constitution

constitution is a cursor rule for Cursor from anwerj/youtube-uploader-mcp. It costs 149 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project rule that requires changes to be checked against every numbered principle in a repository's CONSTITUTION.md file. A repository is the project's stored code and related files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to enforce product rules before code changes, while leaving code style and development workflow rules to CONTRIBUTING.md.
Why use it?
It prevents an implementation from quietly violating the project's non-negotiable product principles. Conflicting requests must be reported rather than worked around, and the constitution is not changed incidentally.

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

constitution 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

Constitution Compliance

Before implementing any change, check it against every numbered item in CONSTITUTION.md at the repo root.

  • If a requested change conflicts with an item in CONSTITUTION.md, stop and flag the conflict to the user instead of implementing a workaround or silently violating it.
  • Never edit CONSTITUTION.md itself as a side effect of an unrelated task — changes to it require explicit user/maintainer approval.
  • This rule covers product principles only. For code style, architecture, and dev workflow conventions, see CONTRIBUTING.md.

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.
