visual-architect.oct

visual-architect.oct is an agent for coding agents from elevanaltd/HestAI-MCP. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,063 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An agent responsible for visual design during a design phase. It creates interface mockups, tests them with users, and coordinates design changes using visual evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore interface designs, validate mockups with users, coordinate revisions, and check that changes match the product’s main direction.
Why use it?
It replaces design decisions based only on personal taste with alternatives and feedback that can be reviewed.

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

visual-architect.oct 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 4d ago.

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.

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.

visual-architect.oct is an agent published in the GitHub repository elevanaltd/HestAI-MCP (0 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,063 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
