spring-boot-gitignore

spring-boot-gitignore is a cursor rule for Cursor from lsampaioweb/ai-instructions. It costs 0 tokens per session (399 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for a .gitignore file, which tells Git which files should not be tracked in a repository. It covers build output, editor files, operating-system files, logs, secrets, certificates, and local settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating or reviewing the repository's root .gitignore file for a Spring Boot project, especially before committing or publishing code.
Why use it?
It reduces accidental commits of generated files, private credentials, machine-specific settings, and logs. This keeps the source repository smaller and safer to share.

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

spring-boot-gitignore 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.

What it actually says

Spring Boot .gitignore Engine

Rules

  • Every Spring Boot project must have a .gitignore at the repository root.
  • Group exclusion rules by category with a # comment header above each group.
  • Exclude target/ for Maven build output.
  • Exclude Maven Release plugin artifacts: release.properties, pom.xml.releaseBackup.
  • Exclude IntelliJ IDEA artifacts: .idea/, *.iml, *.iws, *.ipr.
  • Exclude Eclipse and STS artifacts: .project, .classpath, .factorypath, .settings/, .apt_generated, .sts4-cache.
  • Exclude .vscode/ for VS Code workspace artifacts.
  • Allow .vscode/extensions.json and .vscode/settings.json as tracked exceptions using ! negation patterns.
  • Exclude OS artifacts: .DS_Store, Thumbs.db.
  • Exclude secrets and local overrides: *.env, .env, application-local.yml, application-local.properties.
  • Exclude TLS credential files: *.p12, *.crt, *.key, *.pfx.
  • Exclude log output directories and files: logs/, *.log, *.gz.
  • Exclude JVM crash log files: hs_err_pid*.

Safety Guards

  • Never commit application-local.* files; they are runtime-only overrides containing environment-specific secrets.
  • Never commit TLS credential files to source control.
  • Never use glob patterns (target/*) where directory patterns (target/) are more precise and cover nested paths.
  • Never exclude the .mvn/ directory when it contains the Maven wrapper; the wrapper is intentionally tracked.

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.
