A set of programming rules for NotePlan plugins. It defines constraints such as using static imports and explains NotePlan-specific task priority markers and coding conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or reviewing NotePlan plugin code, choosing imports, handling task priorities, checking API types, and following the project’s Flow, formatting, and style rules.
Why use it?
It prevents implementation choices that the project’s build system or NotePlan’s API does not support. It also keeps user-facing priority handling consistent with NotePlan’s actual symbols.

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

np-programming-general 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 21d 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

Programming conventions

Follow agents/docs/programming.md. Hub: AGENTS.md.

  • Static import only -- no require, no dynamic imports (Rollup)
  • Do not commit or push until the user asks
  • Prefer npx flow; fix Flow errors before finishing new code. Save flow check as indented JSON at /tmp/flow-check-now.json
  • Run tests yourself when relevant (jest ... --no-watch); never hard-code Jest workarounds

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.
