servicenow-cmdb

servicenow-cmdb is a skill for Claude Code from jschuller/mcp-server-servicenow. It costs 93 tokens per session (1,474 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A ServiceNow workflow for exploring the Configuration Management Database, or CMDB. A CMDB records IT components, called configuration items, and the relationships between them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect CI classes, map dependencies, review CMDB health and data quality, and assess service taxonomy against CSDM, ServiceNow's common service-data model.
Why use it?
It helps reveal how the CMDB is organised and identify missing, duplicate, disconnected, or unreliable data.

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

servicenow-cmdb 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 11d 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.

ServiceNow CMDB Data Foundations

Explore CI classes, map dependencies, assess CMDB health, investigate data quality, and review CSDM service taxonomy. See references/cmdb-tables.md for CI classes, health KPIs, CSDM mappings, and encoded query syntax.

Workflows

1. Explore CI Class Hierarchy

Discover what CI classes exist and their structure.

Progress checklist (copy into your response):

- [ ] Get base CI table schema
- [ ] Sample populated CI classes
- [ ] Check class-specific fields
- [ ] Summarize class inventory
  1. Get the base CI table schema:
    get_table_schema(table_name="cmdb_ci")
    
  2. List CIs by class to see what's populated:
    list_ci(class_name="cmdb_ci_server", limit=10)
    list_ci(class_name="cmdb_ci_computer", limit=10)
    list_ci(class_name="cmdb_ci_app_server", limit=10)
    
  3. Check class-specific fields by getting the schema for a subclass:
    get_table_schema(table_name="cmdb_ci_server")
    
  4. Summarize which classes have data and how many CIs each contains.

2. Map CI Dependencies

Trace upstream and downstream dependencies for a given CI.

Progress checklist:

- [ ] Find target CI
- [ ] Get CI details
- [ ] Get relationships
- [ ] Build dependency tree
- [ ] Present upstream/downstream map
  1. Find the target CI:
    list_ci(class_name="cmdb_ci", query="nameLIKE<search_term>", limit=10)
    
  2. Get the CI details:
    get_ci(sys_id="<ci_sys_id>")
    
  3. Get all relationships:
    get_ci_relationships(sys_id="<ci_sys_id>")
    
  4. For each related CI, optionally recurse one level deeper to build a dependency map.
  5. Present results as an upstream/downstream tree showing relationship types.

3. Assess CMDB Health

Query the CMDB Health Dashboard tables for data quality KPIs. Uses a validation loop: assess -> identify issues -> remediate -> re-assess.

Progress checklist:

- [ ] Query health audit results
- [ ] Check active health rules
- [ ] Get health scores by class
- [ ] Identify top failing rules
- [ ] Recommend remediation actions
- [ ] (Optional) Re-assess after fixes

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.
