050-anti-hallucination

050-anti-hallucination is a cursor rule for Cursor from n0rvyn/cursor-rules. It costs 344 tokens per session, scanned A, original, no licence file.

A set of ten strict rules intended to reduce made-up or unsupported answers from an AI coding agent. Hallucination means presenting invented information as if it were true.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for setting guardrails around the agent's answers and development work.
Why use it?
It adds checks intended to make the agent less likely to guess, invent details, or state uncertain information as fact.

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

050-anti-hallucination 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 6d 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 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.
