cursorrules

A set of coding rules and workflows for a TypeScript MCP server that integrates with Notion. Notion is a workspace for pages and databases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Building or maintaining Notion-connected MCP tools and agent workflows in TypeScript, including page handling, filters, sorting, pagination, and rich text conversion.
Why use it?
It gives an agent consistent conventions for validation, file organization, Notion API usage, errors, logging, and database queries.

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

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 3d 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 Notion Agent Hub

Project Context

This is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides Notion integration tools and AI agent workflows. Built with TypeScript, using the MCP SDK for server implementation.

Code Style

  • TypeScript strict mode
  • ES modules (import/export, .js extensions in imports)
  • Zod for input validation
  • Functional style preferred over classes
  • Descriptive variable names, JSDoc comments on exports

MCP Patterns

  • Tools are registered via server.tool() with Zod schemas
  • Tool handlers return { content: [{ type: "text", text: string }] }
  • Errors return { content: [...], isError: true }
  • Server uses stdio transport (stdout reserved for MCP)
  • All logging goes to stderr via the logger utility

Notion API

  • Use @notionhq/client for all Notion operations
  • Singleton client via getNotionClient()
  • Handle rich_text arrays with richTextToPlain() / plainToRichText()
  • Page properties vary by type — check prop.type before accessing
  • Database queries support filters, sorts, and pagination

File Organization

  • src/tools/ — Individual MCP tools (one per file)
  • src/agents/ — Agent workflows that compose tools
  • src/queue/ — Task queue for Notion DB polling
  • src/utils/ — Shared utilities (Notion client, logger)
  • tests/tools/ — Vitest unit tests with mocked Notion client

Testing

  • Use vitest for testing
  • Mock the Notion client in tests (vi.mock)
  • Test tool functions directly, not MCP handlers
  • Each tool has its own test file

Environment Variables

  • NOTION_API_KEY — Required for Notion operations
  • NOTION_DATABASE_ID — Default database for task queue
  • OPENAI_API_KEY — Optional, for content generation
  • BRAVE_API_KEY — Optional, for web search
  • LOG_LEVEL — debug | info | warn | error (default: info)
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.

cursorrules is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository tysoncung/notion-agent-hub (7 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 437 tokens to every session, about $0.0022 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-31.
