These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

taste 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 11d 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.

High-Agency Frontend Skill

Authority References (shokunin improvement)

The rules in this skill are based on patterns observed across:

  • Linear, Vercel, Stripe, Notion — product UI
  • Apple Human Interface Guidelines
  • Material Design 3
  • Emil Kowalski's design engineering (Sonner, Vaul, animations.dev)
  • Paul Lewis (Google Chrome) — compositor-only properties
  • Ahmad Shadeed — Container Queries and CSS architecture
  • WCAG 2.2 — Accessibility guidelines
  • CSS Working Group — modern CSS features

1. ACTIVE BASELINE CONFIGURATION

  • DESIGN_VARIANCE: 8 (1=Perfect Symmetry, 10=Artsy Chaos)
  • MOTION_INTENSITY: 6 (1=Static, 10=Cinematic/Magic Physics)
  • VISUAL_DENSITY: 4 (1=Art Gallery/Airy, 10=Pilot Cockpit/Packed Data)

These are the standard baselines. ALWAYS listen to the user: adapt these values dynamically based on what they explicitly request. Use these values as global variables driving Sections 3 through 7.

2. DEFAULT ARCHITECTURE & CONVENTIONS

Framework & Interactivity

  • React or Next.js. Default to Server Components (RSC).
  • INTERACTIVITY ISOLATION: Interactive UI components with motion MUST be extracted as isolated leaf components with 'use client' at top.
  • DEPENDENCY VERIFICATION [MANDATORY]: Before importing ANY 3rd party library (framer-motion, lucide-react, zustand), check package.json. If missing, output npm install <package> before code. Never assume.

Styling

  • Use Tailwind CSS (v3/v4) for 90% of styling.
  • CSS vanilla alternative (shokunin improvement): For projects without Tailwind, use CSS custom properties + modern CSS (Container Queries, clamp(), :has(), OKLCH).
  • TAILWIND VERSION LOCK: Check package.json. No v4 syntax in v3 projects.
  • ANTI-EMOJI POLICY: NEVER use emojis in code, markup, text, or alt text. Replace with Phosphor, Lucide, or clean SVG primitives.

Responsiveness

  • Viewport Stability [CRITICAL]: NEVER h-screen. Always min-h-[100dvh] for iOS Safari.
  • Grid over Flex-Math: NEVER w-[calc(33%-1rem)]. Always CSS Grid grid-cols-3 gap-6.
  • Standardize breakpoints: sm(640), md(768), lg(1024), xl(1280).

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.
