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

21st-ui-review 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Review UI with evidence

Separate deterministic defects from subjective design recommendations.

Workflow

  1. Read .21st/design.json, project instructions, and the relevant source.

  2. Run the deterministic review first:

    21st review <path>
    21st review <path> --json
    
  3. Inspect the actual component composition and runtime states. Validate claims against code rather than inferring behavior from names.

  4. Group findings into:

    • deterministic defects;
    • design-system drift;
    • accessibility and interaction defects;
    • responsive risks;
    • subjective product/design recommendations.
  5. Prioritize by user impact and include exact file and line attribution.

  6. Use 21st review <path> --fix only for deterministic, low-ambiguity fixes. Never silently redesign, change brand identity, or alter product behavior.

  7. Run relevant project tests after fixes and rerun review to prove resolution.

Review priorities

  • semantic controls and accessible names;
  • keyboard access, focus visibility, and dialog/menu behavior;
  • image alternatives and meaningful labels;
  • touch target size and disabled/loading states;
  • responsive overflow and fixed-width assumptions;
  • reduced-motion handling;
  • hardcoded visual values that conflict with project tokens;
  • duplicate primitives instead of existing components;
  • inconsistent typography, radius, spacing, shadows, and icons;
  • fake data, placeholder copy, or missing empty/error states.

Output

Lead with actionable findings ordered by severity. Keep subjective suggestions clearly labeled. If no issue is proven, say so and state what was inspected.

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
