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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00120 | $0.00120 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00060 | $0.00060 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00024 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00012 |
Grade A, and why
style-standards 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 9d 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
description: style and formatting rules alwaysApply: false
- Prefer line length max of 120 characters in code modules, except for tests or when to do so would require use of temporary variables.
- Except clauses shall be prefixed with a blank line.
- Prefer separating logical blocks of code with a blank line for visual clarity.
- For Python, for any line continuations, use parentheses only.
- For Python, use ruff for code style, linting, and formatting.
- Avoid magic strings and magic numbers, instead prefer class level constants, otherwise use module/function level constants.
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.

style-standards is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository jim-schilling/splurge-ai-rules (3 stars, last pushed 11mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 120 tokens to every session, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
