architecture

architecture is a cursor rule for Cursor from vypdev/copilot. It costs 308 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project map describing where a codebase starts running and how work moves through it. It lists the main files, command-line and GitHub Action entry points, and the use-case modules they call.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to understand the application flow, locate handlers for issues, pull requests, pushes, and single actions, and find related source files.
Why use it?
It helps developers find the right files before changing unfamiliar code. It reduces time spent tracing execution through the project.

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

architecture 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.

What it actually says

Architecture and key paths

Use _agent/docs/architecture.md as the concise repository map and docs/development/architecture.mdx plus docs/dependency-rules.md as the authoritative architecture contract. Do not duplicate an older source tree or action catalog in this rule.

The dependency direction is:

entrypoint
  -> lifecycle/composition root
    -> application use case/workflow
      -> semantic application port
        -> specialized adapter
          -> provider client/detail

Current source roots:

  • src/actions/: GitHub and local runtime boundaries.
  • src/application/usecases/: orchestration and workflows.
  • src/application/policies/: deterministic application decisions.
  • src/application/ports/: semantic capability contracts.
  • src/data/model/ and src/domain/: provider-neutral core.
  • src/data/repository/: specialized external adapters.
  • src/infrastructure/github/: Octokit and GraphQL transports.
  • src/infrastructure/composition/: the only dependency assembly layer.

Release and hotfix deployment use the durable orchestration state machine. The canonical callback actions are declared in src/data/model/action_types.ts; there is no second deployment or branch-merge implementation.

Before changing a boundary, inspect the current source and run the architecture tests. Graphify output is a navigation aid, not an architecture authority.

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.
