aptu-coder src-languages.instructions.md

Project instructions for adding programming-language support to a code-analysis tool. They cover language registration, tree-sitter queries, handler function shapes, optional fields, and Kotlin-specific details.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when adding or reviewing language handlers, registering file extensions, writing tree-sitter queries, checking handler signatures, or changing Kotlin-related parsing behavior.
Why use it?
They reduce mistakes that can leave a new language only partly supported or make code searches return incorrect results. They also give reviewers consistent checks for language integrations.

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

aptu-coder src-languages.instructions.md 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 2d 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

LanguageInfo registration

New language handlers must register all fields in src/languages/mod.rs get_language_info(). Flag a new language file in src/languages/ that is not matched by a new arm in the get_language_info match block.

Flag a new language extension that is not added to the map in src/lang.rs.

tree-sitter query strings

  • Queries must use named captures (@func_name, @call, @import_path). Flag positional-only captures.
  • IMPL_TRAIT_QUERY must only match (type_identifier) for the trait name -- scoped traits (impl io::Sink for T) are intentionally out of scope. Flag attempts to extend it to scoped_type_identifier.

Handler function signatures

All four handler function types must match the type aliases in src/languages/mod.rs:

  • ExtractFunctionNameHandler: fn(&Node, &str, &str) -> Option<String>
  • FindMethodForReceiverHandler: fn(&Node, &str, Option<usize>) -> Option<String>
  • FindReceiverTypeHandler: fn(&Node, &str) -> Option<String>
  • ExtractInheritanceHandler: fn(&Node, &str) -> Vec<String>

Flag handler functions with signatures that deviate from these types.

Optional fields

reference_query, import_query, impl_query, impl_trait_query are Option<&'static str>. Use None for languages that do not support the concept. Flag Some("") (empty string) as a substitute for None.

Kotlin-specific notes

Kotlin registers two extensions: .kt (source) and .kts (script). Both map to the same LanguageInfo entry. When writing Kotlin tree-sitter queries, note that .kts files may contain top-level expressions that .kt source files do not; queries should not assume a class or object wrapper is always present.

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.

aptu-coder src-languages.instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository clouatre-labs/aptu-coder (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 447 tokens to every session, about $0.0022 per session on Opus 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.
