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.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.02588 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.01035 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00518 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00259 |
Grade A, and why
dependencies 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 1mo 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 349 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

🎯 DEPENDENCY STRATEGY
Workspace Dependencies Priority
# Always prefer workspace dependencies first
[dependencies]
tokio = { workspace = true }
serde = { workspace = true, features = ["derive"] }
# Only add new dependencies if not available in workspace
# Request permission before modifying Cargo.toml
📋 STANDARD CRATE RECOMMENDATIONS
Core Utilities
# Error handling
anyhow = "1.0" # Simple error handling
thiserror = "2.0" # Structured error types
derive_more = { version = "2", features = ["full"] } # Extended derive macros
# Data structures
typed-builder = "0.21" # Builder pattern
uuid = { version = "1.17", features = ["v4", "v7", "serde"] }
chrono = { version = "0.4", features = ["serde"] }
time = { version = "0.3", features = ["serde"] }
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.

dependencies is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository tyrchen/cursor-rust-rules (27 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,588 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
