nodebench

nodebench is a cursor rule for Windsurf from HomenShum/NodeBenchAI. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,907 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of development rules for a web application, covering code reuse, file organisation, documentation checks, and the usual path from a request to a shipped change. It also separates frontend React code from backend Convex code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Guide implementation work by finding reusable components, keeping related files together, verifying documentation and APIs, and following the project's development cycle.
Why use it?
It gives an agent or developer consistent instructions for fitting changes into an existing codebase. The rules reduce unnecessary duplicate components and encourage checking library APIs before implementation.

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

nodebench 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.

Implementation Guidelines

1. Code Reuse & Existing Components

  • MANDATORY: Before creating any new component, search the codebase for existing similar components and reuse them
  • Leverage existing patterns:

2. Architecture & File Organization

  • Follow the existing hierarchical domain-organized structure:
    src/features/editor/          # Editor-specific features
      ├── components/             # React components
      ├── hooks/                  # Custom hooks
      └── utils/                  # Utility functions
    
    src/features/agents/          # Agent-specific features
      └── components/FastAgentPanel/  # Fast Agent UI components
    
    convex/domains/               # Backend domain logic
      ├── documents/              # Document operations
      └── agents/                 # Agent operations
    
  • Group related functionality together (hooks with hooks, components with components)
  • Keep backend (Convex) and frontend (React) clearly separated

3. Documentation & API Verification

  • BEFORE implementing any library/framework feature:
    1. Use Context7 MCP to fetch the latest official documentation
    2. Verify API signatures, parameter types, and return values
    3. Check for version-specific changes or deprecations
  • For external integrations (Convex Agent, BlockNote, TipTap, RTVI):
    1. Use web search to find latest best practices
    2. Cross-reference with existing usage in the codebase
    3. Ensure compatibility with current versions in package.json

4. The Standard Development Cycle (Request → Ship)

Follow this exact loop for every task to ensure stability and transparency:

A. Analyze & Plan (Request)

  • Search First: Use grep or file reads to locate relevant files before coding.
  • Context Check: Identify if the change affects multiple views (e.g., Does this Sidebar change affect both Research and Workspace modes?).

B. Implement

  • Write the code following the Architecture and Reuse rules above.
  • Apply changes iteratively (e.g., create the component → export it → integrate it).

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.
