DockSec: Cursor rule for Cursor

.cursorrules

cursorrules is a cursor rule for Cursor from OWASP/DockSec. It costs 112 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Rules for an AI-powered Docker security scanner that explains security weaknesses in plain English. Docker is a system for packaging and running applications in containers, and OWASP is a group that publishes web-security guidance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or reviewing Docker security-scanner code and its related documentation, comments, and Git commit messages.
Why use it?
It keeps the scanner's code, comments, documentation, and commit messages focused on the product instead of mentioning AI tools or adding unwanted attribution.

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

cursorrules 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

DockSec Cursor Rules

  • STRICT: NEVER use "Cursor Agent", "AI Coding Assistant", or any AI-specific branding in code, comments, documentation, or commit messages.
  • STRICT: NEVER add "Co-authored-by: Cursor" or any AI attribution to git commit messages. This is a hard requirement for project integrity.
  • All code and comments must be professional, human-centric, and focused strictly on project functionality.
  • Do not use em-dashes; use normal hyphens only.
  • Do not use emojis in any communication or code.

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.
