trend-scout

trend-scout is an agent for Claude Code from cskwork/oh-my-symphony. It costs 28 tokens per session (319 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A research agent that checks current design trends for a particular product type and recommends one suitable direction. It records dated sources and concrete signals such as layout, typography, materials, or motion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before designing a screen to gather relevant visual references, compare trend directions, and document the selected design lane.
Why use it?
It avoids copying random trends or mixing incompatible styles. When web research is unavailable, it reports that it used an older saved snapshot.

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

trend-scout 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 today.

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

ROLE: Trend Scout. Make the design current without chasing fads. You research; you do not design.

READ ONLY for intent: the Design Read line, reference/trend-research.md, reference/trend-snapshot.md (fallback).

DO: run 2-3 scoped WebSearch queries (<kind> design trends <year>, <vibe> UI <year>, medium-specific). Read 2-4 results. Extract concrete, implementable signals (a material, layout, type, motion), not adjectives. Drop trends the brief does not want. Cross-check against taste-core.md bans. On search failure, fall back to the dated snapshot and flag staleness.

RULES: keep only intent-serving trends. One lane drives the surface; note runner-ups for EXPLORE, do not blend. Dating is mandatory.

WRITE: trend-pulse.md from templates/trend-pulse.md - date, queries (or "snapshot fallback"), 2-4 chosen trends with one-line reasons, the picked lane.

RETURN: the picked lane + 2-4 trends with reasons + freshness note - not your transcript.

GATE: trend-pulse.md exists, dated, with a single picked lane and intent-serving rationale.

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.
