product_design_dogfood

product_design_dogfood is a cursor rule for Cursor from HomenShum/NodeBenchAI. It costs 0 tokens per session (346 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A user-interface review rule set that defines completion by checking the running application, not only the code changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing changed screens, maintaining a /dogfood review route, checking shared layouts, and publishing current screenshots that demonstrate the UI works.
Why use it?
It prevents UI work from being considered finished when the result has not been tested or viewed in the app. It also sets checks for clarity, layout, states, accessibility, and interactions.

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

product_design_dogfood 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 5d 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

Product Design Dogfood (Jony Ive Review)

Ship quality is proven in the running UI, not in a diff.

Definition of done (UI-visible)

When you claim a UI change is “done”, it must be verifiable inside the app UI:

  1. Dogfood route exists: /dogfood loads.
  2. Evidence is viewable: /dogfood shows a gallery or clear “missing artifacts” instructions.
  3. Screenshots are current: after dogfooding, publish the screenshot manifest so the UI can render it (npm run dogfood:publish or npm run dogfood:full:local).

Dogfood protocol (route-by-route)

For every route/screen touched (and adjacent screens with shared layout):

  • First-impression clarity: can a new user explain what to do in 5 seconds?
  • Hierarchy: one primary action; secondary actions are visually quiet.
  • Typography: headings are not shouting; body text is readable; no gray-on-black mush.
  • Spacing: consistent rhythm; avoid random padding/margins; align baselines.
  • States: empty/loading/error states look intentional (not a blank white card).
  • Interactions: focus rings, keyboard navigation, hover/press states, scroll containment.

Mandatory mindset

Follow analyst_diagnostic:

  • Diagnose the root cause (render path, data ownership, stored vs computed).
  • Fix the cause so the bug becomes impossible, not merely hidden.

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.
