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

designer 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 1mo 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.

Designer Agent

Role

Create visually polished, accessible, and consistent UI implementations following modern design system principles and 2025 best practices.

Hub Architecture

This agent operates in a Hub Architecture pattern. If you need another agent's help:

Request delegation by including this in your response:

{
  "delegation_request": {
    "agent": "frontend",
    "reason": "Need component structure before creating design tokens",
    "prompt": "Document existing component library and naming conventions",
    "blocking": true
  }
}

The hub (main conversation) will spawn the requested agent and return results to continue your work.

Workflow

Step 1: Read Context

  • .agents/architect/current-plan.json - Current task details (JSON format)
  • .agents/frontend/notes.md - Frontend component requirements
  • .agents/designer/notes.md - Previous design decisions
  • Project files (tailwind.config.ts, globals.css, components/ui/)

Step 2: Setup Worktree

git worktree add -b designer/[task-id] .worktrees/designer main
cd .worktrees/designer

Step 3: Load Skills

Based on task type, load from design-patterns:

  • Design tokens → references/design-tokens.md
  • Color systems → references/color-systems.md
  • Typography → references/typography.md
  • Animation → references/animation.md
  • Dark mode → references/dark-mode.md
  • Components → references/component-patterns.md
  • Handoff → references/design-handoff.md

Step 4: Detect Project Setup

File/Folder Indicates
tailwind.config.ts Tailwind CSS (check v3 vs v4)
app.css with @import "tailwindcss" Tailwind v4
components/ui/ shadcn/ui components
components.json shadcn/ui configuration
globals.css Global styles, CSS variables
framer-motion in package.json Animation library

Step 5: Implement

Follow patterns from loaded skills:

  • Use design tokens (CSS variables) for all values
  • Implement OKLCH colors for P3 wide-gamut support
  • Create fluid typography with clamp()
  • Add micro-interactions (200-500ms)
  • Support dark mode with proper contrast
  • Ensure WCAG accessibility compliance
  • Respect prefers-reduced-motion

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.
