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

design-spec 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 1mo 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

Generate design spec from video: $ARGUMENTS

Steps

  1. Call MCP tool mcp__video-insight__design_spec with video_path = $0.
  2. Read keyframe images from keyframes_dir and burst frames from burst_frames_dir.
  3. Use color_tokens for semantic assignments (background/surface/accent/text).
  4. Use text_inventory for exact copy per scene.
  5. Use motion_inventory to document transitions.
  6. Infer components from keyframe images.
  7. Output a structured spec:
## Design Spec: <filename>

### Metadata
- Type / Duration / Scenes / Resolution

### Color Tokens
| Token | Hex | Usage |
|-------|-----|-------|
| background | #141414 | Page background |
| surface | #2a2a2a | Cards |
| accent | #c8921c | CTAs |
| text | #f0f0f0 | Primary text |

### Full Palette

### Components Detected

### Motion Catalogue

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.
