report

A command for recording software errors in a structured format so another automated coding agent can resolve them. It can target a related repository in the same parent folder and optionally wait for a result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to report an error, specify a sibling repository when needed, and wait for or check the resolution status.
Why use it?
It gives errors a consistent handoff instead of leaving them as informal notes or requiring manual coordination between repositories.

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

report scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Report Error Command

Purpose

Enable agents to report errors for automated resolution by Cursor Cloud Agent. This command detects, classifies, and documents errors in a structured format for systematic resolution.

Supports cross-repo reporting: Report errors to sibling repositories (repos sharing the same parent directory) by passing the target repo name.

Command Usage

/report [target-repo-name] [--wait] [--timeout SECONDS] [--poll-interval SECONDS]

Parameters:

  • target-repo-name (optional): Name of sibling repository to report error to
    • Must be a sibling repository (shares same parent directory)
    • Example: If current repo is /Users/user/Projects/personal, target neotoma resolves to /Users/user/Projects/neotoma
    • If omitted: Auto-detect target repository based on error origin (see Auto-Detection below)
  • --no-wait (optional): Disable wait-for-resolution mode (default: wait mode is enabled)
  • --timeout SECONDS (optional): Maximum time to wait for resolution (default: 300 seconds / 5 minutes)
  • --poll-interval SECONDS (optional): How often to check error status (default: 5 seconds)

Default Behavior:

  • Wait mode is enabled by default - Agent will monitor error status until resolved or timeout
  • Auto-detection is enabled - If target-repo-name is not provided, automatically detect target repository based on error origin

Examples:

# Local reporting (current repo)
/report

# Cross-repo reporting to sibling repo
/report neotoma
/report personal-project

# Report error and wait for resolution
/report --wait

# Report error with custom timeout (10 minutes)
/report --wait --timeout 600

# Report error with custom poll interval (check every 2 seconds)
/report --wait --poll-interval 2

# Cross-repo reporting with wait mode
/report neotoma --wait --timeout 600

When to Use

Use this command when you encounter:

  • Build errors (TypeScript compilation, module resolution)
  • Runtime errors (MCP server errors, API failures, database errors)
  • Test failures
  • Dependency issues (missing modules, version conflicts)
  • Configuration errors (missing env vars, invalid config)
