meta-choice-surface

meta-choice-surface is a cursor rule for Cursor from KimYx0207/Meta_Kim. It costs 520 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A decision-handling rule for Cursor, a code editor with an AI assistant. It shows a short set of choices in chat when a user's decision would change the work's route, scope, risk, permissions, or stopping conditions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to gate work that depends on a user decision and record that decision in the conversation.
Why use it?
It prevents the agent from making an important choice silently. The agent pauses until the user explicitly selects an option.

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

meta-choice-surface 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 55 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Meta_Kim Choice Surface (Cursor)

When meta-theory is active in Cursor and a user decision would change route, scope, risk, acceptance, owner, permission, or non-goal, use this stable choice-surface route:

  1. Finish Critical/Fetch/Thinking evidence first when the decision is not a Critical blocker.
  2. Render a short localized chat decision card with 2-4 meaningful options and one recommended default.
  3. Stop and wait for the user's explicit reply before Execution.
  4. Record the choice surface as conversation_fallback unless a real Cursor-native question surface is exposed in the active host.

Do not call this a popup. Do not claim Cursor displayed a native modal. Cursor preToolUse hooks are for hard tool-call governance, and beforeSubmitPrompt hooks are for prompt-time adapters; neither is a verified arbitrary multi-option question UI for Meta_Kim.

Stable Cursor trigger

  • alwaysApply: true loads this rule on every Cursor prompt.
  • .cursor/hooks.json registers preToolUse with failClosed: true for mechanical execution gating.
  • .cursor/hooks.json may register beforeSubmitPrompt adapters for memory or prompt enhancement, but Meta_Kim must not depend on that event as the only user-choice surface.

Decision Card Shape

Use the user's language. Keep the card compact:

  • AI understanding: one sentence.
  • Recommended option: label it clearly.
  • Options: 2-4 options, each with the trade-off.
  • Wait state: ask the user to choose before continuing.

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.
