sagemath-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

sagemath-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from XBP-Europe/sagemath-mcp. It costs 3,738 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide for SageMath MCP, a server that lets language models run SageMath calculations while keeping variables between calls.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing, testing, linting, packaging, or running integration tests for the SageMath MCP server.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent the repository’s setup, linting, testing, and build rules, including which tests need the SageMath runtime.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is XBP-Europe/sagemath-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on sagemath-mcp 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 sagemath-mcp 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

sagemath-mcp 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 yesterday.

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

SageMath MCP is a Model Context Protocol server exposing stateful SageMath computations to LLM clients via FastMCP. Each MCP session gets a dedicated Sage worker subprocess with persistent variable state across tool calls.

Commands

uv pip install -e .[dev]          # Install with dev extras
make lint                          # uv run ruff check
make typecheck                     # uv run mypy (src/sagemath_mcp; CI runs it too)
make test                          # uv run pytest (pure Python, no Sage needed)
make integration-test              # pytest inside Sage Docker container
make build                         # Build wheel + sdist via scripts/build_release.py
make sage-container                # Bootstrap the Sage Docker container
uv run pytest tests/tools/test_core.py -k "test_name"  # Run a single test

Unit tests run with SAGEMATH_MCP_PURE_PYTHON=1 (uses Python math stdlib instead of Sage). Integration tests require docker exec sage-mcp and real Sage runtime.

Linting

Ruff with line-length 100, target Python 3.12. Rules: E, F, W, B, UP, ASYNC, RUF, I (import sorting), and S (Bandit) for src/ only -- each noqa: S... there carries its reason. mypy checks src/sagemath_mcp (the package ships py.typed); sage_code/ is excluded because it is Sage source. Run make lint and make typecheck before committing.

Testing

  • All async tests use @pytest.mark.asyncio (asyncio_mode is "auto")
  • Tests mirror source modules: test_server.py, test_session.py, test_security.py, test_config.py, etc. Tool tests live in tests/tools/test_<domain>.py (diagnostics, verify and prompts in tests/test_diagnostics.py, test_verify.py and test_prompts.py); tests/stubs.py holds StubSession and _stub_manager.
  • test_integration.py, test_use_cases.py and most of test_math_coverage.py require the Sage container
  • Key fixtures: python_settings (injects force_python_worker=True), FakeContext (records progress events; it has no info/warning/error on purpose, because the server sends no MCP log notifications)

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.
