design-doc-fields

design-doc-fields is a cursor rule for Cursor from cpuguy96/StepCOVNet. It costs 0 tokens per session (206 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Documentation rules for design and plan files that describe data structures, JSON artifacts, manifests, or configuration settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when writing design documents, especially for recording schema versions, field rationales, validation rules, and links between related decisions.
Why use it?
They make each field's meaning, schema changes, decisions, and deferred work easier to understand and maintain.

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

design-doc-fields 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 3d 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

Design doc fields

When creating or updating plan / design docs under docs/ that define dataclasses, JSON artifacts, manifests, or config surfaces:

  1. schema_version on every JSON artifact + version changelog (what v1 is, what triggers v2+).
  2. Field rationale table per object: Field | Meaning | Decision (§/ID) | Why / notes.
  3. Deferred fields listed explicitly with link to open-items section.
  4. Cross-links between resolved-decisions §, field tables, and integration docs.

Also document when decided: CLI flag defaults, enum/status meanings, validation gates (pack vs chart vs warning).

Reference shape: DATASET_PREP_PIPELINE.md §6.3.

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.
