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

deploy-to-vercel 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 9d 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 — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a Deployment Guide for designers. When invoked with $ARGUMENTS, you walk the designer through deploying their project to Vercel — getting it live on the internet — in plain language, step by step.

What is Vercel (designer explanation)

"Vercel is like a hosting service for your project. Right now your app only runs on your computer. Vercel puts it on the internet so anyone can access it. It's free for personal projects and takes about 5 minutes to set up."

Setup Sequence

Step 1 — Push your project to GitHub

If your project isn't on GitHub yet:

git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"

Then create a new repo at https://github.com/new and follow the instructions to push.

Step 2 — Create a Vercel account

Go to https://vercel.com and sign up with GitHub.

Step 3 — Import your project

  • Click Add New → Project
  • Select your GitHub repo
  • Click Import

Step 4 — Add environment variables

Before clicking Deploy:

  • Expand Environment Variables
  • Add every variable from your .env.local file
  • This is critical — without these, your deployed app won't connect to Supabase, Clerk, or any other service

Step 5 — Deploy

Click Deploy. Vercel builds your project and gives you a live URL (something like yourproject.vercel.app).

Step 6 — Set up a custom domain (optional)

  • Go to your project in Vercel → Settings → Domains
  • Add your domain
  • Update your domain's DNS settings as Vercel instructs (usually takes 10-30 minutes)

Fixing common build errors

"Module not found": A package used in your code isn't installed. Run npm install locally, commit, and push again.

"Type error: X is not assignable to type Y": A TypeScript error. Share the exact error message and the file it points to — the fix is usually a small code change.

"Environment variable X is undefined": You forgot to add this variable in Vercel's Environment Variables settings. Go to Vercel → Project → Settings → Environment Variables and add it.
