typing

typing is a cursor rule for Cursor from Edison-Watch/Custom-MCPs. It costs 115 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Python typing rule for using built-in collection types such as list and tuple directly in type annotations in Python 3.9 and later.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when annotating lists, tuples, and similar collection types in Python code.
Why use it?
It avoids unnecessary imports and prevents the invalid use of list or tuple from the typing module.

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

typing 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

In Python 3.9 and later (which we're on), built-in collection types like list and tuple support direct type annotations. Therefore, instead of importing List and Tuple from the typing module, you can annotate types directly using the built-in types with bracket notation. For example, instead of writing from typing import List, Tuple, you can now write: list and tuple

DO NOT try to do

from typing import list

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.
