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

canon-buttons 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 9d 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 — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CANON · Buttons

A button is a verb. If the element navigates, it's a link. This distinction is not cosmetic — screen readers announce them differently, middle-click behaves differently, right-click behaves differently.

Task Element
Submits form, triggers action, toggles state, opens modal, plays media <button>
Navigates to a URL, scrolls to an anchor, opens new tab <a href>

Styling doesn't change semantics. A <div onclick> is never correct.

Hierarchy — one primary per screen

Level Appearance Rule
Primary Filled, brand color One per screen. The single most important action.
Secondary Outlined or tonal fill Alternative action. Cancel, back, alt-submit.
Tertiary / Ghost Text only, no border Low-priority. Breadcrumb actions, dismiss.
Destructive Red filled or red outlined Delete, revoke. Appears only when the action is available.

If you feel you need two primaries, one of them isn't primary.

Sizing

Size Height Padding-X Font size Use
XS 24px 8px 12px Inline table actions only
SM 32px 12px 13px Toolbars, dense UIs
MD 40px 16px 14px Default.
LG 48px 20px 16px Hero CTAs, mobile-primary
XL 56px 24px 18px Marketing only

Mobile floor: 44×44px hit target. Below that, violates Apple HIG and fails WCAG 2.5.5.

Required states

A button must look visibly different in all six states. Missing any = incomplete.

  1. Default — resting
  2. Hovercursor: pointer, subtle elevation or fill change
  3. Active — press feedback (transform: scale(0.98) or filter darken)
  4. Focus-visible — 2–3px outline offset 2px, contrast 3:1 minimum
  5. Disabled — 40–50% opacity, cursor: not-allowed, no hover change
  6. Loading — spinner replaces label OR sits beside it, button stays the same width

Loading state

  <span class="spinner" aria-hidden="true"></span>
  <span>Saving…</span>

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.
