cursorrules

Repository rules for using GraphPilot, a code-structure graph available through a remote tool, when answering questions about JavaScript or TypeScript symbols and dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to find definitions, callers, callees, dependencies, interfaces, and the likely effects of renaming or changing code.
Why use it?
They direct the agent to use structural information for call and impact questions instead of relying only on text searches.

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

cursorrules 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

GraphPilot routing rules for Cursor

This repo has a GraphPilot structural code-graph available via MCP. Use it before grep on structural questions.

When the user asks any of:

  • "who calls X" / "what uses X" / "where is X called from"
  • "what does X call" / "what does X depend on"
  • "rename X — what breaks" / "impact of changing X" / "what depends on X"
  • "find function X" / "where is X defined" / "list all interfaces"

Use the graphpilot MCP tools BEFORE grep or reading files.

Question kind Tool to call
Define / locate symbol gp_recall({ query, substring?, path? })
Callers / callees gp_callers({ symbol, direction, path? })
Blast radius / rename gp_impact({ symbol, depth?, path? })
PR-scoped blast radius gp_impact({ symbol, since: 'main', path? })
Index health probe gp_stats({ path? })
Refresh after edits gp_index({ path? })

When NOT to use GraphPilot

Fall back to grep / read for:

  • Comments, JSDoc, string literals, error messages
  • Config files (package.json, tsconfig.json, .env)
  • Markdown / docs
  • Languages other than TypeScript / JavaScript
  • Git history (blame, log)

After heavy editing

After ~10+ file edits, call gp_index once before further structural questions, or run graphpilot watch in a side terminal for sub-10 ms incremental updates.

Citing evidence

Every GraphPilot response carries file:line @ sha anchors. When citing results to the user, include the anchor verbatim — it's verifiable: the user can jump to that line and the code will match.

Changes

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.
