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

implementing-search-filter 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 6 executable files (examples/django_filter_backend.py, examples/fastapi_search.py, examples/sqlalchemy_search.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Search & Filter Implementation

Implement search and filter interfaces with comprehensive frontend components and backend query optimization.

Purpose

This skill provides production-ready patterns for implementing search and filtering functionality across the full stack. It covers React/TypeScript components for the frontend (search inputs, filter UIs, autocomplete) and Python patterns for the backend (SQLAlchemy queries, Elasticsearch integration, API design). The skill emphasizes performance optimization, accessibility, and user experience.

When to Use

  • Building product search with category and price filters
  • Implementing autocomplete/typeahead search
  • Creating faceted search interfaces with dynamic counts
  • Adding search to data tables or lists
  • Building advanced boolean search for power users
  • Implementing backend search with SQLAlchemy or Django ORM
  • Integrating Elasticsearch for full-text search
  • Optimizing search performance with debouncing and caching
  • Creating accessible search experiences

Core Components

Frontend Search Patterns

Search Input with Debouncing

  • Implement 300ms debounce for performance
  • Show loading states during search
  • Clear button (X) for resetting
  • Keyboard shortcuts (Cmd/Ctrl+K)
  • See references/search-input-patterns.md

Autocomplete/Typeahead

  • Suggestion dropdown with keyboard navigation
  • Highlight matched text in suggestions
  • Recent searches and popular items
  • Prevent request flooding with debouncing
  • See references/autocomplete-patterns.md

Filter UI Components

  • Checkbox filters for multi-select
  • Range sliders for numerical values
  • Dropdown filters for single selection
  • Filter chips showing active selections
  • See references/filter-ui-patterns.md

Backend Query Patterns

Database Query Building

  • Dynamic query construction with SQLAlchemy
  • Django ORM filter chaining
  • Index optimization for search columns
  • Full-text search in PostgreSQL
  • See references/database-querying.md
