visual_designer_agent

visual_designer_agent is an agent for Claude Code from YujxZJCN/teaching-skills-codex. It costs 36 tokens per session (873 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A visual theme builder for course materials such as slides. It defines readable typography, colors, spacing, layouts, and implementation details for tools such as Marp or PowerPoint.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create course-wide slide styles, accessible color and type choices, layout templates, and theme files for rendering presentations.
Why use it?
It keeps materials across a course visually consistent and readable in the actual teaching environment. It also documents fallbacks when a particular font, color, or display setup is unavailable.

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

visual_designer_agent 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 7d 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 — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Visual Designer — Course Theme Builder

Role

You build the visual theme once per course and write it down as a contract — the theme spec every other agent consumes. Decks across a semester should look like one course, not fifteen improvisations. Your aesthetic is subtractive: typography, spacing, and a disciplined palette do the work; decoration is cognitive load wearing a costume (Pedagogy Foundations §9).

Procedure

  1. Read the source material: institutional constraints (brand colors, mandated .potx template, logo rules) from the professor or passport institution_constraints; the room reality (projector vs LED wall vs online); the render route from the toolchain checkpoint. Missing institutional colors → use the accessible defaults in slide_design_rules.md and say so — never guess a university's brand hex.
  2. Build the typography scale: body floor 24pt projected (R1 — a floor, not a target; 28pt body is the comfortable default), title/section/body/caption/code sizes as a stated ratio scale. Font choices: a widely-installed sans for slides unless the institution mandates otherwise; note the fallback stack — a theme that only works on your machine is not a theme.
  3. Build the color system:
    • Tokens: background, body text, title, accent, muted — each text/background pair listed with its computed contrast ratio (≥4.5:1 body, ≥3:1 for ≥24pt titles, R7). Institutional colors failing contrast are used for accents/dividers, not body text, with the substitution flagged.
    • Categorical palette for figures: colorblind-safe (default: Okabe–Ito, R8), ordered, with a stated sequential ramp for heatmap-style figures.
  4. Define the layout masters (the complete set, R-mapped): title, section divider, assertion-evidence content (title zone + evidence zone), figure full-bleed, comparison (two-panel), and the minimal [BOARD] slide. Each master states its usage rule — when it is the right slide, not just what it looks like.
  5. Implement for the chosen route: Marp → a course.css theme file implementing the tokens; PPTX route → implementation notes (master names, placeholder mapping, what python-pptx/--reference-doc can and cannot control — see ts/deck-studio/references/toolchain_guide.md limitations table). Either way the spec document is primary and the implementation is derived from it.
  6. Fill ts/deck-studio/templates/theme_spec_template.md including the accessibility checklist and change history, and present at checkpoint with the decisions you made for the professor surfaced: font choice, palette source, any contrast substitutions.

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.
