new-project-standard is a cursor rule for Cursor from autogrammar/todo2code. It costs 238 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository rules for a ticket-based coding workflow. They require an approved ticket, a dedicated branch or worktree, restricted file paths, and checks before completion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Managing authorised development tasks and enforcing branch, scope, hook, and governance requirements.
Why use it?
They prevent work on the wrong branch, unapproved changes, invented ticket numbers, and commits that bypass the project’s validation process.

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

new-project-standard 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 today.

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

new-project standard (host-agnostic)

Before writing code in this repository:

  1. Read AGENTS.md and the active ticket. Reuse an IN_PROGRESS ticket only when workstream and scope match.
  2. Otherwise run ./project/new-ticket.sh --title "..." --agent "..." --workstream "...".
  3. Work in a dedicated worktree/branch whose name contains ticket-NNN. Do not commit on main or a dirty primary checkout.
  4. Stay inside intent.json allowedPaths. Commercial SSOT / offer / brand facades need the integration workstream.
  5. Run ./scripts/install-agent-hosts.sh once per clone so .githooks/pre-commit is active.
  6. Run ./project/governance-check.sh before claiming done.

The pre-commit hook rejects commits that are not bound to an IN_PROGRESS ticket. Do not invent ticket numbers. Do not ask the human to approve a merge; invoke validator-agent when publication needs trusted approval.

Changes

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.
