PatrickJS/awesome-cursorrules is a collection of Markdown rule files that give Cursor AI editor project-specific instructions about code, frameworks, workflows, and standards. Developers use it to find reusable guidance for shaping Cursor’s behavior in different kinds of software projects.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00711 | $0.00711 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00284 | $0.00284 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00142 | $0.00142 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00071 | $0.00071 |
Grade A, and why
nativescript 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.

NativeScript Best Practices
Code Style and Structure
- Organize code using modular components and services for maintainability.
- Use platform-specific files (
.ios.ts,.android.ts) when code exceeds 20 platform-specific lines. - When creating custom native code, use a folder structure like
custom-native/index.ios.ts,custom-native/index.android.ts,custom-native/common.ts,custom-native/index.d.tsto keep platform-specific code organized and easy to import with single import elsewhere, replacingcustom-nativewith the name of the custom code.
Naming Conventions
- Prefix platform-specific variables with
iosorandroid(e.g.,iosButtonStyle). - Name custom components and styles descriptively (
primaryButtonStyle,userProfileView).
Usage
- Use
@NativeClass()when extending native classes when needed - For iOS, when extending native classes, always use
static ObjCProtocols = [AnyUIKitDelegate];to declare custom delegates if a delegate is required or used. - For iOS, always retain custom delegate instances to prevent garbage collection. For example,
let delegate = MyCustomDelegate.new() as MyCustomDelegate, and ensure it is retained in the class scope. - Favor
__ANDROID__and__APPLE__for conditional platform code with tree-shaking. - Track and clean up all timers (
setTimeout,setInterval) to avoid memory leaks.
UI and Styling
- Always TailwindCSS as the CSS Framework using
"@nativescript/tailwind": "^2.1.0"for consistent styling paired with"tailwindcss": "~3.4.0". - Add ios: and android: style variants for platform-specific styling, addVariant('android', '.ns-android &'), addVariant('ios', '.ns-ios &');
- darkMode: ['class', '.ns-dark']
- Leverage
GridLayoutorStackLayoutfor flexible, responsive layouts. Place more emphasis on proper GridLayout usage for complex layouts but use StackLayout for simpler, linear arrangements. - Use
visibility: 'hidden'for elements that should not affect layout when hidden.
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.

nativescript is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository PatrickJS/awesome-cursorrules (40,971 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed CC0-1.0. It adds 711 tokens to every session, about $0.0028 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
