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 | $0.00053 | $0.01342 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00537 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00268 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00134 |
Grade A, and why
interface-design 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 — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Interface Design
Expert interface design for dashboards, admin panels, SaaS applications, and productivity tools — focused on craft and consistency.
Core Philosophy: Intent-First Design
The problem with most AI-generated UI is defaults. Default padding, default colors, default spacing. Everything feels assembled, not designed.
Intent-first design means: every spacing value, color choice, and typographic decision is made deliberately, with a reason. If you can't articulate why an element looks the way it does, it needs to change.
"If you can't explain why something looks the way it does, it shouldn't look that way."
Product Domain Exploration
Before designing anything, understand the product:
- Who uses this? Job title, technical sophistication, frequency of use
- What's their primary task? The one thing they do most
- What's their mental model? What existing tools do they compare this to?
- What do they fear? Data loss, mistakes, slowness, confusion?
- What do they celebrate? Task completion, insight discovery, efficiency
Answers shape every design decision. A data-dense analytics tool for analysts looks different from a simple task manager for non-technical users.
Craft Foundations
Spacing System
Establish a base unit (4px or 8px) and use only multiples:
4px — micro (icon gaps, tight inline spacing)
8px — xs (form field internal padding)
12px — sm (compact card padding)
16px — md (standard component padding)
24px — lg (section internal spacing)
32px — xl (component separation)
48px — 2xl (section separation)
64px — 3xl (major section breaks)
Never use arbitrary values. padding: 13px is a design mistake.
Color Architecture
Structure: Primary palette + Semantic palette
Neutral: 50/100/200/300/400/500/600/700/800/900/950
Accent: 50/100/200/300/400/500/600/700/800/900
Success: green scale
Warning: yellow/amber scale
Error: red scale
Info: blue scale
For SaaS/tools: neutral-heavy palette with single saturated accent. 90% of the UI should use neutrals.
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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 156 lines · 53 tokens per session scan A c4ca5f237a11
interface-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository ariadoss/superskills (12 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 1,342 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
