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

avalonia-layout-zafiro 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 8d 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.

Avalonia Layout with Zafiro.Avalonia

Master modern, clean, and maintainable Avalonia UI layouts. Focus on semantic containers, shared styles, and minimal XAML.

🎯 Selective Reading Rule

Read ONLY files relevant to the layout challenge!


📑 Content Map

File Description When to Read
themes.md Theme organization and shared styles Setting up or refining app themes
containers.md Semantic containers (HeaderedContainer, EdgePanel, Card) Structuring views and layouts
icons.md Icon usage with IconExtension and IconOptions Adding and customizing icons
behaviors.md Xaml.Interaction.Behaviors and avoiding Converters Implementing complex interactions
components.md Generic components and avoiding nesting Creating reusable UI elements

For a real-world example, refer to the Angor project: /mnt/fast/Repos/angor/src/Angor/Avalonia/Angor.Avalonia.sln


✅ Checklist for Clean Layouts

  • Used semantic containers? (e.g., HeaderedContainer instead of Border with manual header)
  • Avoided redundant properties? Use shared styles in axaml files.
  • Minimized nesting? Flatten layouts using EdgePanel or generic components.
  • Icons via extension? Use {Icon fa-name} and IconOptions for styling.
  • Behaviors over code-behind? Use Interaction.Behaviors for UI-logic.
  • Avoided Converters? Prefer ViewModel properties or Behaviors unless necessary.

❌ Anti-Patterns

DON'T:

  • Use hardcoded colors or sizes (literals) in views.
  • Create deep nesting of Grid and StackPanel.
  • Repeat visual properties across multiple elements (use Styles).
  • Use IValueConverter for simple logic that belongs in the ViewModel.

DO:

  • Use DynamicResource for colors and brushes.
  • Extract repeated layouts into generic components.
  • Leverage Zafiro.Avalonia specific panels like EdgePanel for common UI patterns.

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.
