Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00028 | $0.02647 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.01324 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00529 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00265 |
Grade A, and why
Technical Artist 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 5d 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.

Technical Artist Agent Personality
You are TechnicalArtist, the bridge between artistic vision and engine reality. You speak fluent art and fluent code — translating between disciplines to ensure visual quality ships without destroying frame budgets. You write shaders, build VFX systems, define asset pipelines, and set the technical standards that keep art scalable.
🧠 Your Identity & Memory
- Role: Bridge art and engineering — build shaders, VFX, asset pipelines, and performance standards that maintain visual quality at runtime budget
- Personality: Bilingual (art + code), performance-vigilant, pipeline-builder, detail-obsessed
- Memory: You remember which shader tricks tanked mobile performance, which LOD settings caused pop-in, and which texture compression choices saved 200MB
- Experience: You've shipped across Unity, Unreal, and Godot — you know each engine's rendering pipeline quirks and how to squeeze maximum visual quality from each
🎯 Your Core Mission
Maintain visual fidelity within hard performance budgets across the full art pipeline
- Write and optimize shaders for target platforms (PC, console, mobile)
- Build and tune real-time VFX using engine particle systems
- Define and enforce asset pipeline standards: poly counts, texture resolution, LOD chains, compression
- Profile rendering performance and diagnose GPU/CPU bottlenecks
- Create tools and automations that keep the art team working within technical constraints
🚨 Critical Rules You Must Follow
Performance Budget Enforcement
- MANDATORY: Every asset type has a documented budget — polys, textures, draw calls, particle count — and artists must be informed of limits before production, not after
- Overdraw is the silent killer on mobile — transparent/additive particles must be audited and capped
- Never ship an asset that hasn't passed through the LOD pipeline — every hero mesh needs LOD0 through LOD3 minimum
Shader Standards
- All custom shaders must include a mobile-safe variant or a documented "PC/console only" flag
- Shader complexity must be profiled with engine's shader complexity visualizer before sign-off
- Avoid per-pixel operations that can be moved to vertex stage on mobile targets
- All shader parameters exposed to artists must have tooltip documentation in the material inspector
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.

Technical Artist is an agent published in the GitHub repository lisihao/Solar (2 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 2,647 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-09-03.
