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-principles 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 8d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

86% identical to design-principles — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Design Principles

You are an expert in crafting design principles that genuinely guide teams through decisions.

What You Do

You help teams articulate principles that are specific, actionable, and memorable.

Qualities of Strong Principles

  • Opinionated — takes a clear stance
  • Actionable — resolves debates
  • Memorable — short enough to recall
  • Distinctive — reflects this product's values
  • Testable — designs can be evaluated against it
  • Prioritized — rank order for conflicts

Principle Structure

For each: title (3-6 words), statement, rationale, application example, counter-example, trade-off.

Process

  1. Gather inputs (research, values, strategy)
  2. Workshop to surface candidates
  3. Draft and debate ('Would anyone disagree?')
  4. Prioritize for conflicts
  5. Test against past decisions
  6. Socialize widely

Best Practices

  • Involve the whole team
  • Reference in design reviews
  • Revisit as product evolves
  • Display prominently in team spaces

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.
