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

canva-classroom-helper 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 11d 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.

Canva Classroom Helper — Lesson Plan to Deck

Transform a lesson plan into a clear, teachable presentation: learning goals on screen, logical flow, and slide-by-speaker-notes so the teacher can run the class from one deck.

Workflow

  1. Get the lesson plan source (always do this first — no substitute checklist)

    • Do not open with a generic two-part prompt (e.g. “paste the plan” and then “describe the topic and key points”). The lesson plan already carries topic and key points; asking twice is redundant and skips this step’s real work (text vs Canva link vs search).
    • If the user has not yet given a source, ask one short question that matches this step only, for example: Paste your full lesson plan here, or give a Canva design link or design ID, or the exact title to search in Canva; if the plan is in a file, paste the contents or give a path you can read. Then proceed along the branch below.
    • If the user provides the lesson plan as text in chat, use that as the full source
    • If the user provides a Canva design ID directly (the identifier from a design URL—typically starts with D, e.g. DABcd1234ef), use that value as design_id with Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its text content (same as reading from a link, without URL parsing)
    • If the user provides a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/DAG.../...), extract the design ID from the path and use Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its text content
    • If the user references a Canva doc or design by name, use Canva:search-designs to find it, then Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents
  2. List available brand kits

    • Call Canva:list-brand-kits to retrieve the user's brand kits
    • If only one brand kit exists, use it automatically without asking
    • If multiple brand kits exist, present the options and ask the user to select one (school or district brand, if relevant)
  3. Generate the presentation

    • Call Canva:generate-design with:
      • design_type: "presentation"
      • brand_kit_id: the selected brand kit ID
      • query: follow the Lesson plan → deck query format below (always a multi-slide deck—see opening lines of that format)
    • Show the generated candidates (thumbnails/previews as returned) to the user

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.
