mcp-server-for-ynab: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/local-workflow-reproducibility/SKILL.md

local-workflow-reproducibility is a skill for Claude Code from hs737/mcp-server-for-ynab. It costs 28 tokens per session (529 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for turning repeated local setup and manual-testing steps into documented, repeatable scripts. Seed data means sample records used to create a known test state.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for local setup, database resets, test data seeding, fixtures, and repeatable manual test scenarios, with safeguards around destructive actions.
Why use it?
It reduces errors caused by repeating setup steps by hand or relying on undocumented team knowledge.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: shipped in a Claude Code plugin. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md.

This is hs737/mcp-server-for-ynab's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mcp-server-for-ynab 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 mcp-server-for-ynab 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

local-workflow-reproducibility 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.

Local Workflow Reproducibility

Use this skill when local development or manual testing depends on repeated setup, seed, reset, fixture, or scenario-loading steps.

Use When

  • local setup is repetitive or error-prone
  • realistic test state requires many manual steps
  • developers are copying IDs, tokens, or env values between tools
  • manual testing depends on exact ordering
  • seed or reset flows need guardrails

Read First

  • AGENTS.md (if present)
  • README.md and pyproject.toml (scripts, optional groups, entry points)
  • Makefile or scripts/ if present
  • Environment docs (for example docs/environment.md, .env.example)
  • Existing fixtures under tests/, scripts/, or tools/

Core Rules

  1. Repeated workflows should become scripts or documented commands, not tribal knowledge.
  2. Destructive reset flows should be explicit and guarded (confirm DB name, env file, or --dry-run where appropriate).
  3. Scenario data should be intentional and named.
  4. Local workflows should prefer exercising real app code paths where practical (run the MCP server, call tools via inspector/CLI).
  5. Docs should explain how to reset, seed, and test locally—including required env vars (for example YNAB API tokens) without committing secrets.
  6. Use a virtual environment (uv, venv, poetry) consistently; document the canonical install and run commands.

Workflow

  1. Identify repeated manual setup pain.
  2. Decide whether it needs reset, load, list, or verify commands.
  3. Script the workflow with safety checks (Python CLI, make targets, or shell wrappers that call python -m ...).
  4. Document the command surface and expected state.
  5. Add or update pytest fixtures or seed data as the model evolves.

Common Failure Modes

  • manual setup requires many fragile steps
  • resets can accidentally target the wrong environment
  • scenarios drift from current schema or tool contracts
  • docs list workflows that no longer work
  • secrets committed or assumed in docs
  • “works on my machine” without pinned deps in pyproject.toml / lockfile

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.

local-workflow-reproducibility is a skill published in the GitHub repository hs737/mcp-server-for-ynab (1 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 529 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
