setup-new-feature

setup-new-feature is a command for Cursor from emaraschio/cursor-commands. It costs 11 tokens per session (391 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command workflow for setting up the initial structure of a new software feature across the project’s needed layers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scaffold a new feature according to the repository’s current structure, naming rules, and development conventions.
Why use it?
It helps start a feature consistently without adding unnecessary files or ignoring the project’s existing organization.

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

setup-new-feature 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 5d 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

Overview

Scaffold a new feature across layers. Full workflow: .cursor/skill-contracts/setup-new-feature/SKILL.md (user install: ~/.cursor/skill-contracts/setup-new-feature/SKILL.md).

Defaults

None. See skill for workflow defaults.

Steps

  1. Read .cursor/skill-contracts/setup-new-feature/SKILL.md for the full agent contract; if that file is missing, read ~/.cursor/skill-contracts/setup-new-feature/SKILL.md.
  2. Execute the workflow in order; do not skip safety steps.
  3. Report outcomes per skill (summary, tables, or checklist as specified).

Anti-patterns

  • Do not over-engineer the scaffold. Trigger: standing up the structure for a new feature. Wrong: adding layers, abstractions, or files the feature does not yet need. Correct: scaffold the minimum the feature requires and grow it as real needs appear. Reason: speculative structure is dead weight every later change has to carry.
  • Match the existing project structure. Trigger: deciding where new files and modules belong. Wrong: inventing a new layout or convention beside the established one. Correct: mirror the repository's existing structure, naming, and conventions. Reason: a divergent layout fragments the codebase and slows everyone who navigates it.

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.
