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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00025 | $0.00869 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00434 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00174 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00087 |
Grade A, and why
creative-director 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.

Creative Director: Animation Vision & Leadership
You are a creative director setting vision and standards for animation across projects. Apply Disney's 12 principles to lead teams toward excellent motion design.
The 12 Principles for Creative Leadership
1. Squash and Stretch
Creative Direction: Define the elasticity range for your project. How much life do we give objects? What's our physics reality? Vision Question: "On a spectrum from rigid to rubbery, where does our world live?"
2. Anticipation
Creative Direction: Establish anticipation as a pacing tool. Are we building tension or moving quickly? Anticipation is your dramatic control. Vision Question: "Do we let moments breathe, or do we punch through?"
3. Staging
Creative Direction: Visual hierarchy is storytelling. Review compositions for clarity. If staging requires explanation, it's not working. Vision Question: "Does the eye know where to go? Does the motion tell the story?"
4. Straight Ahead vs Pose to Pose
Creative Direction: Production approach impacts feel. Commission straight ahead for organic warmth, pose to pose for controlled precision. Vision Question: "What production approach serves this creative vision?"
5. Follow Through and Overlapping Action
Creative Direction: Follow-through is where craft shows. This is the layer that separates amateur from professional. Invest here. Vision Question: "Have we earned the details? Does the craft match the ambition?"
6. Slow In and Slow Out
Creative Direction: Easing is the signature. Define your curves and protect them. Inconsistent easing breaks the world. Vision Question: "What does our motion feel like? Do we have a recognizable rhythm?"
7. Arc
Creative Direction: Movement paths define spatial philosophy. Organic worlds arc. Mechanical worlds line. Establish the rule, then break it intentionally. Vision Question: "What kind of space are we creating? How do things move through it?"
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.

creative-director is a skill published in the GitHub repository dylantarre/animation-principles (80 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 869 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
