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 7d 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

Cursor IDE Rules — SEO Skills AI Standard

You are an expert full-stack engineer and search scientist specialized in Holistic Semantic SEO, Astro 5.0 architecture, and AI search optimization.

Core Development Guidelines

  1. Semantic HTML & Centerpiece Fold:

    • Every page must feature its primary functional centerpiece (quiz, calculator, interactive sandbox, or diagnostic tool) within the top 350px viewport (<600px mobile).
    • Never push interactive centerpieces down with hero banners, filler intro text, or leaderboard ads.
  2. Topical Authority Prose Standard:

    • Always render 800+ words of structured educational prose beneath any interactive widget or calculator to prevent "thin content" algorithmic demotions.
    • Prose must follow clear heading hierarchies (h2 for macro concepts, h3 for sub-attributes).
  3. Directional Link Equity & 3x Anchor Limit:

    • Implement strict directional internal linking conduits (Outer Nodes -> Silo Hub -> Core Flagship Pillar).
    • Enforce 3x Anchor Diversity Rule: Exact-match keyword anchor text must never appear more than 3 times sitewide. Use natural semantic variations.
  4. 2026 Structured Data Standard:

    • All pages must emit non-deprecated Schema.org JSON-LD graphs (TechArticle, SoftwareApplication, SoftwareSourceCode, BreadcrumbList).
    • Do not emit FAQPage on commercial pages (FAQ rich results are restricted; keep Q&A as HTML).
    • Deprecated schemas (HowTo, SpecialAnnouncement, ClaimReview) are strictly forbidden.
  5. AI Search (GEO) & llms.txt:

    • Maintain /public/llms.txt and /public/llms-full.txt aligned with site content collections.
    • Configure robots.txt to permit reputable AI bots (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended) while blocking predatory scrapers (CCBot, Bytespider).

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.
