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 | $0.00048 | $0.02169 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.01085 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00434 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00217 |
Grade A, and why
apple-hig-inspectors 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 2d 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 — 477 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Apple HIG Inspectors
Design and review an inspector that shows contextual details and safe properties for the selected item — secondary to the main content, never primary navigation. Reach for this on macOS, iPadOS, SwiftUI .inspector, side detail panels, selected-item metadata, properties panels, AI run details, task details, file details, skill configuration, and project settings.
Core rule
Sidebar = where you go
Toolbar = what you do now
Inspector = details about what is selected
Command palette = fast global control
An inspector is not another sidebar. It should not contain primary navigation.
An inspector answers:
What is selected?
What details matter?
What can I adjust safely?
What metadata helps me understand this item?
When to use an inspector
Use an inspector when the user selects an item and needs supporting information or editable properties without leaving the main screen.
Good inspector use cases:
- Task details
- Project metadata
- Agent run status
- Agent configuration
- Skill settings
- Prompt metadata
- File info
- Note properties
- Decision context
- Report export settings
Avoid inspectors for:
- App-wide navigation
- Main content
- Full dashboards
- Long forms
- Onboarding
- Primary destructive actions
- Complex workflows that deserve their own screen
Apple-style principles
1. Inspectors are contextual
The inspector should change based on the selected item.
Examples:
Selected project → project info, status, owner, files, linked skills
Selected run → model, status, logs summary, duration, outputs
Selected skill → path, category, enabled state, validation status
Selected note → tags, created date, related project, source
If nothing is selected, show a calm empty state.
No Item Selected
Select a task, project, run, or skill to inspect its details.
2. Inspectors are secondary
The inspector should never overpower the main content.
Rules:
- Keep it narrower than main content.
- Use grouped sections.
- Keep labels short.
- Show only relevant fields.
- Avoid big hero cards.
- Avoid repeating the main screen.
- Avoid dashboard-style metrics unless directly related to the selected item.
What ships with it
2 files 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.
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.

apple-hig-inspectors is a skill published in the GitHub repository aka-kika/akakika-skills (10 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 2,169 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-31.
