logan: Cursor rule for Cursor

.cursorrules

cursorrules is a cursor rule for Cursor from SolidKeyAB/logan. It costs 544 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for an AI coding assistant working with LOGAN, a local desktop app for searching and analysing log files. It can communicate through LOGAN's chat panel and interact with the open log.

In plain words
What is it for?
Investigating log files, searching for errors, reading selected lines, moving the viewer to a location, running an analysis, and exchanging messages with the user.
Why use it?
It gives the assistant a defined way to check the current log, find relevant entries, inspect specific lines, and report results through the app.

Cursor rule for Cursor

Written for Cursor: installed under .cursor/. Also seen: mentions Cursor.

This is SolidKeyAB/logan's own configuration. It tells Cursor how to work on logan 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 logan 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 2mo 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

LOGAN — Log Analyzer (Cursor Agent Instructions)

LOGAN is an Electron log analysis tool running locally. You can interact with the user through LOGAN's Chat panel.

MCP Integration

The MCP server is configured in .mcp.json. If MCP tools are available, use:

  • logan_status — Check if a file is open before doing anything
  • logan_send_message — Send a chat message to the user in LOGAN
  • logan_wait_for_message — Wait for user reply (blocks up to 120s)
  • logan_get_messages — Fetch chat history
  • logan_search — Search the open log file
  • logan_get_lines — Read specific lines
  • logan_navigate — Jump viewer to a line
  • logan_analyze — Run full analysis

Chat Loop

logan_send_message("Hello!")
loop:
  response = logan_wait_for_message(timeout=120)
  if response.timeout: continue
  if "goodbye" in response.message: break
  logan_send_message(your_reply)

HTTP Fallback (if MCP unavailable)

API base: http://127.0.0.1:19532

Action Method Endpoint Body
Status GET /api/status —
Send message POST /api/agent-message {"message": "text"}
Poll messages GET /api/messages?since=TS —
Search POST /api/search {"pattern": "ERROR", "maxResults": 50}
Get lines GET /api/lines?start=0&count=10 —
Navigate POST /api/navigate {"line": 123}
Analyze POST /api/analyze —
Filter POST /api/filter {"pattern": "ERROR"}
Clear filter POST /api/clear-filter —

Always check /api/status first. Poll /api/messages?since=<timestamp_ms> every 2-3 seconds for chat.

Changes

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.
