ui-sound-design

ui-sound-design is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dannyjpwilliams/ui-sound-design-skill. It costs 71 tokens per session (3,258 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for designing sounds for website and application controls with browser audio tools such as Web Audio API and Tone.js. You describe the desired sound in ordinary language and receive code that can produce it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for clicks, hover sounds, toggle feedback, notifications, success and error tones, whooshes, and small reusable sound libraries.
Why use it?
It helps developers create interface sounds without already knowing audio synthesis or sound-engineering techniques.

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

ui-sound-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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (tools/analyze-sound.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

UI Sound Design

Translate plain-English sound descriptions into working Web Audio API code. No audio engineering background needed — describe what you want to hear, and this skill provides the synthesis knowledge to make it real.

Workflow

Every sound follows this loop: Describe → Generate → Listen → Refine (with optional Review for auditing existing code)

1. Describe

The user describes the sound in plain language. Ask clarifying questions using this framework:

Four questions before generating any sound:

  1. What triggers it? (click, hover, toggle, notification, transition, success, error)
  2. What's the emotional tone? (satisfying, subtle, urgent, playful, professional, minimal)
  3. How prominent should it be? (barely perceptible, noticeable, attention-grabbing)
  4. Any reference points? (iOS keyboard, Slack notification, macOS trash, game UI, "like a bubble popping")
  5. Have an audio reference file? If the user has a .wav or .mp3 file they want to match, direct them to run the analyzer:

What ships with it

7 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.

Changes

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.
