ci-cd

ci-cd is a cursor rule for Cursor from girijashankarj/cursor-handbook. It costs 516 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for automated build and deployment pipelines. CI/CD means automatically checking code and then preparing or releasing it through defined stages.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps define linting, type checks, tests, builds, security scans, branch rules, and deployment steps.
Why use it?
It makes delivery checks repeatable and prevents unverified code from being deployed directly to production.

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

ci-cd 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.

CI/CD Rules

Pipeline Stages

1. Lint & Format Check  →  2. Type Check  →  3. Unit Tests  →  4. Build  →  5. Integration Tests  →  6. Security Scan  →  7. Deploy

Stage Details

Stage Tool Fail Condition
Lint {{CONFIG.techStack.linter}} Any errors
Type Check {{CONFIG.testing.typeCheckCommand}} Any type errors
Unit Tests {{CONFIG.testing.testCommand}} <{{CONFIG.testing.coverageMinimum}}% coverage or failures
Build Package manager build Build failure
Integration Integration test suite Any failures
Security npm audit / Snyk / Trivy Critical vulnerabilities
Deploy CD tool Deployment failure

Branch Strategy

  • main — production-ready code
  • develop — integration branch
  • {{CONFIG.conventions.branchPrefix.feature}}* — new features
  • {{CONFIG.conventions.branchPrefix.bugfix}}* — bug fixes
  • {{CONFIG.conventions.branchPrefix.hotfix}}* — production hotfixes
  • {{CONFIG.conventions.branchPrefix.release}}* — release preparation

Deployment Rules

  • NEVER deploy directly to production without CI passing
  • Use blue/green or canary deployments for zero downtime
  • Automated rollback on health check failure
  • Database migrations run before code deployment
  • Feature flags for gradual rollouts
  • Smoke tests after every deployment

Commit Convention ({{CONFIG.conventions.commitFormat}})

<type>(<scope>): <description>

Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore, perf, ci
Scope: module or feature name
Description: imperative mood, lowercase, no period

Examples:
  feat(orders): add order cancellation endpoint
  fix(auth): handle expired refresh tokens
  test(payments): add integration tests for refund flow

Docker

  • Multi-stage builds for minimal image size
  • Non-root user in production containers
  • Pin base image versions (no latest tag)
  • Use .dockerignore to exclude unnecessary files
  • Health check endpoint in every service
  • Scan images for vulnerabilities before deployment

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.
