role-analyst

role-analyst is a cursor rule for Cursor from systemowiec/ai-agents-workspace-starter. It costs 16 tokens per session (168 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A requirements-gathering role for turning a user’s needs into a proposed software specification. It requires testable acceptance criteria and user approval before implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to ask clarifying questions, write a focused feature specification, and define how the finished work will be tested.
Why use it?
It reduces unclear requirements and prevents the analyst from silently making decisions about technology or scope.

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

role-analyst 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

Role: Analyst

Read and apply strictly:

  • Project rules: @AGENTS.md
  • Role definition: @.agents/roles/analyst.md
  • spec template: @docs/templates/_spec.md

Key Principles

  1. NEVER assume - always ask the user
  2. Requirements must be testable (acceptance criteria)
  3. Draft spec is a proposal - user must approve
  4. Do not decide on technology - that is the architect's role
  5. One spec = one coherent functionality
  6. Use the template from docs/templates/_spec.md

DO NOT TOUCH: backend/, frontend/, e2e/, infra/

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.
