api-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

api-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from ZapSign/api-mcp. It costs 845 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a remote MCP server that connects Claude to ZapSign, an electronic-signature service, through OAuth and a web API.

In plain words
What is it for?
Guiding work on the server's authentication, API client, MCP tools, tests, and Cloudflare Worker structure.
Why use it?
They give an agent the project rules, architecture, required reading, and coding constraints before it changes the code.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

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

api-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 1mo 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.

ZapSign MCP Server — Claude Code Instructions

What This Project Is

Remote MCP server (Cloudflare Workers + TypeScript) that connects Claude AI to ZapSign's electronic signature API via OAuth 2.1. Target: Anthropic MCP Connectors Directory.

MANDATORY: Read Before Any Task

  1. AGENTS.md — Coding standards, architecture patterns, commit convention. Non-negotiable.
  2. The assigned task, issue, or pull request — Scope, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and blockers.
  3. Relevant code, tests, and documentation — Confirm the current contract before changing it.

Architecture

src/index.ts          → Worker entry (OAuthProvider wiring)
src/server.ts         → McpServer factory (new per request)
src/auth/             → OAuth handler, API token validation, token exchange
src/api/              → ZapSign HTTP client + endpoint constants
src/errors/           → Error hierarchy (base, api, auth, valid.)
src/types/            → Cloudflare Env bindings, ZapSign API types
src/utils/            → Logger, MCP response formatters, scope
src/tools/            → 12 MCP tools (docs×5, signers×4, tpl×3)

Non-Negotiable Rules (from AGENTS.md)

  • No any — use unknown + type guards
  • No else after return — early return pattern always
  • No switch — use Record<string, handler> maps
  • No enum — use as const objects
  • No as assertions — except with untyped libs (comment why)
  • Max 40 lines per function, max 2 nesting levels
  • McpServer created PER REQUEST (CVE GHSA-345p-7cg4-v4c7) — never cache globally
  • Tools never call fetch() directly — always through ZapSignClient
  • Every tool needs annotations: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint: true, title
  • Tool responses: JSON.stringify(result) — no pretty-print, 25k token limit
  • Error messages must be ACTIONABLE for Claude (explain how to recover)

Dev Commands

npm run dev          # wrangler dev (local server)
npm run typecheck    # tsc --noEmit
npm run lint         # eslint src/
npm run test         # vitest run
npm run deploy       # wrangler deploy

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.
