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-forms 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 2mo 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.

CANON · Forms

Forms are the highest-stakes interface in any product. A confusing form costs conversions in marketing, costs data in apps, and costs trust everywhere. Most form failures are predictable.

Quantified Rules

Field Structure

<div class="field">
  <label for="email">Email address</label>
  <input
    id="email"
    name="email"
    type="email"
    autocomplete="email"
    required
    aria-describedby="email-hint"
  />
  <span id="email-hint" class="hint">We'll never share your email.</span>
</div>
Element Required Reason
<label> with for Yes Click target + screen reader
id matching for Yes WCAG 1.3.1
name Yes (for submission) Server identification
type Yes Native validation + mobile keyboard
autocomplete Yes (where applicable) Browser fill, password managers
required If required Native validation
aria-describedby If hint or error SR announces context

Label Placement

Placement When Source
Above input (block) Default. Best scan speed and mobile-friendly. Nielsen Norman
Inline left Settings panels with short fixed labels Acceptable
Floating label Material 3 style OK; preserve label always-visible at zoom
Placeholder as label Never WCAG 3.3.2 violation

Default to labels above inputs. Closer scan path, more mobile space, easier to align.

Label-to-Input Gap

4–8px between label and its input.

Less = cramped. More breaks proximity grouping (Gestalt).

Field-to-Field Gap

16–24px between fields.

Tighter feels rushed. Wider breaks form rhythm.

Input Sizing

Property Value Source
Height 44–48px (touch) iOS HIG, Material 3
Padding 12px V, 16px H Material 3
Font-size 16px minimum on mobile Below 16px triggers iOS zoom-on-focus
Border 1px solid, contrast >= 3:1 WCAG 1.4.11
Border radius 4–8px Match other components
Min width 200px (single-line) Usability

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.
