checkpoint

checkpoint is a cursor rule for Cursor from Jkudjo/oh-my-cursor. It costs 13 tokens per session (224 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A session handoff record that stores what was completed, what should happen next, and any blockers. A blocker is an unresolved problem that prevents progress.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the end of a work session or midway through a task to save progress, plans, decisions, file names, and unresolved issues.
Why use it?
It prevents work from being lost when a coding session ends or changes hands. Specific next steps let a new session resume without relying on memory.

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

checkpoint 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.

What it actually says

@checkpoint

Trigger: At the end of a working session, or when you want to save progress mid-session.

Protocol

  1. Summarize what was accomplished in this session (specific, not vague).
  2. Write exact next steps — specific enough that a fresh session can resume without context.
  3. Note any blockers or unresolved decisions.
  4. Call save_checkpoint with summary, next_steps, blockers.
  5. Also call save_artifact type=logs, slug=session-{date}, with a full session log.

Output

Checkpoint saved.

Summary: {what was done}
Next session: {exact next steps}
Blockers: {any blockers, or "none"}

Rules

  • Be specific in next_steps — "implement step 3 of plan-XXXXX" not "continue the plan"
  • Reference plan IDs, task IDs, and file names in next_steps so the next session can resume precisely
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.
