calibremcp: Cursor rule for Cursor

.cursorrules

cursorrules is a cursor rule for Cursor from sandraschi/calibremcp. It costs 590 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository rule that requires reading a shared documentation repository before making changes. It directs the agent to follow documentation branches, find existing patterns, and avoid duplicate material.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in repositories that depend on central docs, especially before changing code, creating documentation, selecting patterns, or adding reusable templates.
Why use it?
It helps development work follow the team’s established documentation and prevents new work from conflicting with or repeating existing guidance.

Cursor rule for Cursor

Written for Cursor: installed under .cursor/.

This is sandraschi/calibremcp's own configuration. It tells Cursor how to work on calibremcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything calibremcp configures →

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 11d 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.

Central Documentation Rules

Rule #1: Read Central Docs First

BEFORE making any changes or starting work, ALWAYS:

  1. Read the Central Documentation README:

    • Location: D:\Dev\repos\mcp-central-docs\README.md
    • This shows all important documentation "branches" (folder trees)
    • Navigate from there to find specific information
  2. Follow Documentation Branches:

    • Central docs are organized by topic (Anthropic ecosystem, Google ecosystem, patterns, projects, etc.)
    • Each branch has its own README explaining what's inside
    • Use the branch structure to find relevant docs
  3. Check for Existing Patterns:

    • Look in docs/patterns/ for design patterns
    • Check templates/ for reusable templates
    • Review docs/projects/ for similar project examples
  4. Avoid Duplication:

    • Search existing docs before creating new ones
    • Update existing docs rather than creating duplicates
    • Reference central docs instead of copying content

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.
