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

adobe-illustrator-scripting 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.

Adobe Illustrator Scripting

Expert guidance for automating Adobe Illustrator through ExtendScript (JavaScript/JSX). This skill covers the Illustrator scripting object model, all major API objects, code patterns, and best practices for writing production-quality .jsx scripts.

Bundled Assets

  • references/object-model-quick-reference.md: Use this as a quick lookup for the Illustrator scripting object model, common document and page item types, and related DOM concepts while writing or debugging scripts.
  • scripts/: Contains example Illustrator automation scripts you can use as starting points or implementation patterns for common tasks such as document manipulation, exports, batch processing, and DOM usage. Review and adapt these examples when you need working JSX patterns or want to compare behavior while debugging.

When to Use This Skill

  • Writing new Illustrator automation scripts (.jsx or .js files)
  • Debugging or fixing existing Illustrator ExtendScript code
  • Manipulating documents, layers, page items, paths, text, or colors programmatically
  • Batch-processing Illustrator files or generating artwork from data
  • Exporting documents to various formats (PDF, SVG, PNG, EPS, etc.)
  • Working with the Illustrator DOM (Application, Document, Layer, PathItem, TextFrame, etc.)
  • Creating data-driven graphics using variables and datasets
  • Automating print workflows with scripted print options

Prerequisites

  • Adobe Illustrator CC or later installed
  • Basic JavaScript knowledge (ExtendScript is ES3-based with Adobe extensions)
  • Scripts are executed via File > Scripts > Other Scripts, the Scripts menu, or placed in the Startup Scripts folder
  • The ExtendScript Toolkit (ESTK) or any text editor can be used to write .jsx files

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.
