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 | $0.00088 | $0.01301 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00035 | $0.00520 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00260 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00130 |
Grade A, and why
tell-template-craft 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 — 93 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Tell template craft (plumbing → designer corridors)
Token-efficient loop for templates. Do not invent layout plumbing from scratch. Do not restyle from named agencies. Two phases, always in this order:
| Phase | Source | Use for |
|---|---|---|
| A — Plumbing | Local peer checkout (research/plumbing-reference.local.json → localCheckout, or /tmp/learn-plumbing/reference) |
Working solutions: landmarks, sticky/opaque nav, focus-visible, reduced-motion, stacking/z-index, overflow, hero claim vs figure collision, state coverage, anti-AI-slop checks |
| B — Craft | Measured corpus + research/aggregate.json + docs/10_DESIGN_EVIDENCE.md |
Composition corridors from top designer / product pages (fold figure, inverse share, display, bleeds) — ids/categories only, never names or URLs in commits |
The peer daemon is not an aesthetic source. Peer theme packs and named studios must not appear in
committed code, comments, docs, or copy. Local study of designer GitHub template repos is allowed
for measurement and eye only; encode results as anonymised corridors (same as design-research-loop).
Never name the peer product in commits. Platform/MCP/auth adaptations: docs/11–docs/13.
When to run
- Creating a new
siteKind/ template / showcase offering - Fixing a visual bug (overlap, ghosting, empty band, clipped type)
- Improving an existing template until satisfactory
- Redesigning
/showcaseor Studio presentation of offerings
Phase A — peer plumbing (do this first)
- Reproduce the bug or blank feature with Playwright (
pnpm research:shots -- --page <id>or a local route screenshot). - Search the peer checkout for a solved pattern, not a look:
craft/anti-ai-slop.md,craft/typography*.md,craft/state-coverage.md,craft/accessibility-baseline.mddesign-templates/*only for structure/HTML landmarks / CSS stacking ideas
- Encode the fix in
@tell/design-skills(orapps/webfor showcase chrome) + add a gate inbasics-checklist.tswhen the failure is repeatable. - Prefer the smallest change that clears the plumbing failure. For labeled hero figures (studio/consumer): stack fold — opaque claim band in document flow, then the figure. Never absolutely overlay stage labels under readable type (Fieldmark collision). Soft-gradient overclaim is fine only when the underlayer has no competing ink.
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.

tell-template-craft is a skill published in the GitHub repository ashishpatill/tell-proof (2 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 1,301 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-09-03.
