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

subdomain-deploy scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2 executable files (references/middleware-multi-user.ts, references/middleware.ts), 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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

After deploy, smoke-test against the **custom domain**, not the `*.vercel.app` URL — see Gotchas. If your local resolver hasn't picked up the new subdomain yet, force it via curl `--resolve`:

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 250 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Personal Subdomain Deploy (austinfox.com)

Stand up a new personal project at <name>.austinfox.com on Vercel with the right access pattern and storage strategy for the project. This skill is for Austin's personal projects only — not client work, not company projects.

Non-Negotiables

These are the rules that distinguish this workflow from generic "deploy to Vercel":

  1. One Vercel project per subdomain. Never combine multiple personal projects into a single Vercel project, never use path-based routing across them. Each subdomain gets its own GitHub repo, its own Vercel project, its own env vars, its own analytics.
  2. Default stack: Bun + Vite + React 19 + TypeScript. Bun is the runtime/package manager; Vite is the dev server/bundler — they do different jobs and both are needed. Add Tailwind v4 (via @tailwindcss/vite) when styling is non-trivial. Don't reach for Next.js for static personal projects.
  3. Auth is custom Edge middleware, never Vercel's built-in Password Protection. Vercel's feature requires the Advanced Deployment Protection add-on (~$150/mo). The middleware patterns in references/ are no-ops when their env vars are unset, so they cost nothing during local dev.
  4. Wildcard DNS is already set on Porkbun (*.austinfox.com → cname.vercel-dns.com). New subdomains require zero DNS work — vercel domains add is sufficient.
  5. Private GitHub repo by default. Personal projects are private unless the user explicitly says otherwise.

When to Use This Skill

Activate when the user's request implies creating a brand-new project on an austinfox.com subdomain. Strong signals:

  • "deploy this" / "ship this" + the project is local-only and has no Vercel link yet
  • "put it on austinfox.com" / "set up <name>.austinfox.com"
  • "spin up a new personal project"
  • Mentions of austinfox.com or a subdomain like lettera.austinfox.com

Do NOT use this skill when:

  • The project is already linked to a Vercel project — in that case use the generic deploy-to-vercel skill.
  • The user wants to deploy to a non-austinfox.com domain — use the generic flow.
  • The user is deploying a redeploy / preview / hotfix to an existing project — use the generic flow.
