In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check plugin structure, component declarations, metadata, documentation, and validation results.
Why use it?
It catches invalid manifests, broken file references, unsafe paths, missing metadata, and validation problems before a plugin is committed.

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

pn-plugin-quality-gates 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 6d 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

Plugin quality gates

When creating or editing Cursor plugins:

  1. Ensure .cursor-plugin/plugin.json exists and includes a valid name.
  2. Keep paths relative and within the plugin directory (no absolute paths, no .. traversal).
  3. Match declared component paths to real files and folders.
  4. Include YAML frontmatter for rules, skills, agents, and commands with required metadata.
  5. Keep plugin scope focused and document installation and usage in README.md.
  6. Run npm run validate from the repo root to confirm all validators pass before committing.

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.
