render-document-view

A skill for turning a structured document proposal into a checklist, evidence view, action plan, or machine-readable output. An Expression is the structured source document it expects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create human review documents, action checklists, evidence matrices, or deterministic JSON projections.
Why use it?
It helps people inspect or act on an existing proposal without losing its evidence, limitations, or unresolved issues.

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

render-document-view 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

Render Document View

Render a bounded projection of an existing Expression. Do not use a view as a replacement for its immutable semantic source.

Workflow

  1. Confirm that the input is an Expression envelope. If it is raw prose or an unstructured need, use compose-document-system first.
  2. Name the stakeholder and concern.
  3. Call validate_document_expression.
  4. Stop on integrity errors. For a consequential HUMAN_ACTION view, also stop when semantic assertions are absent or fail; warnings may remain visible in a draft HUMAN_REVIEW view.
  5. Select one view:
    • HUMAN_REVIEW: full proposal with epistemic labels and limitations;
    • HUMAN_ACTION: action-relevant authority, roles, states, transitions, requirements, gates, exceptions, and handoffs;
    • MACHINE: canonical JSON projection for another deterministic consumer.
  6. Call render_document_view.
  7. Return the artifact separately from its manifest and validation receipt.

Boundaries

  • Never add facts that are absent from the Expression.
  • Never hide unresolved exceptions or missing evidence to improve appearance.
  • Never label a rendered proposal operative, persistent, or accepted.
  • Fail closed on HUMAN_ACTION when structural readiness is incomplete.
  • Keep element identifiers and source links stable across views.
  • Return to the Expression when a view reveals a missing or conflicting element.
  • Renderer-owned prose is limited to title, section labels, proposal banner, and limitation notice.

Output contract

Return the artifact, its content digest, source Expression identity, view manifest, validation receipt, included element IDs, and explicit omission reasons.

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

Changes

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.

render-document-view is a skill published in the GitHub repository bankszach/document-systems (0 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 423 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 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.
