billing

billing is a cursor rule for Cursor from nikandr-surkov/ai-saas-starter. It costs 0 tokens per session (232 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Project rules for a billing system that handles credits and Stripe subscriptions. They define how credit changes, subscription data, transaction records, and payment webhooks must be written and checked.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when implementing credit purchases and spending, syncing Stripe subscriptions, processing webhooks, recording corrections, and testing subscription changes with Stripe test clocks.
Why use it?
They prevent duplicate credit changes, incorrect balances, tampered payment notifications, and edits that would undermine the transaction history. They also keep Stripe as the source for current subscription state.

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

billing 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

  • Every credit mutation carries an idempotencyKey. Unique-violation on it means "already processed" — return the existing row silently.
  • syncStripeDataToDb(customerId) in src/lib/billing/sync.ts is the ONLY code that writes subscription state. It fetches fresh from Stripe; event payloads are triggers, not sources of truth.
  • The ledger is append-only: no UPDATE/DELETE on credit_transactions. Corrections are new compensating rows.
  • Spends: single conditional UPDATE (credit_balance >= amount in WHERE) in the same transaction as the ledger insert. No check-then-write.
  • Webhook: verify the Stripe signature on the RAW body (request.text()) before anything else. 200 fast; 500 on real failures so Stripe retries.
  • Test subscription lifecycles with Stripe test clocks.
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.
