Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00113 | $0.05241 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00056 | $0.02620 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00023 | $0.01048 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00524 |
Grade A, and why
top-design 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 4d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to top-design — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Top-Design: Award-Winning Digital Experiences
Create websites and applications at the level of world-class digital agencies. This skill embodies the craft of studios that consistently win FWA, Awwwards, CSS Design Awards, and Webby Awards.
Core Principle
Every pixel is intentional -- nothing default, nothing accidental. The agencies you are emulating -- Locomotive, Studio Freight, AREA 17, Active Theory, Hello Monday -- share a common DNA: typography IS the design, motion creates emotion, white space is a weapon, and performance is non-negotiable (60fps or nothing).
The foundation: The gap between 8/10 and 10/10 is not skill -- it is intention. An 8/10 has good typography and smooth animations; a 10/10 has typography that makes you gasp and animations that tell stories. Every decision must answer: "Does this serve the experience, or is it just filling space?"
Scoring
Goal: 10/10. Rate any digital experience 0-10 using the rubric below -- a 10/10 would be featured on Awwwards. Always state the current score and the specific improvements needed to reach 10/10.
Scoring Rubric
| Score | Level | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0-2 | Amateur | Default fonts, no hierarchy, generic layout, template feel |
| 3-4 | Basic | Decent typography, some hierarchy, but forgettable |
| 5-6 | Competent | Good fundamentals, clean execution, but lacks soul |
| 7-8 | Professional | Strong typography, intentional motion, clear POV |
| 9 | Exceptional | Signature moments, memorable details, near-flawless craft |
| 10 | World-class | Would win Awwwards SOTD, defines new standards |
Category Scoring (Each 0-10)
TYPOGRAPHY (Weight: 25%)
| Score | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 0-3 | System fonts, uniform scale, default tracking |
| 4-6 | Premium fonts, some scale contrast, basic hierarchy |
| 7-8 | Dramatic scale contrast (10:1+), perfect tracking, optical alignment |
| 9-10 | Typography IS the design -- gasping moments, custom/variable fonts, type as architecture |
What ships with it
5 files 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.
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.

top-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository chama-x/GroundRules (5 stars, last pushed 21d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 113 tokens to every session and 5,241 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to top-design, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
