navigravity: Skill for Claude Code

.agent/skills/mcp-development/SKILL.md

mcp-development is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from miziodel/navigravity. It costs 21 tokens per session (645 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Development guidance for building and maintaining Navidrome MCP tools and resources. Navidrome is music-server software, and MCP is a standard way for an agent to use external tools and data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when implementing or updating Navidrome MCP server tools and resources.
Why use it?
It gives developers consistent rules for logging, input validation, error handling, search fallbacks, and keeping documentation aligned with code.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

This is miziodel/navigravity's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on navigravity 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 navigravity 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

mcp-development 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 2mo 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.

MCP Development Standards

This skill defines the technical standards for the Navidrome MCP ecosystem.

1. Professional Logging (Local JSON)

We use a structured local JSON logging system. Do NOT use standard print() or basic logging.info().

  • Implementation: Use the @log_execution decorator for all tools.
  • Pattern:
    • logger.info("Message", extra={"key": "value"})
    • Fields: timestamp, level, name, message, tool, inputs, duration_ms, result_summary.
  • Level: Use DEBUG for verbose tech details, INFO for tool execution success, ERROR for failures with exc_info=True.

2. Safety & Validation

  • ID Validation: All Navidrome IDs should be validated as 32-character hex strings where possible.
  • Fail Fast: If a dependency (like Navidrome connection) is down, the tool should return a structured error JSON instead of crashing.
  • Fuzzy Fallback: For search tools, if a strict search returns no results, implement a secondary "fuzzy" search or broader query before giving up.

3. Code-to-Doc Synchronization (CRITICAL)

Architectural decisions in documentation MUST be mirrored in the MCP server resources.

  • If docs/architecture/curator_manifesto.md is updated, the CURATOR_MANIFESTO_TEXT constant in src/navidrome_mcp_server.py MUST be updated in the same task.
  • Ensure usage_guide() prompt in code reflects all current tools available in the server.

4. Tool Protocol

  • Naming: Use lowercase with underscores (e.g., get_smart_candidates).
  • Descriptions: Must be clear and describe parameters accurately for LLM consumption.
  • Returns: Always return a JSON-stringified object or list for structured parsing.

4. TDD Workflow

Every bug fix or new tool MUST follow this cycle:

  1. Create a tests/test_filename.py.
  2. Write a test that reproduces the bug or defines the desired behavior.
  3. Verify the test fails.
  4. Implement the fix/feature in src/navidrome_mcp_server.py.
  5. Verify the test passes.

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.
