logging-and-errors

logging-and-errors is a cursor rule for Cursor from evtapps/ditto-mcp. It costs 10 tokens per session (189 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of project rules for logging, hiding sensitive values, and handling errors safely. It specifies how messages and failures should be recorded in a TypeScript MCP server.

In plain words
What is it for?
It guides secure logging, secret redaction, typed HTTP errors, safe conversion of unknown errors, and concise tool-handler failure responses.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance that access tokens, passwords, or unsafe error details appear in logs or responses, while keeping expected failures understandable.

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

logging-and-errors 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

Logging & Error Handling

  • Always log via the logger in src/utils/logger.ts; it redacts Bearer and Basic auth tokens and common secret patterns.
  • Keep logs concise; prefer single-line entries with structured JSON only when necessary.
  • Do not log secrets or raw Ditto responses containing auth headers.
  • Process handlers must not assume Error; convert unknown to string safely (errorToString in src/index.ts).
  • Tool handlers return errors instead of throwing for expected cases (policy violations, missing config).
  • HTTP client converts failures to Ditto-like envelopes to reduce branching in handlers.
  • Prefer typed errors for HTTP failures (see HttpStatusError in src/ditto/client.ts).

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.
