A collection of coding rules for the Cursor editor, covering commits, code style, documentation, packages, and an MCP bridge.

Use it as a reference when developing the kognamcp project. It covers conventional commit messages, Python practices, documentation, pipx installation, package versions, and JSON-RPC communication.

It gives contributors consistent project standards, helping avoid unclear commits, inconsistent code, incomplete documentation, and packaging mistakes.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00257	$0.00257
Opus 5.5	$0.00103	$0.00103
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00051	$0.00051
Haiku 4.5	$0.00026	$0.00026

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

Cursor Rules for kognamcp project

Git Commit Standards

Always use conventional commits format: type(scope): description
Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore, perf, ci, build
Examples:
- feat: add new MCP bridge functionality
- fix: resolve help command issue in bridge.py
- docs: update README with pipx installation
- refactor: restructure package directory layout

Code Standards

Follow PEP 8 for Python code
Use descriptive variable and function names
Add docstrings for public functions
Keep functions focused and single-purpose

Documentation

Keep documentation concise and user-friendly
Avoid redundant information across files
Make instructions generic (not client-specific)
Include troubleshooting sections where helpful

Package Management

Use pipx for global CLI tool installation
Keep requirements.txt minimal and specific
Update version numbers consistently across files
Test package installation before publishing

MCP Bridge Development

Maintain JSON-RPC 2.0 compliance
Handle stdin/stdout communication properly
Provide clear error messages
Support standard MCP methods (initialize, tools/list, tools/call)

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.
