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

cursor-memory-curator 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/backup-cursor-context.mjs, scripts/inventory-cursor-context.mjs, scripts/scan-cursor-context-risks.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Cursor Memory Curator

Goal

Audit Cursor durable context as user-owned agent state: expose stale, unsafe, duplicated, ignored, conflicting, or misplaced rules; propose better destinations; and route review, planning, persistence, and cleanup through one explicit contract.

Keep the subject scoped to Cursor Project Rules, legacy .cursorrules, AGENTS.md, User Rules, Team Rules, and user-maintained Cursor memory-bank artifacts. Do not treat this as a Codex memory curator.

When to use

  • Use for review, placement, planning, or cleanup of the Cursor durable surfaces named in the description.
  • Use when those surfaces are stale, conflicting, sensitive, ignored, over-broad, or causing Cursor to forget or reuse old guidance.

When not to use

  • Do not use for Codex memory, ordinary docs, or generic prompt work without Cursor durable context.
  • Keep review requests read-only. Keep User/Team Rules manual unless a documented file-backed artifact or explicitly approved export path is in scope.

Workflow selection

Always expose these workflows in this order. plan-run-cleanup-file is always first and Recommended:

Workflow Delivery Result

review-chat Chat only Full read-only review and recommendations.
review-file One redacted file record Full read-only review and recommendations.
cleanup-chat Chat plus backup Full review followed by direct high-confidence atomic cleanup and verification.
cleanup-file One redacted file record plus backup Persist the review, then directly apply high-confidence atomic cleanup and verification.
plan-cleanup-chat Chat only Full review and user-approved cleanup plan; no cleanup.

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.
