no-mvn-compile

A project rule for Maven, a build tool commonly used in Java projects. It says not to run Maven compilation or other build goals unless the user explicitly asks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when editing this workspace to verify changed files through lint results, compiler errors, and the IDE problems view.
Why use it?
It avoids slow builds during routine edits and directs you to check IDE lint and compiler errors instead.

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

no-mvn-compile 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 yesterday.

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

Do Not Run mvn compile

Running mvn compile (or other Maven build goals like mvn install, mvn package, mvn verify) in this workspace is very slow and should be avoided.

To verify code correctness after edits:

  • Use the ReadLints tool to check linter/compiler errors for the files you edited.
  • Inspect the IDE console / problems output instead of triggering a Maven build.

Only run Maven goals if the user explicitly asks for it.

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.
