cursor

cursor is a cursor rule for Cursor from ashishcloud/agentpulse-pulse. It costs 20 tokens per session (327 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Cursor rules for using Pulse, a contract-based process for taking requirements through planning and coding. Cursor is a coding editor, and Pulse uses a project board plus validation and human approval steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running Pulse engagements, submitting structured results, resolving schema errors, requesting decisions on product blockers, claiming board items, and verifying completed work.
Why use it?
It defines who handles each part of the process and prevents work from being treated as finished before the validation gate passes.

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 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 1mo 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

Pulse engagement (Cursor)

Register the MCP server in .cursor/mcp.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "pulse": { "command": "npx", "args": ["pulse-mcp"] } } }

When the user asks to run an engagement, drive the pulse MCP tools — Pulse owns the method + contract + validation; you own the model, the UI, and the human gate:

  1. pulse_start with the requirements.
  2. pulse_next → run each task prompt on your model; fill its JSON schema exactly.
  3. pulse_submit the results. Fix any schemaErrors and resubmit. Surface productBlockers to the user for a decision; do NOT surface autoResolved (architecture points the contract already dictates).
  4. pulse_gate({approved:true, decisions}) only after the user approves. Silence = not approved.
  5. Repeat Stories → Architecture → Build. In Build, implement one board item at a time; pulse_claim it first.
  6. pulse_verify — "done" is the gate command going green, never your judgment.
  7. If .pulse/sync.json is enabled, pulse_sync then reflect the board into the connected PM MCP.

The project board is .pulse/board.json (truth) / .pulse/BOARD.md (view). Never hand-edit BOARD.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.
