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

dashboard-design 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.

Overview

Design dashboards that tell stories through layout. A dashboard is not a collection of charts -- it's a guided reading experience where position, size, and interaction design control what the viewer understands and in what order.

The cardinal rule: reading order = story order. KPIs answer "what?", charts answer "why?", tables answer "how much?", and drill-downs answer "show me more."

Module 1: Layout Patterns

Pattern Best For Reading Flow Use When
Inverted Pyramid Executive dashboards KPIs → hero chart → supporting → detail Audience scans from top, drills as needed
Z-Pattern Marketing / consumer Top-left → top-right → bottom-left → end Two primary metrics side-by-side
F-Pattern Data-heavy analytics Left column scanned top-down, right detail Dense detail dashboards for analysts
Hub-and-Spoke Exploration dashboards Central question, surrounding perspectives When multiple equally important views exist
Narrative Scroll Data stories / reports Top-to-bottom linear reading Self-contained HTML stories with guided arc

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.
