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

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.

fontawesome Best Practices

Font Awesome 7 is the definitive source for scalable UI icons in our web applications. Leveraging its power correctly ensures visual consistency, accessibility, and optimal performance. This guide outlines our team's mandatory best practices for Font Awesome integration.

1. Code Organization and Structure

Always use a Font Awesome Kit for integration. It's the most robust and feature-rich method, providing auto-accessibility and simplified management.

1.1 Kit-Based Setup

Always embed your Font Awesome Kit script in the <head> of every page. This ensures icons load early, prevents FOUT (Flash of Unstyled Text/Icons), and enables critical auto-accessibility features.

BAD: Script in <body> or via local files (unless explicitly self-hosting)

<body>
  <!-- ... other content ... -->
  <script src="https://kit.fontawesome.com/[YOUR_KIT_CODE].js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
</body>

GOOD: Script in <head>

<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>My Awesome App</title>
  <!-- Font Awesome Kit must be here -->
  <script src="https://kit.fontawesome.com/[YOUR_KIT_CODE].js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
  <!-- ... other head elements ... -->
</head>

1.2 Icon Markup

Use the <i> tag with appropriate Font Awesome classes. This is the simplest and most widely supported method.

BAD: Using <span> or other elements without a strong reason

<span class="fa-solid fa-user"></span>

GOOD: Using <i> for standard icons

<i class="fa-solid fa-user"></i>

1.3 Custom Icons

For icons not available in Font Awesome, upload them to your Kit. Treat them exactly like native icons for consistency.

BAD: Manually embedding custom SVGs or using separate icon libraries

<img src="/assets/custom-icon.svg" alt="Custom Icon">

GOOD: Uploading custom SVGs to your Kit and using fa-kit prefix

<!-- In your Kit, you've uploaded 'my-custom-icon.svg' -->
<i class="fa-kit fa-my-custom-icon"></i>
<!-- For duotone custom icons -->
<i class="fa-kit-duotone fa-my-duotone-icon"></i>

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.
