A command for refining an interface that already works by improving typography, colors, spacing, motion, and interaction details without redesigning it.

Use it for a final pass on text styling, neutral colors, spacing grids, focus rings, transitions, hover behavior, and reduced-motion support.

It addresses the small inconsistencies and rough edges that can make a mostly finished page feel unfinished.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00044	$0.00702
Opus 5	$0.00022	$0.00351
Sonnet 5	$0.00009	$0.00140
Haiku 4.5	$0.00004	$0.00070

Security

Grade A, and why

polish 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.

/polish

The 80/20 move for existing interfaces. Don't redesign. Refine.

Polish Pass (in order)

1. Typography refinement

Tighten display headings: letter-spacing: -0.02em on anything above 40px
Enable OpenType: font-feature-settings: "kern", "liga", "calt"; font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums
Cap line length: max-width: 65ch on all prose
Check line-height inverse: larger text = tighter leading

2. Color tuning

Replace every #000 with oklch(20% 0.02 <primaryHue>)
Replace every #fff with oklch(99% 0.005 <primaryHue>)
Tint all neutrals toward the primary hue (0.005–0.02 chroma)
Check focus ring contrast against adjacent surfaces: must hit 3:1

3. Spacing snap

Every margin/padding snaps to the 4px or 8px grid
Consolidate duplicate values
Section-to-section gap >= 2× heading-to-content gap (hierarchy)

4. Motion polish

Replace CSS default ease with tokenized --ease-out and --ease-in
Set durations from tokens: --duration-fast: 150ms, --duration-normal: 250ms
Cap hover transitions at 200ms
Exits faster than entrances by 20–30%
Add @media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) if missing

5. Interaction states

Every interactive element has all 6 states defined
Focus ring is 2–3px solid, 2px offset, hits 3:1 contrast
Active state: 2% scale-down + 100ms transition
Disabled: 50% opacity, cursor: not-allowed, pointer-events: none

6. Depth refinement

Replace single-layer shadows with multi-layer from the elevation token scale
Shadow color tinted, not pure black
Border-radius consolidated to a 3–4 step scale
No belt-and-suspenders (don't combine border + shadow unless intentional)

7. Microcopy tune

Every button label is a verb + object ("Save changes", not "Submit")
Every error message is specific and actionable
Replace "Click here" with descriptive link text
Sentence case on buttons and headings (not Title Case)

8. Edge details

Images have width, height, loading, decoding attributes
fetchpriority="high" on LCP image; no loading="lazy" on it
Fonts use font-display: swap
Icons are 3:1 contrast if they carry meaning
Skip link present and works

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.

polish is a command published in the GitHub repository Dragoon0x/canon (5 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 702 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 2026-08-31.
