deduplication

deduplication is a cursor rule for Cursor from getsentry/sentry-java. It costs 6 tokens per session (124 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Java SDK mechanism that detects and drops repeated copies of the same error event. Repeats can come from several integrations or from both automatic and manual error capture.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on duplicate event detection or investigating why repeated exception captures are being discarded.
Why use it?
It reduces duplicate error reports so the same failure is not sent multiple times. Deduplication is enabled by default but can be turned off.

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

deduplication 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

Java SDK Event deduplication

To avoid sending the same error multiple times, there is deduplication logic in place in the SDK. Duplicate captures can happen due to multiple integrations capturing the exception as well as additional manual calls to Sentry.captureException.

Deduplication is performed in DuplicateEventDetectionEventProcessor which returns null when it detects a duplicate event causing it to be dropped.

The enableDeduplication option can be used to opt out of deduplication. It is enabled by default.

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.
