Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.01073 | $0.01073 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00536 | $0.00536 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00215 | $0.00215 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00107 | $0.00107 |
Grade A, and why
RulePort copilot-instructions.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.
Runs shell commandslowCapability
Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.
- Minimize external dependencies. Usage of native `fs`, `path`, and `child_process` is preferred. How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 154 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AI Assistant Rules
This file consolidates all rules from cursor configuration.
Always Apply Rules
These rules apply to all files:
logging-standards
Logging standards and best practices
Logging Standards
Logging Format
- Include timestamp, log level, message, and any relevant metadata.
- Use log levels (e.g.,
info,warn,debug,error).
Error Logging
- Always include error messages and stack traces in error logs.
Debug Logging
- Debug logs should be gated behind a
DEBUGenvironment variable. - Use debug level for verbose logging.
Logging levels
- Use info level for general information.
- Use warn level for warnings.
- Use debug level for detailed debugging.
- Use error level for errors.

Project Standards
Primary Reference Documents
ALWAYS refer to:
specifications/SPEC_CONSTITUTION.md- Project-wide standards
Tasks
Predefined tasks can be found in the ./specifications/tasks dir. Use these when crafting features and planning your work. You will be told which task to pick up.
Commit Protocol
- Use Conventional Commits format:
type(scope): subject.- Types:
feat,fix,docs,refactor,test,chore. - Example:
feat(sync): add support for --target flag
- Types:
Documentation
- Keep README Updated: Any change to a user's interaction with
ruleportmust be reflected inREADME.md. - Self-Documenting Code: Complex logic in sync scripts must have comments explaining the "why", not just the "how".
File Organization
- New features should be modular.
- Do not create files in the root directory unless they are critical configuration or entry points.
typescript-standards
Typescript coding standards
TypeScript Standards
Syntax
- Use ES Modules (
import/export) for all TypeScript files. - Use
constfor variables that don't change,letfor those that do. Avoidvar. - Use String Interpolation (Template Literals) over concatenation.
- Use Interfaces for object definitions and public contracts.
- Use Explicit Return Types for public functions to ensure stable contracts.
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.

RulePort copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository lewiesnyder/RulePort (2 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,073 tokens to every session, about $0.0054 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
