mcp-integration-reference

mcp-integration-reference is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from FlorianBruniaux/claude-code-plugins. It costs 61 tokens per session (1,037 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A template for building skills that use an MCP server, a system that lets an agent call external tools or services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating domain-specific MCP integrations with a reference guide for reliable queries.
Why use it?
It reduces failed tool calls by documenting server-specific parameters, errors, limits, and working examples.

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-integration-reference 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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

MCP Integration Reference Pattern

This is a template skill. It shows how to structure a skill that wraps an MCP server. Replace sentry with your MCP server name and adapt the reference file at references/sentry-mcp.md.

What This Pattern Solves

When a skill calls an MCP server without prior context, Claude guesses at the query syntax. This works for simple calls but breaks on anything with non-obvious behavior: pagination quirks, required parameter combinations, rate limits, or subtle format restrictions.

The fix: a references/<mcp-name>.md file that captures all the gotchas. The skill reads this file before making any MCP call. Zero guessing.

Three types of content go in the reference file:

  1. Parameter semantics that differ from what the tool name implies
  2. Known error patterns and their root causes
  3. Working query examples (copy-paste, no thinking required)

Step 1: Read the MCP Reference File

Before doing anything else, read the full MCP reference:

Read: references/sentry-mcp.md

This file contains query syntax, known gotchas, and working examples for the Sentry MCP. Do not skip this step.


Step 2: Gather Scope from User

Ask the user:

  • Time range: Last 24h? 7 days? Custom range?
  • Environments: production, staging, or both?
  • Projects: All projects or specific ones? (Default: all)

If the user says "just run it with defaults", use:

  • Time range: last 72 hours
  • Environment: production only
  • Projects: all

Step 3: Fetch Error Data

Using the tool knowledge from Step 1, fetch:

  1. Issue list: Active unresolved issues, ordered by frequency
  2. Event details: Full stack traces for the top 5 issues by event count

Cap results at 50 issues. If more exist, note the count and focus on the highest-frequency items.


Step 4: Group and Analyze

Group issues by root cause, not by error message. Two issues with different messages can share the same underlying cause (shared code path, same external dependency, same config).

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.
