ss-pattern

A generator for composed user-interface patterns built from an existing StyleSeed design grammar and brand recipe. A pattern is a reusable arrangement of interface elements for a specific task.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating layouts such as summaries, workbench panels, task steps, reading sections, resource lists, canvases, and other defined interface patterns.
Why use it?
It keeps related screens consistent with the project’s established design rules instead of inventing a separate visual style for each pattern.

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

ss-pattern 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 2d 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.

UI Pattern Generator

Registry-first artifact boundary

When .styleseed/project.json and .styleseed/artifacts/index.json exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only .styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md and .styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use .styleseed/effective-rules.md only when no registry exists.

When NOT to use

  • For a single primitive component → use /ss-component
  • For a full mobile screen → use /ss-page
  • For an entire multi-page user flow → use /ss-flow
  • For design tokens and color/spacing decisions → use /ss-tokens

Pattern type: $0 Description: $ARGUMENTS

Available Pattern Types

Layout Patterns

  • focal-summary: one dominant state, briefing, artifact, or decision
  • panel-section: aligned workbench panel with related controls and evidence
  • flat-step: public-service task step with explicit labels, help, and recovery
  • reading-section: bounded prose, figure, caption, quote, or source group without app cards
  • resource-collection: rows, table, grid, or sequence selected by the recipe and user job
  • canvas-tools: focused artifact/canvas with quiet supporting tool groups

Data Display Patterns

  • data-table: Table with header and rows
  • detail-card: Key-value pair display
  • chart-card: Card wrapper for a Recharts chart
  • ranking-list: Numbered ranking with highlight

Interactive Patterns

  • action-sheet: Bottom sheet with action buttons
  • filter-bar: Horizontal filter/tab bar
  • search-header: Search input in header area

Instructions

  1. Read .styleseed/effective-rules.md and .styleseed/manifest.json. Resolve first when stale. Then inspect:

    • components/ui/ for available primitives
    • components/patterns/ for existing patterns
  2. Compose the pattern from existing components — DO NOT recreate primitives.

  3. Follow the selected recipe rather than one default card language:

    • Use ss-pattern-surface only when containment is earned.
    • Use ss-page-gutter or ss-page-padding instead of hardcoded universal gutters.
    • Use ss-pattern-inset, ss-pattern-control, and ss-pattern-icon for recipe-aware shape.
    • Public-service and editorial recipes usually prefer flat flow, rules, and whitespace.
    • Enterprise/developer recipes prefer aligned panels, rows, tables, and compact controls.
    • Calm-consumer may use soft groups; expressive-brand must add a product-specific composition.

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.

ss-pattern is a skill published in the GitHub repository bitjaru/styleseed (928 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 21 tokens to every session and 692 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
