cursor-chat-history-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

cursor-chat-history-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from vltansky/cursor-chat-history-mcp. It costs 2,766 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for an MCP server that lets AI assistants read and analyze local Cursor chat history, meaning past coding conversations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Searching past Cursor chats, finding recurring solutions, generating personalized coding rules, and applying lessons from earlier work.
Why use it?
It helps the assistant use a developer’s real conversations and coding patterns instead of relying only on generic advice.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is vltansky/cursor-chat-history-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on cursor-chat-history-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything cursor-chat-history-mcp configures →

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

cursor-chat-history-mcp AGENTS.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 2mo 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.

Cursor Conversations MCP Server - Project Overview

Core Concept

This project creates an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes your Cursor conversation history to AI assistants like Claude. It acts as a bridge between your local Cursor chat database and AI tools.

Primary Goal

Enable AI assistants to analyze your actual coding conversations to provide personalized, context-aware assistance based on your real development patterns and history.

Key Value Proposition

  • Personalized Coding Rules: Generate coding standards from your actual conversations, not generic best practices
  • Pattern Recognition: Identify recurring themes and solutions in your development work
  • Context-Aware Help: Get assistance informed by your specific projects and coding style
  • Historical Insights: Learn from past problem-solving sessions and apply proven solutions

How It Works

  1. Local Access: Reads your Cursor conversation database directly (no external services)
  2. MCP Protocol: Exposes conversation data through standardized MCP tools
  3. AI Integration: AI assistants can query, analyze, and extract insights from your chat history
  4. Privacy First: All data stays local - no external API calls or data sharing

Common Use Cases

  • "Analyze my React conversations and create component guidelines"
  • "Generate TypeScript rules based on my actual coding patterns"
  • "Find similar debugging sessions and extract solutions"
  • "Create project documentation from relevant conversations"

Technical Architecture

  • Database: SQLite access to Cursor's conversation storage at src/database/
  • MCP Server: TypeScript implementation at src/server.ts
  • Tools: Conversation analysis tools at src/tools/
  • Entry Point: Main configuration in package.json and README.md

General Project Guidelines

Use npm for package management

Code Organization

  • Follow the established directory structure in src/
  • Group related functionality in modules
  • Use barrel exports for clean public APIs

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.
