cursor-rules.example

A set of Cursor editor rules for handling production credentials, webhook secrets, API keys, and environment-variable values.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to require secret references, provision or generate secrets, capture or enter them through the Secret Shuttle tool, and verify operations without revealing the values.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent rules for keeping sensitive values out of chats, files, logs, screenshots, and inspection tools.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

cursor-rules.example 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 yesterday.

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

Cursor Rules For Secret Shuttle

When working with production credentials, webhook signing secrets, API keys, or env var values:

  • never put raw values in chat, files, logs, or screenshots
  • use Secret Shuttle refs instead of raw values
  • run npx secret-shuttle init once per project before the first secret operation
  • prefer secret-shuttle provision (the magic path) — one approval to provision a project's secrets or a single --secret, with capture/inject driven for you
  • use secret-shuttle provision --secret <NAME> --from random_32_bytes for new secrets
  • to capture a secret revealed on a page, secret-shuttle browser mark the controls then secret-shuttle reveal-capture (blind mode is daemon-managed inside it)
  • to write a secret into a focused field, secret-shuttle browser mark the field + submit control then secret-shuttle inject-submit
  • verify with non-secret signals only — secret-shuttle audit and ref fingerprints via secret-shuttle secrets get-ref, never by revealing the value
  • do not inspect DOM, accessibility tree, console, network bodies, or clipboard while blind mode is active
  • approve production actions in the Secret Shuttle window your browser opens — there is no CLI flag that bypasses approval
  • use secret-shuttle template run vercel-env-add ... to hand a secret to an external binary

Safe values to mention:

  • refs such as ss://stripe/prod/STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET
  • fingerprints
  • destination domains
  • field names
  • non-secret status

Unsafe values to mention:

  • whsec_...
  • sk_live_...
  • service-role keys
  • private tokens
  • generated secret bodies
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.

cursor-rules.example is an agent published in the GitHub repository pdumicz/secret-shuttle (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 366 tokens. 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.
