mcp

mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from arcjet/arcjet-js. It costs 40 tokens per session (478 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup guide for connecting an AI coding client to the Arcjet MCP server, a remote service that provides tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect supported clients, list teams and sites, inspect requests and guards, investigate IPs, and test or promote Arcjet rules.
Why use it?
It gives the server address, client configuration examples, and a cautious order for inspecting sites, traffic, and remote rules.

SkillSpector: 5 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Agent Snooping · line 33
    Skill accesses MCP server configuration files (mcp.json). MCP configs contain server URLs, authentication tokens, and tool definitions — reading them allows the skill to discover and potentially abuse other tool integrations.
    Fix: Remove all code or instructions that read MCP configuration files (mcp.json). MCP server details should be managed by the agent runtime, not read by individual skills.

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 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.

What it actually says

Arcjet MCP server

Endpoint: https://api.arcjet.com/mcp only. OAuth on first connect. Enable write confirmations. Prefer @arcjet/skills#cli when a terminal is available.

Cursor — .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "arcjet": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://api.arcjet.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code — .vscode/mcp.json with "type": "http" and the same URL.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add arcjet --transport http https://api.arcjet.com/mcp

Bootstrap: list-teams → list-sites → get-site-key → write ARCJET_KEY. Agent identity (not human browser OAuth): follow https://arcjet.com/auth.md. Investigate: analyze-traffic, list-requests, list-guards, investigate-ip. Remote rules: create-rule (DRY_RUN) → get-dry-run-impact → promote-rule. Guard policies (MCP-only; no CLI commands): list-guard-policies → describe-guard-policy → validate-guard-policy → put-guard-policy. Application policies select by label / action. Coding-agent policies attach by Execute on (Tool call, Prompt, or Model switch). Install Claude Code / Copilot hooks from https://docs.arcjet.com/coding-agents — copy the templates. The hook URL must not name a policy and must omit ?surface=.

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.
