I was curious and tried to run your code but got an error:

Runaway argument?
{\tikz [remember picture,overlay]{
./MarginRules.tex:10: Paragraph ended before \AddEverypageHook was complete.
<to be read again> 
                   \par 
l.10 
     
? 
Process aborted

Now I am even more curious! 

Regards
