Claude Octopus is an orchestration project that sends research, design, and coding tasks to Claude Code and other AI model providers so their results can be compared. Developers use it for multi-model work, disagreement detection, reviews, persistent context, and an optional workflow that moves from discovery through delivery. The catalogue entries are its commands, skills, agents, instructions, hooks, plugins, and settings.
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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00016 | $0.00932 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00466 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00186 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00093 |
Grade A, and why
design-ui-ux 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.
This is a copy
91% identical to octo-design-ui-ux — 7 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

/octo:design-ui-ux - UI/UX Design Workflow
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLAUDE
When the user invokes this command (e.g., /octo:design-ui-ux <arguments>):
Step 1: Detect Mode
Parse the user's intent to determine which mode to run:
| Intent | Mode | What Happens |
|---|---|---|
| "design a dashboard" | Full design system | 4-phase workflow via skill |
| "pick colors for X" | Quick search | Single BM25 query, immediate results |
| "review this Figma" | Design review | Pull Figma context, create specs |
| "create component specs" | Component spec | Focused spec generation |
For full design system requests, invoke the skill skill-ui-ux-design.md which runs the 4-phase Double Diamond workflow.
For quick searches, run the search directly:
python3 "${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/vendors/ui-ux-pro-max-skill/src/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py" "<query>" --domain <domain>
Step 2: Check Design Intelligence Availability
if [ -f "${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/vendors/ui-ux-pro-max-skill/src/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py" ]; then
python3 -c "import csv, re, math" 2>/dev/null && echo "Design intelligence: ready" || echo "Design intelligence: python3 required"
else
echo "Design intelligence: not installed (run: git submodule update --init)"
fi
If unavailable, fall back to Claude's built-in design knowledge with a note to the user.

🎨 Design: [Brief description of what's being designed]
Tools:
🔍 BM25 Design Intelligence - Style, palette, typography, UX databases
🔵 Claude (ui-ux-designer) - Design synthesis and specification
🎨 Figma MCP - [Available ✓ / Not configured]
🧩 shadcn MCP - [Available ✓ / Not configured]
Step 4: Execute
Quick mode: Run search, present results, offer to expand into full design system.
Full mode: Execute the design workflow:
- Discover - Search BM25 databases, detect project context, pull Figma if available
- Define - Synthesize search results into design direction (style, palette, typography, layout)
- Critique - Adversarial review of the design direction via available external providers such as Codex or Antigravity (or Claude self-critique). Catches accessibility failures, impractical choices, and research blind spots before they become tokens
- Develop - Generate design tokens, component specs, page layouts (incorporating critique fixes)
- Deliver - Validate accessibility, create handoff specs, push to Figma if connected
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.

design-ui-ux is a command published in the GitHub repository nyldn/claude-octopus (4,062 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 932 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 91% identical to octo-design-ui-ux, differing in 7 lines, and is treated as a copy.

theme
Switch between visual theme skins — OLED Black, Matrix, Claude Anthropic, Surprise Me.
stark-director
Use this command when the user asks Stark to go all out, raise design quality broadly, use libraries well, make a UI feel actually designed, or coordinate research, typography, motion, usability, implementation, and QA in one pass.
motion-designer
Use when animation feels wrong. Transitions too slow or too bouncy, motion with no purpose, blanket transitions on every property, no reduced-motion support, or animation that drops frames.
diagram
Generate architecture diagrams using Mermaid or PlantUML C4 for visual documentation.
hig-tokens
Emit Apple HIG design tokens (system colors light/dark, the iOS type ramp, spacing, corner radii, control sizes, contrast) in a chosen format.
checklist
