A set of interface rules for using Font Awesome icons, a library of ready-made symbols, instead of text where suitable. It also asks for restrained styling and placeholders or spinners instead of the word “Loading”.

Use it when designing or implementing interface controls, loading states, colours, borders, and animations.

It keeps interface status messages and controls visually consistent without adding unnecessary decoration.

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	$0.00013	$0.00095
Opus 5.5	$0.00005	$0.00038
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00003	$0.00019
Haiku 4.5	$0.00001	$0.00010

Security

Grade A, and why

fontawesome 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to fontawesome — 0 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.

What it actually says

We use FontAwesome. If you can use a fa-icon (instead of text) use a fa-icon. Always strive to keep the UI modern, beautiful, and minimalistic. Shy away from using too many colors, borders, glow, and animations.

Never write "Loading" - always show a loading placeholder (or a loading spinner, when appropriate).

Changes

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.
