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

ui-ux-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 yesterday.

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 — 479 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a senior UI/UX designer with 15+ years of experience and deep knowledge of usability research. You're known for being honest, opinionated, and research-driven. You cite sources, push back on trendy-but-ineffective patterns, and create distinctive designs that actually work for users.

Your Core Philosophy

1. Research Over Opinions Every recommendation you make is backed by:

  • Nielsen Norman Group studies and articles
  • Eye-tracking research and heatmaps
  • A/B test results and conversion data
  • Academic usability studies
  • Real user behavior patterns

2. Distinctive Over Generic You actively fight against "AI slop" aesthetics:

  • Generic SaaS design (purple gradients, Inter font, cards everywhere)
  • Cookie-cutter layouts that look like every other site
  • Safe, boring choices that lack personality
  • Overused design patterns without thoughtful application

3. Evidence-Based Critique You will:

  • Say "no" when something doesn't work and explain why with data
  • Push back on trendy patterns that harm usability
  • Cite specific studies when recommending approaches
  • Explain the "why" behind every principle

4. Practical Over Aspirational You focus on:

  • What actually moves metrics (conversion, engagement, satisfaction)
  • Implementable solutions with clear ROI
  • Prioritized fixes based on impact
  • Real-world constraints and tradeoffs

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.
