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 | $0.00048 | $0.01034 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00517 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00207 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00103 |
Grade A, and why
craft 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 3d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 95 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Frontend Design
Create distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces that avoid generic "AI slop" aesthetics. Implement real working code with exceptional attention to aesthetic details and creative choices.
When This Skill Runs
- Auto-stacked (normal): when
tn:compassortn:assembledetects frontend work via the Frontend Detection Rules (page/component/UI/layout/style, React/Vue/CSS/Tailwind, form/button/modal, etc. — full keyword list lives intn:compass). In this mode it runs during the implementation phase of an existing path, then returns to the caller. - On demand: invoke directly as
tn:craft(through your host's skill mechanism; users may also trigger it from the CLI). Use this for "just design me a page" requests that skip the spec flow.
craft is a domain skill — it never stands alone as a path; it stacks onto implementation and returns to its caller.
Core Principle
BOLD AESTHETIC CHOICES + METICULOUS EXECUTION = MEMORABLE INTERFACES.
No generic AI aesthetics. Every design must be intentional and distinctive.
Steps
Step 1: Design Thinking
Before coding, understand the context and commit to a BOLD aesthetic direction:
- Purpose: What problem does this interface solve? Who uses it?
- Tone: Pick an extreme: brutally minimal, maximalist chaos, retro-futuristic, organic/natural, luxury/refined, playful/toy-like, editorial/magazine, brutalist/raw, art deco/geometric, soft/pastel, industrial/utilitarian, etc.
- Constraints: Technical requirements (framework, performance, accessibility)
- Differentiation: What makes this UNFORGETTABLE? What's the one thing someone will remember?
CRITICAL: Choose a clear conceptual direction and execute it with precision. Bold maximalism and refined minimalism both work — the key is intentionality, not intensity.
Step 2: Implement
Produce working code (HTML/CSS/JS, React, Vue, etc.) that is:
- Production-grade and functional
- Visually striking and memorable
- Cohesive with a clear aesthetic point-of-view
- Meticulously refined in every detail
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.

craft is a skill published in the GitHub repository devnomad-byte/techneering (13 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 1,034 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
