mcp-tool-naming

mcp-tool-naming is a cursor rule for Cursor from kontent-ai/mcp-server. It costs 0 tokens per session (135 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of naming rules for Kontent.ai MCP tools. The pattern uses an action followed by the full name of the content-management entity involved.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when naming tools for Kontent.ai content types, content items, variants, snippets, taxonomy groups, or filtered lists.
Why use it?
It makes tool names predictable and avoids vague or abbreviated names that are difficult to understand.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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-tool-naming 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

When creating or modifying MCP tools, follow these naming conventions:

  • Format: [action]-[entity]
  • Use full entity names: content-type, content-type-snippet, content-item, content-item-variant, taxonomy-group
  • For list tools filtered by another entity: list-[entity]-by-[filter-entity] (e.g., list-content-item-variants-by-collection)
  • Examples: get-content-type, list-content-item-variants, patch-content-type-snippet

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.
