COG is an AI-assisted second brain that stores knowledge in Markdown files and uses agents, skills, and version control to evolve it over time. It helps people manage knowledge and contacts while supporting several coding-agent tools; the catalogue entries are COG’s skills, agents, instructions, rules, and plugin surfaces.
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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
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 →
- medium Agent Snooping · line 6 Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.
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 | $0.00121 | $0.00208 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00060 | $0.00104 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00042 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00021 |
Grade A, and why
product-ui-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 12d 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
Read .claude/skills/product-ui-taste/SKILL.md and execute it exactly as written — that file is the authoritative
playbook. Then follow .agents/rules/cog.md.
Antigravity substitution: where the playbook delegates to a .claude/agents/<name>
worker, invoke .agents/agents/<name>.md via invoke_subagent instead.
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.

product-ui-taste is a skill published in the GitHub repository huytieu/COG-second-brain (1,182 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 121 tokens to every session and 208 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-08-30.

Triggers on keywords: prototype, design, UI prototype, landing page, dashboard, form design, human-agentic, had, mockup…
prototype-web
A clickable, high-fidelity web product prototype with navigation, a hero section, feature cards, steps, social proof, and optional pricing. It is designed to resemble a finished landing page while remaining a prototype.
saas-landing
A single-page SaaS landing page for a software product, with sections such as the hero, features, customer proof, pricing, FAQs, and a call to action. SaaS means software delivered online, usually by subscription.
vercel-composition-patterns
React composition patterns that scale. Use when refactoring components with boolean prop proliferation, building flexible component libraries, or designing reusable APIs. Triggers on tasks involving compound components, render props, context providers, or component architecture. Includes React 19 API changes.
readable-measure
Set line length and measure for comfortable reading across type sizes and breakpoints. Use when tuning body text. Covers measure only — for the full size and weight scale, use typography-scale.
spacing-system
Create a spacing scale from a base unit with rules for when each step applies. Use when standardising padding and margins. For page-level columns and gutters, use layout-grid.
