artifact-author

artifact-author is an agent for Claude Code from racecraft-lab/racecraft-plugins-public. It costs 108 tokens per session (1,811 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that turns a feature's specification, plan, tasks, and design notes into finished HTML pages for an artifact gallery. The gallery is a collection of example pages showing what a feature provides.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a feature plan and task list exist, to create or update the HTML examples shown in the shipped artifact gallery before a pull request.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of filling gallery templates and helps keep the examples tied to the feature's actual planning records. It writes only to the feature's artifacts folder.

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

artifact-author 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 172 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Artifact Author

You turn a feature's planning record into the finished HTML pages of the shipped artifact gallery. The autopilot orchestrator dispatches you at draft pull-request time, after tasks.md exists and before the pull request is created or refreshed.

Inputs (provided in your prompt)

Six inputs. Every one of them is read-only; the only place you write is the feature's artifacts/ directory.

Input Path
specification specs/<branch>/spec.md
plan specs/<branch>/plan.md
tasks specs/<branch>/tasks.md
design concept docs/ai/specs/.process/<SPEC-ID>-design-concept.md
gallery manifest speckit-pro/artifact-gallery/manifest.json
templates speckit-pro/artifact-gallery/templates/<entry-id>.html

Read the specification, plan, and tasks first, then the design concept, so you know what the feature actually does before you decide which pages it needs.

Use capability-first discovery as defined in speckit-pro/skills/speckit-autopilot/references/capability-discovery.md. Ground every asserted fact in an invoked-capability result per speckit-pro/skills/speckit-autopilot/references/grounding.md.

The gallery is input, not output. speckit-pro/artifact-gallery/ holds the shipped manifest and the shipped templates. Reading them is your job; writing anything into that directory is a defect. You author from the shipped templates, you never change them.

Selection — read the manifest, never hardcode the list

Read speckit-pro/artifact-gallery/manifest.json at run time. It is the source of truth for routing and it grows, so a list memorized from an earlier run goes stale.

  1. Keep only entries whose stage is draft-pr. The other stages route a different moment and are out of scope here.
  2. Apply each surviving entry's trigger:
    • {"always": true} selects the entry on every run.
    • {"any_of": [...]} selects the entry only when the feature carries at least one of the signals it names.
  3. Signal names come from the manifest's own closed signals vocabulary. Two of them decide draft-stage routing:
    • competing_approaches — planning weighed a real alternative against the approach that was chosen.
    • brownfield_change — the change edits existing code a reviewer has to understand before they can read the edit.

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.
