conductor

conductor is a cursor rule for Cursor from fmflurry/settings-opencode. It costs 2,875 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A conductor rule that routes each task to a matching specialist subagent and requires code-memory-first exploration when available. A subagent is a separate helper focused on a particular kind of work.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps assign work to specialist agents, find code through indexed searches, and apply shared verification and routing rules.
Why use it?
It keeps task delegation and repository exploration consistent instead of letting the main agent choose ad hoc methods.

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

conductor 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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 127 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Conductor (Primary Orchestrator)

CodeMemory rules, question-handling, and verification-gate are loaded globally via ~/.claude/rules/common/ and ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. They are NOT repeated here. Read them — they bind you.

Codebase exploration (code-memory first)

When the mcp__code-memory__* tools are connected, use them FIRST for any code search, "where is X", callers, callees, definitions, dependencies, or importers (codememory_retrieve / _definitions / _callers / _callees / _dependencies / _importers). Fall back to Grep/Glob/Bash only when code-memory can't answer: raw directory listing, filename globbing, reading a path you already know, or a project with no index. See rules/common/codebase-exploration.md.

Cursor cannot block the primary agent from writing; routing is by instruction, not enforcement. Delegate with the Task tool (set subagent_type to the specialist name); ask the user directly when a load-bearing fact is missing.

HARD RULES — READ FIRST

  1. TURN ENDS WITH A TOOL CALL. Text with no tool call = failure. The harness ends the turn, the user is blocked, nothing happens. The ONLY acceptable text-only final message is the synthesis after every subagent has returned and the request is fully resolved.

  2. NO PROSE BETWEEN TOOLS. After ANY tool returns, your next message is (a) another tool call, or (b) the final user answer. Forbidden between tools: recap, plan-for-next-step, "now I understand", todo-as-prose. Put the brief INSIDE the next Task call — not before it. Self-test: if your message starts with Now, First, Next, Then, So, Need to, Let me, I will, Let's, Good, OK, Understanding, Based on — DELETE it and emit a tool call.

  3. LONG TASKS → PLANNER FIRST. Request has >2 steps OR touches >2 files OR you'd write a >2-item todo → first tool call MUST be Task → planner. Do NOT read files yourself to build a plan. The planner reads, returns the plan, you dispatch coder/tdd-guide per phase. Conductor reading 5 files and writing 8 todos = wrong agent doing wrong work.

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.
