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.

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 | $0.00118 | $0.02455 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00059 | $0.01228 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00491 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00246 |
Grade A, and why
aesthetic-application 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 12d 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 — 212 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Aesthetic Application
Summary
Translates a named aesthetic into a complete, developer-ready design specification: a structured token specification table, cultural marker lists, component-level notes, and a flags section for conflicts. All decisions are concrete and implementable — never abstract mood descriptions. Covers all 7 dimensions of the aesthetic framework.
Compatibility / Tooling
This skill intentionally does not declare allowed-tools frontmatter. It is portable across Agent Skills-compatible runtimes and relies on reading this SKILL.md plus skill-local references/ markdown files and the installed aesthetic-literacy dictionary. If an agent has file-reading tools, use them to load those files; otherwise ask the user to provide the relevant excerpt.
When to Apply This Skill
Apply when:
- The user asks to "make it look like X", "apply this aesthetic", or "design tokens for X"
- The user needs a developer-handoff spec from an aesthetic direction
- The user asks for CSS variables, design tokens, or component notes grounded in an aesthetic
- The user has supplied grounded visual values that need to be formatted as tokens
Do NOT apply when:
- No aesthetic has been identified (run
aesthetic-literacydisambiguation first) - The user wants implementation advice on components, accessibility resolution, or performance (out of scope)
Dependencies
Requires: aesthetic-literacy (7-dimension framework, dictionary, non-negotiables)
Works with user-supplied grounded values from reference images when available; prefer explicit supplied values over dictionary approximations.
Skill-local references for installed users:
references/output-contract.md— required response shape and quality barreferences/token-template.md— complete token table scaffoldreferences/css-translation-patterns.md— CSS implementation patterns by aesthetic dimensionreferences/component-notes-contract.md— required component-note coverage
Knowledge Base Path
What ships with it
8 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.

aesthetic-application is a skill published in the GitHub repository alexiseverage/aesthetic-frontend-skills (11 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 118 tokens to every session and 2,455 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-08-30.
