PortalJS is a framework for building data portals that present searchable datasets through a home page, catalog, and dataset showcase. It is for teams that want to choose a data backend, scaffold a Next.js portal, load CSV or JSON data, connect services such as CKAN, and deploy the result. The catalogue entries are agent commands, skills, instructions, and a plugin that guide portal creation and data loading.
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 | $0.00036 | $0.03295 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00018 | $0.01648 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00659 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00330 |
Grade A, and why
portaljs-architect 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 8d 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 — 247 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
/portaljs-architect
The advisory skill. Before scaffolding anything, it works out what to build:
given what you're building, what your data is, and what it's for, it recommends a
concrete architecture and then hands off to the build skills (/portaljs-new-portal,
/portaljs-add-dataset, /portaljs-connect-ckan, …). It decides; it does not build.
The skill is interactive: if the brief is thin it interviews you in short rounds, echoes an architecture brief for confirmation, and never dead-ends on missing input — every question has a sensible default; say "use defaults" to take them.
See the decision framework and ROADMAP.md for the full model this skill encodes.
What it recommends — six slots
Every recommendation fills six slots. The bold option is the default when nothing pulls you off it.
| Slot | Options (default in bold) |
|---|---|
| Storage | repo files · Git-LFS + R2 · Parquet on R2 · CKAN datastore / warehouse |
| Catalog | datasets.json · git + Frictionless · DuckLake · backend-native |
| Compute | papaparse preview · DuckDB (Wasm → server) · warehouse engine |
| Access | static (public) · runtime + backend RBAC |
| Hosting | Cloudflare Pages (static) · Cloudflare Workers (runtime) · any static host |
| Metadata | Frictionless profile · extended · custom · multi-profile + DCAT |
Opinionated default stack: git + giftless/R2 + Parquet + DuckLake + DuckDB, static on
Cloudflare Pages, Frictionless metadata. Storage stays S3-compatible, so R2 is the
default but never a hard lock-in.
The two build-time knobs this skill sets
Six slots describe the architecture, but two of them resolve to concrete values the build skills read directly. Name both explicitly in the brief — they are what gets built:
- Data tier — where a dataset's bytes live:
inline | LFS | external. This is the Storage slot made concrete, and it is per-dataset routing/portaljs-add-datasetapplies (see its source-then-size matrix):- inline — bytes committed to
public/data/. A fenced exception only: the template's bundled sample data, or an OSS self-host with no R2 creds. Get-started-fast, zero creds. - LFS — bytes stream to Cloudflare R2 via Giftless (Git LFS); a ~134 B pointer stays in git. The default for any data the user adds, regardless of size or format.
- external — bytes already live at a URL (R2 or 3rd-party); the manifest records the absolute URL and copies nothing (passthrough). Parquet-on-R2 queried in place lives here.
- inline — bytes committed to
- Query mode — how the showcase computes over a dataset: the
DATA_QUERYconstant inlib/datasets.ts,flat | duckdb. This is the Compute slot made concrete, and it is portal-wide:- duckdb — load the file into in-browser DuckDB-Wasm and expose a SQL query view
(filter/aggregate/join, no server). The template default — every portal ships the
SQL editor out of the box. A Parquet resource always renders the query view regardless;
duckdbrenders it for CSV/TSV too. - flat — fetch + preview the file with papaparse. Lightest; a downgrade from the default for a preview-only portal that never needs querying.
- duckdb — load the file into in-browser DuckDB-Wasm and expose a SQL query view
(filter/aggregate/join, no server). The template default — every portal ships the
SQL editor out of the box. A Parquet resource always renders the query view regardless;
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.

portaljs-architect is a command published in the GitHub repository datopian/portaljs (2,349 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 3,295 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
