buggy: Instructions file for Kiro

.kiro/steering/buggy-onboarding.md

buggy buggy-onboarding.md is an instructions file for Kiro from himanshusaini-afk/buggy. It costs 372 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

An onboarding guide that checks a bug-history report when a developer opens a file. It briefly points out past bugs, risky functions, recurring patterns, and unresolved issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add context when working in files with recorded bug history and to highlight areas that need extra care.
Why use it?
It gives relevant history at the point where code is being examined, without requiring the developer to read the entire report.

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

buggy buggy-onboarding.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 4d 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

Buggy — Onboarding Assistant

When a file is opened that has known bug history (tracked in .debugger/bug-report.md), proactively inform the developer about past issues and risk areas.

When to Activate

When providing context about a file, check if .debugger/bug-report.md exists. If it does, read it and include relevant history in your responses.

What to Share

When a developer is working in a file with bug history:

  1. High-risk functions — functions that have had proven bugs before
  2. Common patterns — recurring bug types in this file (e.g., "this file has had 3 off-by-one errors")
  3. Open bugs — any proven bugs that haven't been fixed yet
  4. Related fixes — patches that were applied to similar bugs in this file

Format

Keep it brief and contextual — don't dump the full report. Example:

💡 Context: This file (src/cart.ts) has had 4 proven bugs historically:
   • calculateSubtotal — negative result for cheap items (fixed)
   • calculateAveragePrice — NaN on empty array (fixed)  
   • applyDiscount — negative total with discount > 100% (fixed)
   • calculateRelatedTotal — infinite recursion with cycles (open ⚠️)

   Be careful with the relatedMap parameter in calculateRelatedTotal.

Rules

  1. Only mention this when it's relevant to what the user is doing
  2. Don't repeat the same warning in every response
  3. Prioritize OPEN (unfixed) bugs over historical fixed ones
  4. If the user is modifying a function with past bugs, warn once
  5. If no bug report exists or the file has no history, say nothing
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.
