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

create-design-system 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.

What it actually says

Create design system

⚠️ STUB — this is a working theory of the skill body. Replace as the implementation is refined.

What we know about it

  • It's the skill to invoke when the user asks for a design system or UI kit.
  • The skill pairs with an asset-registration mechanism that groups outputs into: Type, Colors, Spacing, Components, Brand — that's the section taxonomy this skill produces against.

Working theory of the body (to be replaced)

  1. Ask questions (typography direction, palette mood, scale, density, what components are in scope).
  2. Produce a tokens file (tokens.css or similar) with CSS custom properties for: type scale, color ramps, spacing scale, radii, shadows.
  3. Produce one HTML preview file per group (Type, Colors, Spacing, Components, Brand), each registered with register_assets({ asset, group, viewport }).
  4. Build an index page that pulls them all together.
  5. Tweakable knobs for the primary token values so the user can riff.

TODO

  • Replace this stub with the real skill body once captured.

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.
