changelog.rules

changelog.rules is a cursor rule for Cursor from drumnation/unsplash-smart-mcp-server. It costs 907 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for maintaining changelog files, which record notable changes between software releases. It uses Keep a Changelog categories and Semantic Versioning, a standard format for release numbers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding release notes, documenting features or fixes, recording security changes, and maintaining the changelog for each package.
Why use it?
It keeps release history consistent and makes it easier to see what changed, what was fixed, and which updates may affect users. Each package in the monorepo, a repository containing multiple packages, keeps its own changelog.

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

changelog.rules 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 8d 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.

Workflow Rules

Adding New Changes

  1. ✅ ALWAYS add changes to the [Unreleased] section first
  2. ✅ ALWAYS include a concise description of the change
  3. ✅ ALWAYS categorize changes correctly
  4. ⛔ NEVER add the same change multiple times
  5. ✅ ALWAYS maintain chronological order within each category (newest at top)

Release Process

  1. ✅ ALWAYS get the current date using terminal command: date +'%Y-%m-%d'
  2. ✅ ALWAYS move [Unreleased] content to a new version section with the date
  3. ✅ ALWAYS create an empty [Unreleased] section after a release
  4. ✅ ALWAYS include links to compare versions (at bottom of file)
  5. ✅ ALWAYS update the version in package.json to match the new release version

Version Management

Package.json Synchronization

  1. ✅ ALWAYS update package.json version when creating a new release
  2. ✅ ALWAYS ensure package.json version and CHANGELOG.md version match exactly
  3. ⛔ NEVER have mismatched versions between package.json and CHANGELOG.md
  4. ✅ ALWAYS update both files in the same commit

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.
