040-discovery

040-discovery is a cursor rule for Cursor from Kanevry/session-orchestrator. It costs 18 tokens per session (2,437 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A rule for systematic quality analysis and issue detection in a software project. It adapts checks to the project’s technology stack and can examine code, infrastructure, user interface, architecture, sessions, audits, stored project information, or features.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with a chosen scope to detect quality problems, filter findings by severity and confidence, and create issues for confirmed problems.
Why use it?
It turns scattered potential problems into findings that can be reviewed interactively before confirmed issues become tracked version-control issues.

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

040-discovery 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 3d 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.

Discovery — Quality Analysis & Issue Detection

Systematic quality discovery that runs modular probes adapted to the project's tech stack, presents findings interactively, and creates VCS issues for confirmed problems.

Invocation

  • Standalone (/discovery [scope]): Full flow with interactive triage (Phases 0-5 + Phase 6 stats)
  • Embedded (from session-end when discovery-on-close: true): Phases 0-3 only, returns structured JSON to caller

Scope accepts: all (default), code, infra, ui, arch, session, audit, vault, feature, or comma-separated like code,session.

Phase 0: Read Session Config

Read Session Config from CLAUDE.md. Parse discovery-specific fields:

  • discovery-probes, discovery-exclude-paths, discovery-severity-threshold, discovery-confidence-threshold, discovery-on-close

Phase 1: Stack Detection

Detect the project's tech stack via marker file checks (Glob):

Marker File(s) Activates
package.json JS/TS probes
tsconfig.json TypeScript probes
requirements.txt / pyproject.toml Python probes
Dockerfile / docker-compose.yml Container probes
.github/workflows/ GitHub CI probes
.gitlab-ci.yml GitLab CI probes
next.config.* / nuxt.config.* SSR probes
tailwind.config.* Tailwind probes
.orchestrator/ exists Session probes

Build activation set: start with marker-matched probes → intersect discovery-probes config (if set) → restrict to scope argument (if passed).

Default exclude paths (always apply): node_modules/, .git/, dist/, build/, .next/, .nuxt/, coverage/. Add paths from discovery-exclude-paths.

Report: "Discovery: [N] probes active across [categories]. Stack: [detected]. Threshold: [severity]."

Phase 2: Probe Execution

Run probes sequentially — Cursor has no parallel agents. One category at a time. Complete each category's analysis before moving to the next.

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.

040-discovery is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository Kanevry/session-orchestrator (49 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 2,437 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
