content-quality

A set of writing rules for documentation intended to guide AI coding agents. It covers structure, Markdown formatting, command examples, placeholders, error handling, and common mistakes to avoid.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or reviewing skill documentation, reference files, and command-line instructions for coding agents.
Why use it?
It helps make instructions precise enough for an agent to follow, especially when commands need exact options or failures require a defined response.

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.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 0 Nothing until a file matches its globs; then the whole rule loads.
When invoked 311 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

content-quality 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 2d 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

Primary audience is AI coding agents, not humans. Be prescriptive ("Run X") not descriptive ("You could run X"). Include exact CLI commands with all required flags. Use --output json on any command whose output the agent parses. Specify what to do when a command fails, not just the happy path. Number rules — agents follow numbered lists more reliably than prose. Include anti-patterns — "what NOT to do" prevents the most expensive mistakes.

Markdown: ATX headers (#, ##), no underline-style. Fenced code blocks with language identifiers (```bash, ```yaml, ```csharp, ```json). Tables for structured data. > blockquotes for warnings. Heading hierarchy must not skip levels.

CLI docs: use <PLACEHOLDER> (angle brackets, UPPER_SNAKE_CASE) for user-provided values. Specify required vs optional flags. Shell commands must use Unix syntax (never del/dir/nul); escape backslashes in Windows paths (C:\\path\\file.txt).

Do NOT include: marketing language, version-specific facts that will go stale (link to latest docs instead), duplicate content across files, auto-generated --help output, images or binary files.

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.

content-quality is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository UiPath/skills (150 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 311 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.
