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is tuannvm/mcp-trino's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mcp-trino 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 mcp-trino 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

mcp-trino 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 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.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

mcp-trino is a dual-purpose tool that works as both:

  1. MCP Server - Enables AI assistants to interact with Trino's distributed SQL query engine through standardized MCP tools
  2. Interactive CLI - psql-like REPL for direct human access to Trino databases

The tool automatically detects which mode to use based on arguments and environment.

Architecture

Core Components

  1. Main Entry Point (cmd/main.go):
    • Dual-mode detection (MCP vs CLI based on args/environment)
    • MCP server initialization and Trino connection testing
    • Transport selection (STDIO vs HTTP with SSE)
    • Graceful shutdown with signal handling
    • CORS support for web clients
    • Version management and build metadata

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.
