hpe-networking-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.github/skills/lookup-api/SKILL.md

lookup-api is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from secure-ssid/hpe-networking-mcp. It costs 89 tokens per session (393 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A local lookup tool for Aruba Central and Mist network APIs. An API is a defined way for software to communicate; this tool finds the exact request paths, methods, fields, and allowed values in the available OpenAPI specifications.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find an endpoint, determine whether it uses GET, POST, or another method, inspect request fields, or check the allowed values for an API enum.
Why use it?
Network APIs often require exact endpoint names and field values, and guessing them can lead to failed requests. This tool provides specification-based answers and identifies where each definition appears.

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

This is secure-ssid/hpe-networking-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on hpe-networking-mcp 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 hpe-networking-mcp 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

lookup-api 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 8d 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

lookup-api skill

You have access to a parsed OpenAPI index (SQLite) via hpe-networking-mcp. Use lookup_api for precise, authoritative API answers. Fall back to search_docs only when lookup_api returns empty results.

Workflow

  1. Call invoke_read_tool(name="lookup_api", arguments={"query": "..."}).
  2. If results are empty, call invoke_read_tool(name="search_docs", arguments={"query": "..."}).
  3. Always include the file_path / operationId in your answer so the user can find the spec entry.

Coverage

  • Aruba Central: System, Security, Routing, Network Services, Interfaces, Monitoring, VLANs, Wireless, NAC, Troubleshooting, Telemetry, and more (~3,165 endpoints across 31 spec categories)
  • Mist: Full Mist REST API (~1,050 endpoints)

Example invocations

invoke_read_tool(
  name="lookup_api",
  arguments={"query": "DELETE endpoint to remove a WLAN from Mist site"}
)

invoke_read_tool(
  name="lookup_api",
  arguments={"query": "auth_type enum values for Central SSID profile"}
)

invoke_read_tool(
  name="lookup_api",
  arguments={"query": "GET /network-monitoring/v1/aps/{serial}"}
)
Changes

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.
