canon-density

canon-density is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Dragoon0x/canon. It costs 62 tokens per session (783 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for offering compact, default, and comfortable interface spacing while keeping text sizes readable.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define spacing, row heights, padding, and control sizes for dashboards, tables, admin tools, and content-heavy interfaces.
Why use it?
It lets data-heavy screens fit more information without shrinking text, while reading-focused screens can have more room.

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-density 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 7d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 84 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CANON · Density

Density is spacing, not font size. Changing density means scaling gaps, padding, and row heights while keeping type legible.

Three density modes

Mode Use Spacing multiplier
Compact Power users, data tables, dashboards, admin tools 0.75×
Default Most apps
Comfortable Content-heavy, reading-focused, onboarding 1.25×

What scales

Property Compact Default Comfortable
Row height 32px 48px 56px
Card padding 12px 16px 24px
Button height 32px 40px 48px
Input height 32px 40px 48px
Gap between items 8px 16px 24px
Section spacing 24px 40px 56px

What does NOT scale

  • Font sizes. 14px body stays 14px across all densities. Compact reads the same text; it just packs it tighter.
  • Touch targets on mobile. 44px floor stays, regardless of density mode. Density modes are desktop-only unless you're building for stylus input.
  • Icon sizes. Icons stay at their grid-aligned size (16, 20, 24px).
  • Border radius. Stays consistent.
  • Line height. Governed by type size, not density.

Implementation — CSS custom properties

:root {
  --density: 1;
  --space-unit: calc(8px * var(--density));
}
[data-density="compact"]  { --density: 0.75; }
[data-density="comfortable"] { --density: 1.25; }

.card { padding: calc(var(--space-unit) * 2); }
.row { min-height: calc(var(--space-unit) * 6); }

Or use discrete scales where continuous math creates half-pixel values.

User control

  • Toggle in settings or toolbar.
  • Persist in localStorage.
  • Per-view override OK (table might be compact while the page is default).
  • Default is "default." Don't auto-compact on small screens — that's responsive design, not density.

Anti-patterns

Anti-pattern Why it fails
Shrinking font size for compact Illegibility; density is spacing, not type
Compact mode on mobile with touch targets < 44px WCAG 2.5.5 violation
Comfortable mode that doubles spacing everywhere Wastes real estate, looks broken
No user toggle Forces one density on everyone
Mixing density modes within a single component Visual incoherence

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.

canon-density is a skill published in the GitHub repository Dragoon0x/canon (5 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 783 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
