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

render-carousels 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 26d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 57 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Produce multi-slide carousel images from HTML/CSS templates using Playwright headless rendering.

Supported Templates

Pass the key to render_carousel.py --template (argparse rejects anything outside this list; --list-templates prints it).

data 6 Data-driven infographics data-infographic-6slide.html
quote 1 Single quote cards quote-card-single.html

Process

  1. Select template based on post's carousel_type
  2. For each slide:
    • Inject content (title, body, data points, statistics)
    • Apply brand colors via CSS variables (--brand-primary, --brand-secondary, etc.)
    • Apply brand fonts
    • If slide needs background image: compose an existing brand asset (free), or generate one via image-compositor: a generated background is a paid call, so it needs an approved quote first (compose-creative, "Quote, then go"), and the compositor refuses without one
  3. Render each slide via Playwright (headless Chromium → PNG, 1080x1080)
  4. Show first and last slide to user for approval
  5. Compile all slides into PDF (for LinkedIn document upload)
  6. Resize slides for other platforms if needed

Rules

  • First slide = hook/title with brand identity
  • Last slide = CTA with brand logo and contact info
  • Max text per slide: 40 words (LinkedIn) | 25 words (Instagram)
  • All slides use brand fonts and colors from brand-config.json
  • Slide dimensions: 1080x1080 default (configurable per brand)

Scripts Used

  • render_carousel.py — Playwright HTML→PNG rendering

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.
