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 | $0.00023 | $0.00783 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00392 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00157 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00078 |
Grade A, and why
urgency-action 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 — 97 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Urgency & Action Animation
Create animations that motivate immediate response and communicate time-sensitivity.
Emotional Goal
Urgency creates a compelling need to act now. Action-driving animations capture attention, create momentum, and remove hesitation through dynamic, forward-moving motion.
Disney Principles for Urgency
Squash & Stretch
Sharp, impactful deformations. Quick squash on landing (15-25%) creates impact. Fast stretch during motion shows speed and force.
Anticipation
Very short or none (0-50ms). Urgency means no time to prepare. Direct, immediate action. Skip wind-up for instant response.
Staging
Aggressive focus on call-to-action. High contrast, motion isolation. Everything else should recede. Spotlight the urgent element.
Straight Ahead Action
Creates unpredictable, attention-grabbing movement. Use for pulsing, shaking, or urgent indicator animations.
Follow Through & Overlapping Action
Minimal follow-through. Sharp stops communicate decisiveness. No lingering—immediate resolution drives action.
Slow In & Slow Out
Asymmetric: fast start, abrupt end. ease-out with high initial velocity. cubic-bezier(0.0, 0, 0.2, 1) for aggressive acceleration.
Arc
Direct, linear paths for speed. Urgency takes the shortest route. Curved paths feel leisurely—use straight lines.
Secondary Action
Attention-grabbing pulses, glows, or shakes. Badge counters that bounce. Subtle but persistent motion draws eyes.
Timing
Fast and punchy (100-200ms). Rapid animations create energy. Pulse intervals: 1-2 seconds to maintain attention without annoyance.
Exaggeration
Moderate to high (20-40%). Amplified motion captures attention. Oversized bounces on notifications, emphasized shakes on errors.
Solid Drawing
Strong, bold forms. High-contrast shapes that command attention. No subtlety—clarity is paramount.
Appeal
Bold colors (red, orange). Strong contrast. Asymmetric, dynamic compositions that feel active, not static.
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.

urgency-action is a skill published in the GitHub repository dylantarre/animation-principles (80 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 783 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 2026-09-03.
