canvas

canvas is a skill for Claude Code from hoainho/podium-mcp. It costs 61 tokens per session (462 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A control tool for interactive canvas and WebGL interfaces, where apps draw buttons and objects on a graphical surface instead of using ordinary web-page elements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Listing canvas objects, resolving a natural-language instruction such as closing a popup, and tapping the matching object on a simulator or device.
Why use it?
It lets an agent inspect the live scene and identify targets without relying on screenshots or image recognition. It avoids tapping when the intended target is ambiguous.

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

canvas 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 10d 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

Using podium, act on the canvas/WebGL UI of the WebView app on simulator/device $ARGUMENTS (format: <UDID> <intent>, e.g. <UDID> close the popup). Parse the first whitespace token as the UDID; everything after it is the INTENT.

No screenshots, no vision — drive the live scene graph as DOM-like elements.

  1. canvas_inspect with the UDID — confirm a framework was detected and list the addressable objects. If framework is unknown or count is 0, report the returned hint (expose the framework root on window, or fall back to a screenshot + tap_with_fallback) and stop.
  2. If the intent is list or empty, present the objects as a markdown table (name / text / type / x,y) and stop.
  3. canvas_resolve with the UDID and the intent — show the ranked candidates with their reasons and the confidentEnough flag.
    • If confidentEnough is false, do NOT tap. Present the top candidates and ask the user which one (fail-closed by design — two equally-good targets must not be blind-tapped).
  4. If confidentEnough is true, call canvas_tap with the UDID and the intent — then report what was tapped (name/text), the screen coordinates, and the backend used.
  5. Summarize: framework detected, target chosen + the evidence behind it, and the tap result.

Notes:

  • Requires an inspectable WKWebView (isInspectable=true; debug/staging builds).
  • Canvas tools NEVER use vision; vision is a separate opt-in path (PODIUM_ALLOW_VISION=1).
  • Honors PODIUM_DISABLE_WEBVIEW_EVAL=1 (the tools refuse to inject the bridge).

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.
