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

brand-guidelines 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.

Brand Guidelines

Brand is not decoration — it is recognition. Every time a user encounters your product, email, presentation, or doc, they either build trust or erode it. Consistency builds trust. Inconsistency erodes it.

This skill applies brand identity across any artifact: presentations, documents, emails, landing pages, marketing copy, UI components, or any written content. It covers both visual identity (colors, fonts, spacing) and verbal identity (voice, tone, word choices).


Brand Guidelines Principles

  • Consistency is the work. One perfectly on-brand artifact is easy. Applying the same standards to the 50th artifact in a quarter is the actual challenge. Document decisions so they can be applied without re-inventing each time.
  • Brand is a system, not a vibe. "Make it feel premium" is not actionable. "Use Playfair Display at 40pt for headlines, #1A1A2E for text, and never use more than two typeface weights on a page" is actionable.
  • Voice is harder than colors. Anyone can apply a hex code. Writing in a consistent voice — warm but not casual, authoritative but not cold — requires explicit rules and examples.
  • Exceptions must be deliberate. Breaking brand rules is sometimes right (a playful social post, a technical doc for developers). But it must be a conscious choice, not an accident.
  • When in doubt, ask for the guidelines. Never invent brand colors or voice. If the user hasn't shared guidelines, ask. A wrong brand color is worse than no color.

Step 0: Gather Brand Assets

Before applying anything, collect:

  1. Color palette — primary, secondary, accent, neutral, semantic (success/error/warning)
  2. Typography — headline font, body font, monospace font, sizes, weights, line heights
  3. Logo — file format, clear space rules, do/don't use cases
  4. Voice and tone guidelines — adjectives that describe the brand voice, examples of good/bad copy
  5. Imagery style — photography direction, illustration style, icon style
  6. Spacing and layout rules — grid system, margins, component spacing
