Getting it into your agent

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00019 | $0.00862 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00345 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00172 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00086 |
Grade A, and why
rescue 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 1mo 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
Invoke the cursor:cursor-rescue subagent via the Agent tool (subagent_type: "cursor:cursor-rescue"), forwarding the raw user request as the prompt.
cursor:cursor-rescue is a subagent, not a skill — do not call Skill(cursor:cursor-rescue) (no such skill) or Skill(cursor:rescue) (that re-enters this command and hangs the session). The command runs inline so the Agent tool stays in scope.
The final user-visible response must be Cursor's output verbatim.
Raw user request: $ARGUMENTS
Execution mode:
- If the request includes
--background, run thecursor:cursor-rescuesubagent in the background. - If the request includes
--wait, run thecursor:cursor-rescuesubagent in the foreground. - If neither flag is present, default to foreground.
--backgroundand--waitare execution flags for Claude Code. Do not forward them totask, and do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.--modeland--read-onlyare runtime-selection flags. Preserve them for the forwardedtaskcall, but do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.- If the request includes
--resumeor--fresh, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose. - Otherwise, before starting Cursor, check for a resumable rescue thread from this Claude session by running:
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/cursor-companion.mjs" task-resume-candidate --json
- If that helper reports
available: true, useAskUserQuestionexactly once to ask whether to continue the current Cursor thread or start a new one. - The two choices must be:
Continue current Cursor threadStart a new Cursor thread
- If the user is clearly giving a follow-up instruction such as "continue", "keep going", "resume", "apply the top fix", or "dig deeper", put
Continue current Cursor thread (Recommended)first. - Otherwise put
Start a new Cursor thread (Recommended)first. - If the user chooses continue, add
--resumebefore routing to the subagent. - If the user chooses a new thread, add
--freshbefore routing to the subagent. - If the helper reports
available: false, do not ask. Route normally.
Operating rules:
- The subagent is a thin forwarder only. It should use one
Bashcall to invokenode "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/cursor-companion.mjs" task ...and return that command's stdout as-is. - Return the Cursor companion stdout verbatim to the user.
- Do not paraphrase, summarize, rewrite, or add commentary before or after it.
- Do not ask the subagent to inspect files, monitor progress, poll
/cursor:status, fetch/cursor:result, call/cursor:cancel, summarize output, or do follow-up work of its own. - Cursor edits files by default. Add
--read-onlyonly if the user wants analysis/diagnosis without edits. - Leave the model unset unless the user explicitly asks for one. Aliases (
spark,review,max,opus) are resolved by the companion. - Leave
--resume,--fresh, and--read-onlyin the forwarded request. The subagent handles that routing when it builds thetaskcommand. - If the helper reports that Cursor is missing or unauthenticated, stop and tell the user to run
/cursor:setup. - If the user did not supply a request, ask what Cursor should investigate or fix.
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.

rescue is a command published in the GitHub repository Armert-Labs/cursor-plugin (3 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 862 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
Other commands, from other repositories
quick-fix
Implement→review subagent loop with no planning phase, for a fix whose cause is known and whose shape is obvious, however many files it touches. No spec, no worktree, no docs or signals at the end; one audit. Routes to /subagent-diagnose on an unknown cause and to /atomic-plan on an open approach or contract choice.
ccc-debug-session
Run a structured debug session: gather context, rank hypotheses, test them without editing code, then fix with a regression test and record the lesson. Use when a bug's cause is unclear.
maintain
Run automated maintenance — seeker finds bugs from pod logs and raises GitHub issues, fixer picks them up and creates PRs. Can run as a one-shot or scheduled via /schedule.
