002-security

002-security is a cursor rule for Cursor from obviousworks/vibe-coding-ai-rules. It costs 253 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of security rules for reviewing and writing AI-generated code across a project. It covers input validation, protection against code and database injection, authentication, secrets, APIs, and browser security.

In plain words
What is it for?
Guide code reviews and implementation of validation, safe database queries, secure file uploads, protected credentials, JWT checks, rate limits, CORS settings, and security headers.
Why use it?
It reduces common security mistakes, such as trusting client data, exposing credentials, building unsafe SQL, or passing user input to shell commands.

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

002-security 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 1mo 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

Security Rules

Core Principles

  • All AI-generated code requires human security review
  • Trust nothing, verify everything
  • Defense in depth: multiple security layers
  • Principle of least privilege

Input Validation (MANDATORY)

  • Validate ALL user input with schema validation (Zod, Pydantic, etc.)
  • Never trust client-side data
  • Sanitize HTML content before rendering
  • Validate file uploads: MIME type, extension, max size

Injection Prevention

  • NEVER concatenate SQL strings — use parameterized queries
  • NEVER pass user input to shell commands
  • NEVER use dangerouslySetInnerHTML without DOMPurify
  • NEVER use eval() or Function() with user input

Authentication & Secrets

  • Never store secrets in source code or client-side code
  • Use environment variables for all credentials
  • Implement proper JWT validation with algorithm pinning
  • Use httpOnly, secure, sameSite cookies

API Security

  • Rate limiting on all endpoints
  • CORS configuration: explicit origins only
  • Input size limits on all endpoints
  • Proper HTTP security headers (CSP, HSTS, etc.)

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.
