What is 01-new-project?

A project setup rule for the /new-project command. It creates an organised folder for an AI product design project, including application, documentation, design, and optional marketing areas.

Use it to start a named project with a basic Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, and shadcn/ui app structure plus templates for design documentation.

It removes the need to create the starting folders and configuration by hand. It also provides a place for later workflow outputs such as the PRD and wireframes.

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.

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 5.1	$0.00029	$0.00500
Opus 5.5	$0.00012	$0.00200
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00006	$0.00100
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00050

Security

Grade A, and why

01-new-project 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.

- project_type (default: "ai-product-design")
- include_marketing (default: true)
Behavior:
- Create projects/{project_name}/ directory structure
- Initialize the main folders: app/, docs/, design/, and marketing/ (if requested)
- Set up basic configuration files and README templates
- Create initial directory structure for design documentation
- If project already exists, ask before overwriting
Output:
- Directory: projects/{project_name}/
- Structure:
  - app/ (Next.js application)
    - Basic Next.js setup with TypeScript, Tailwind, and shadcn/ui
    - src/app/ with basic routing structure
    - src/components/ui/ for reusable components
  - docs/ (Design documentation)
    - PRD.md template (empty, to be filled by /prd)
    - presentations/ (for case studies and presentations)
  - design/ (Design assets)
    - wireframes/ (lofi/ and midfi/ subdirectories)
    - ui-design/ (for design system documentation)
  - marketing/ (Marketing site, if requested)
    - Basic Next.js setup for marketing pages
    - Waitlist functionality template
- Files:
  - projects/{project_name}/README.md (project overview and setup instructions)
  - Each app has its own package.json, tsconfig.json, etc.
Acceptance:
- Project structure follows the established pattern
- All generated apps can run with npm install && npm run dev
- README includes clear setup and usage instructions
- All directories and template files are created

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.
