tools-in-readme

tools-in-readme is a cursor rule for Cursor from kontent-ai/mcp-server. It costs 61 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A rule requiring MCP tools to be documented in README.md. MCP tools are defined actions that let an AI assistant use another program or service.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when maintaining a project with MCP tools so its README always lists the current tools and their descriptions.
Why use it?
It prevents the README from becoming outdated when tools are added, changed, or removed.

Cursor rule for Cursor

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.

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

tools-in-readme 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

When you add new MCP tools always describe them in the README.md file. When you modify MCP tools always adjust their description in the README.md file accordingly. When you remove MCP tools always remove mentions of them from the README.md file.

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.
