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 | $0.01037 | $0.01037 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00518 | $0.00518 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00207 | $0.00207 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00104 | $0.00104 |
Grade A, and why
rails-instructions rails-views.instructions.md 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 5d 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.

Rails Views and Helpers Guide
Core Philosophy
- Keep views simple and logic-free
- Use helpers for presentation logic only
- Leverage Rails' built-in view helpers
- Follow semantic HTML principles
- Optimize for readability and maintainability
View Architecture Principles
- Separate presentation from business logic completely
- Use partials for reusable view components
- Keep views focused on displaying data
- Implement proper HTML semantics
- Design for progressive enhancement
Helper Organization
- Keep helpers focused on specific presentation tasks
- Group related helpers in dedicated modules
- Use ApplicationHelper for truly global helpers
- Document complex helper methods
- Test helpers with various input scenarios
Rails Helper Usage
- Prefer Rails helpers over raw HTML
- Use semantic Rails form helpers
- Leverage Rails' built-in formatting helpers
- Implement proper escaping for security
- Follow Rails conventions for helper naming
Partial Best Practices
- Name partials with leading underscore
- Keep partials small and focused
- Pass locals explicitly for clarity
- Avoid instance variables in partials
- Document partial requirements
Form Design Principles
- Use
form_withfor all forms - Implement proper form accessibility
- Add appropriate ARIA labels
- Use Rails form builders consistently
- Handle errors at the field level
Asset Management
- Use Rails asset helpers for all assets
- Implement proper image alt texts
- Leverage asset fingerprinting
- Configure CDN for production assets
- Optimize images before serving
Internationalization
- Extract all text to locale files
- Use Rails I18n helpers consistently
- Design views for text expansion
- Handle pluralization properly
- Test with multiple locales
Performance Optimization
- Use fragment caching for expensive views
- Implement Russian doll caching
- Avoid N+1 queries in views
- Lazy load below-fold content
- Profile view rendering times

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.

rails-instructions rails-views.instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository levifig/rails-instructions (54 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,037 tokens to every session, about $0.0052 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.
