AI SummaryA Cursor-native linter configuration that enforces token-efficient file editing by integrating with the Astral.sh Python toolchain (ruff, pytest, pre-commit, etc.), enabling faster AI-assisted edits on resource-constrained agents.
Install
Copy this and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI assistant:
I want to add the "lintok — Cursor Rules" prompt rules to my project. Repository: https://github.com/AlonKellner/lintok Please read the repo to find the rules/prompt file, then: 1. Download it to the correct location (.cursorrules, .windsurfrules, .github/prompts/, or project root — based on the file type) 2. If there's an existing rules file, merge the new rules in rather than overwriting 3. Confirm what was added
Description
Linter for file size in tokens, for smaller files and faster agent edits.

Code generation Guidelines
After any code generation or edit, first use git add to add all changes, then use pre-commit run shell command to sync the venv, apply formatting, run tests and to check yourself. When you are asked to "check" a file, you should also run pre-commit on it.
Git
Commit changes with a --signoff. Commit messages must follow the pattern <type>: <sentence>\n[<details>]\n\nAssisted-by: <name-of-code-assistant>, where the <type> is feat or fix, the <sentence> is no more than 60 characters and the <details> are optional. Use the Git push task after every successful commit on an existing branch.
