info-disclosure

info-disclosure is a cursor rule for Cursor from davidmatousek/tachi. It costs 46 tokens per session (1,571 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A security rule for finding ways sensitive information could reach people or systems that should not see it. It covers data leaks, verbose errors, exposed logs, side channels, and weak protection of stored or transmitted data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review processes, data stores, data flows, error responses, logs, debug endpoints, and access controls.
Why use it?
It helps identify confidentiality failures that could reveal credentials, personal data, internal details, or other information useful in later attacks.

Cursor rule for Cursor

Written for Cursor: a Cursor rule (.mdc).

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is output_schema: ../../../schemas/finding.yaml.

Good fit Use it to review processes, data stores, data flows, error responses, logs, debug endpoints, and access controls.

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

info-disclosure 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 4d 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.

Information Disclosure Threat Agent

Purpose

Detects threats where sensitive information is exposed to unauthorized parties — whether through direct data leaks, verbose error messages, side-channel observations, or insufficient access controls on stored data. Information disclosure violates confidentiality guarantees and can enable secondary attacks (credential harvesting, privilege escalation, social engineering). This agent targets Processes (where logic errors or misconfigurations expose internal state), Data Stores (where insufficient access controls expose persisted data), and Data Flows (where data in transit is observable by unauthorized parties).

Detection Scope

Targeted DFD Element Types

  • Process: API endpoints, error handlers, search services, reporting engines, debug interfaces, health check endpoints
  • Data Store: Databases, file storage, caches, session stores, backup systems, log aggregators
  • Data Flow: API responses, inter-service messages, file transfers, email notifications, webhook payloads

Patterns and Indicators

Error Message Exposure

  • Stack traces returned in API error responses (production environments)
  • Database error messages revealing table names, column names, or query structure
  • Framework version information in error pages or server headers
  • File path disclosure in error messages exposing server directory structure
  • Detailed validation errors revealing business rule internals

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.
