mq lsp.instructions.md

Coding rules for Language Server Protocol (LSP) support in mq, a tool for querying Markdown from the command line. LSP is a standard that lets code editors communicate with language tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when adding or changing editor features, protocol messages, asynchronous handlers, error reporting, or LSP integration tests.
Why use it?
They help keep editor integration reliable and make unexpected messages or user errors easier to handle.

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

mq lsp.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 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

Language Server Protocol (LSP) Coding Rules

  • Follow LSP specification and conventions for all protocol handling.
  • Clearly separate protocol, transport, and business logic.
  • Document all public types and functions, especially those exposed to LSP clients.
  • Write integration tests for LSP features and message handling.
  • Use miette for error reporting to the user where possible.
  • Avoid blocking operations in async handlers.
  • Ensure robust handling of invalid or unexpected LSP messages.
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.
