sync-workflow

sync-workflow is a cursor rule for Cursor from SecondLifes/code-intel. It costs 1,542 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of sync-workflow, Apache-2.0.

A rule for keeping AI assistant configuration synchronized across five coding tools. It defines the canonical source files and explains which Claude Code and Cursor files are generated copies or links.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before editing project rules, slash commands, or skills, especially when changes must reach Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, GitHub Copilot, or Gemini.
Why use it?
It prevents conflicting hand edits and makes clear where rules, commands, and skills should be changed so every supported tool stays aligned.

Written for Cursor: installed under .cursor/. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

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.

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

sync-workflow 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.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to sync-workflow — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

AI Config Source of Truth & Sync Workflow

This repo supports five AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, GitHub Copilot, Gemini/Antigravity CLI). To avoid maintaining near-duplicate copies by hand, most content has a single canonical source under .agents/.

Where content actually lives

Content Canonical source Generated / native copies
Rules (per-topic, glob-scoped) .agents/rules/*.md .claude/rules/*.md and .cursor/rules/*.mdc — generated, do not hand-edit. Note the extension: Cursor recognizes only .mdc under .cursor/rules and silently ignores .md there (cursor.com/docs/rules).
Slash commands .agents/commands/*.md .claude/commands/*.md — generated, do not hand-edit
Skills .agents/skills/*/SKILL.md content is never copied, but Claude Code needs an entry point: a generated junction/symlink per skill at .claude/skills/<skill-name> → .agents/skills/<skill-name>. Claude Code additionally gets a generated thin wrapper at .claude/commands/<skill-name>.md so the skill is also invocable as an explicit /<skill-name> command — see below.
Root universal summary AGENTS.md none — hand-authored, references .agents/rules for detail
Gemini/Antigravity summary .gemini/rules/project-rules.md none — hand-authored, same role as AGENTS.md but Gemini-specific
Copilot pre-prompt .github/copilot-instructions.md none — hand-authored, references AGENTS.md
Kiro steering docs .kiro/steering/*.md none — different concept (living project context, not per-topic rules), intentionally out of this sync scheme

Mandatory workflow

Whenever you add, edit or delete a file under .agents/rules/ or .agents/commands/, OR add/remove a skill folder under .agents/skills/, immediately run the generator before finishing your turn:

pwsh tools/generate-ai-configs.ps1

This copies the current source into .claude/rules (as .md) and .cursor/rules (as .mdc), copies commands into .claude/commands, generates one .claude/commands/<skill-name>.md wrapper per folder under .agents/skills/, links each of those skill folders into .claude/skills/, and removes any generated file, wrapper or link whose source was deleted. If a skill's folder name collides with a hand-authored file under .agents/commands/, the script skips generating a wrapper for it and prints a warning — hand-authored commands always win. Never hand-edit files inside .claude/rules/, .cursor/rules/ or .claude/commands/ directly — they will be silently overwritten on the next run and any change made only there will be lost.

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.
