naming_conventions

A set of file-naming rules for common web-project files. It defines formats such as PascalCase for React components, kebab-case for utilities and routes, snake_case for dynamic route segments, and lowercase for special files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check or enforce names for React components, pages, routes, utility files, configuration files, and Markdown documentation.
Why use it?
Consistent names make files easier to find and help projects follow the conventions expected by their frameworks and tools.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

naming_conventions 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 yesterday.

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

  1. React Component Files (.tsx):
     - Use PascalCase (e.g., Button.tsx, UserProfile.tsx)
  
  2. Pages and Routes:
     - Use kebab-case for page files (e.g., about-us.tsx)
     - Use snake_case for dynamic route segments (e.g., [product_id].tsx)
     - Use lowercase for special files (page.tsx, layout.tsx, loading.tsx)
  
  3. Utility & Config Files (.js, .ts):
     - Use kebab-case (e.g., api-helpers.ts, date-utils.ts)
  
  4. Documentation files (.md):
     - Use kebab-case (e.g., getting-started.md)

examples:

  • input: "src/components/Button.tsx" output: "Valid: PascalCase for component files"
  • input: "src/utils/date-helpers.ts" output: "Valid: kebab-case for utility files"
  • input: "src/app/about-us/page.tsx" output: "Valid: kebab-case for routes, lowercase for special files" metadata: priority: medium version: 1.1

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.
