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

404-page-generator 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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pages: 404 Error Page

Guides 404 error page design for UX, conversion recovery, and brand consistency.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1-2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Initial Assessment

Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read it for brand voice, key pages, and Section 12 (Visual Identity).

Identify:

  1. Site structure: Key pages to link (homepage, popular pages, search)
  2. Brand tone: Friendly, professional, playful
  3. Conversion goal: Recover lost visitors, drive to key pages

Best Practices

Clear Error Messaging

  • User-friendly: Neutral message explaining the page wasn't found
  • Optional 404 display: Can show "404" but avoid blaming the user
  • Empathetic tone: Acknowledge the error gracefully; turn frustration into opportunity

Navigation and Redirection

Element Purpose
Site navigation Header/footer so users know they're still on your site
Search Help users find what they need
Popular pages Links to homepage, features, pricing, blog
Similar URLs Suggest corrections for common typos
Avoid auto-redirect Unless confident of user intent

Design and Branding

  • Consistent design: Same header, footer, colors as rest of site (brand-visual-generator)
  • Avoid confusion: Users should not think they've left your domain
  • Mobile responsive: Test on all devices

Conversion Opportunities

404 pages can drive conversions by:

  • Showcasing popular products or features
  • Featuring testimonials or social proof
  • Offering special promotions or value
  • Linking to mobile app or newsletter

Technical

  • Track 404s: Monitor broken links, fix or redirect
  • Accessibility: Maintain WCAG standards
  • HTTP status: Ensure proper 404 response code

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.
