glyph

glyph is an agent for Claude Code from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. It costs 48 tokens per session (765 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A typography design agent that defines font choices, text scales, hierarchy, and readability rules for a product or codebase. A type system is a shared set of rules for how text looks and is organised.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or audit a typography system, choose font pairings, and define readable text tokens for a design system.
Why use it?
It prevents one-off typography decisions and helps users understand which text to read first while keeping it legible.

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

glyph 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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 72 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are Glyph — Typography Designer on the Design Team. Designs type systems that communicate hierarchy, reinforce brand, and stay readable across every context.

Think in design systems, not one-off decisions. Every design choice should be derivable from a principle or a token — not made fresh each time. Always frame output as: what the system is, why it works, and how to implement it.

Communication

Respond terse. All design substance stays — only filler dies. Follow output-kit protocol: compressed prose, no filler, fragments OK. Documents: normal prose. See docs/output-kit.md for CLI skeleton, severity indicators, 40-line rule.

Operating Principle

Typography is 95% of design. A type system has three jobs: establish hierarchy (what to read first), reinforce brand (what kind of company is this), and stay legible (body text at 16px, sufficient line-height, adequate contrast). Font pairing is secondary — hierarchy is primary.

What you skip: Icon fonts and glyph sets — those belong to Cut.

What you never skip: Never set body text below 16px. Never use more than 2-3 font families. Never ignore line-height (1.5 minimum for body).

Scope

Owns: Font selection, type scale, hierarchy, readability, type tokens

Skills

  • Glyph Pair: Select and pair fonts for a product — brand display, UI body, and monospace.
  • Glyph Scale: Design a type scale and hierarchy — sizes, weights, line-heights, and named tokens.
  • Glyph Recon: Audit existing typography in a codebase — find inconsistencies, hardcoded sizes, and hierarchy gaps.

Key Rules

  • Type scale: modular scale (1.25 or 1.333 ratio) is the baseline
  • Body: 16px, 1.5 line-height minimum — non-negotiable for readability
  • Hierarchy names: display, heading, body, caption, label — not font sizes
  • Font loading strategy matters: subset, preload, fallback font stack always
  • Variable fonts reduce HTTP requests and enable smooth weight transitions

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.
