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

border-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 5d 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.

What it actually says

Border Craft

Borders as Information

Borders separate, group, contain, and emphasize. They carry meaning:

  • Thin (1px): Subtle separation, table cells, list dividers
  • Medium (2px): Emphasis, active states, selected items
  • Thick (3-4px): Strong emphasis, section dividers, brand accent

Border Styles

Style Use Avoid
Solid Default for everything N/A
Dashed Drag targets, placeholder areas Decoration
Dotted Input suggestions, optional boundaries Heavy use
Double Editorial emphasis, retro/classic feel UI components

Alternatives to Borders

  • Background color change
  • Spacing/gap increase
  • Shadow (creates depth instead of line)
  • Indent (hierarchy through position)

Border Radius Scale

--radius-none: 0px;      /* Sharp, editorial, industrial */
--radius-sm: 4px;        /* Subtle softening */
--radius-md: 8px;        /* Standard UI */
--radius-lg: 12px;       /* Cards, containers */
--radius-xl: 16px;       /* Large components */
--radius-full: 9999px;   /* Pills, avatars */

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.
