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.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.00496 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00248 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00099 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00050 |
Grade A, and why
brutalist-skill 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 9d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Brutalist Skill — Swiss Industrial & Tactical Telemetry UI
Use this skill when the task calls for raw, mechanical, data-heavy interfaces with terminal aesthetics. Synthesizes Swiss typographic modernism with aerospace/military terminal design.
Use when
- Building developer tools, dashboards, monitoring UIs, or terminal-adjacent interfaces.
- The design goal is mechanical precision and raw data presentation.
- Avoiding consumer-friendly aesthetics in favour of functional density.
- CRT/terminal, industrial print, or tactical data display is the target aesthetic.
Visual Modes (choose one)
Swiss Industrial Print
- Light substrate: off-white backgrounds (#F4F4F0).
- Heavy black sans-serif typography.
- Aggressive asymmetry and dense data clusters.
- Aviation red (#CC0000) as sole accent.
- Structural dividing lines and registration symbols.
Tactical Telemetry / CRT Dark
- Near-black background (#0A0A0A).
- Phosphor-white text (#EAEAEA).
- Monospaced fonts at small sizes, generous character tracking.
- Same red accent. No gradients, shadows, or translucency.
- Simulated CRT scanlines, halftone overlays, or mechanical noise textures.
Typography Rules
- Macro: Fluid type scales (
clamp(4rem, 10vw, 15rem)), extremely tight letter-spacing. - Micro: Monospace at fixed small sizes with wide tracking — simulates mechanical typewriter or terminal matrix.
- No rounded or humanist typefaces.
- No serifs except for structural labels.
Layout Engineering
- Strict CSS Grid with visible borders (
1px solid). - Zero border-radius on all elements.
- Bimodal density: tightly-packed data clusters alternating with vast negative space.
- ASCII framing characters used for structural decoration.
- No card shadows or depth illusions.
Textural Effects (use sparingly)
- Halftone degradation patterns.
- CRT scanline overlays via CSS.
- Mechanical noise or grain for analog feel.
Forbidden
- Rounded corners (border-radius must be 0).
- Gradients, translucency, backdrop-blur.
- Decorative icons or emoji.
- Consumer-friendly color palettes.
- Smooth easing on animations (use step() or linear).
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.

brutalist-skill is a skill published in the GitHub repository aaronnat23/disp8ch (100 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 496 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
