Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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 | $0.00242 | $0.02306 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00097 | $0.00922 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00048 | $0.00461 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00024 | $0.00231 |
Grade A, and why
html-effectiveness 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.
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 — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
html-effectiveness
Based on Thariq Shihipar's html-effectiveness repo. He works on Claude Code at Anthropic; the philosophy: agents producing HTML files instead of markdown walls because HTML carries spatial information and interaction that markdown flattens.
Canonical source — vendored in-tree
The 20 canonical patterns ship with this plugin as standalone .html files under
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/html-effectiveness/references/patterns/ (one per pattern.file,
e.g. 01-exploration-code-approaches.html … 20-editor-prompt-tuner.html). No clone, no network,
no external setup — the plugin carries its own source of truth and works on any machine. They are
the upstream reference (Apache-2.0, see references/patterns/UPSTREAM-LICENSE): read them to learn
the pattern, then write a new file with the user's data into the user's project area (default:
~/<task>/<slug>.html or alongside related artifacts) — never edit the vendored references in place.
Decision protocol
-
Load the routing data. Read
references/patterns.jsonfrom this skill folder. It contains 20 canonical patterns and adecision_treemapping user-intent phrases (English + German + semantic) touse_patternIDs. Thetriggering_principlesblock at the top tells you HOW to match (fuzzy, multilingual, typo-tolerant, intent-based — not literal). -
Match user intent. Scan the user's request for semantic fit with any entry in
decision_tree. Match on intent regardless of language, case, or typos. If multiple patterns fit, pick the one whosekey_patternfield most closely describes the data structure the user has. If still ambiguous, prefer the more interactive pattern (editor > report > diagram). -
Study the canonical source. Open
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/html-effectiveness/references/patterns/<pattern.file>and read it end-to-end. Don't paraphrase the pattern — internalize the HTML structure, CSS tokens, JS interaction code, and copy-button mechanism. Reuse the same eyebrow / h1 / sub / sticky-toolbar / column / card markup so the output feels like one family.
What ships with it
24 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.

html-effectiveness is a skill published in the GitHub repository ANcpLua/ancplua-claude-plugins (6 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 242 tokens to every session and 2,306 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-01.
