RulePort logging-standards.instructions.md

RulePort logging-standards.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from lewiesnyder/RulePort. It costs 151 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for writing application logs, which are records of what software is doing and why it failed. It defines log levels such as info, warning, debug, and error.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide what information logs should contain, choose appropriate log levels, record errors consistently, and keep detailed debug output behind a DEBUG setting.
Why use it?
It makes logs more consistent and useful when diagnosing problems. Including timestamps, metadata, error messages, and stack traces gives developers the context needed to investigate failures.

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

RulePort logging-standards.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 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

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 DEBUG environment 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.

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.
