design-information-architecture

design-information-architecture is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from j4flmao/agent-skills. It costs 67 tokens per session (5,592 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for organizing the content and navigation of a website or application. Information architecture describes what goes where, how items are labeled, and how users move between them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create sitemaps, content hierarchies, taxonomies, navigation plans, and user flows.
Why use it?
It helps prevent confusing menus, poor labeling, and content that users cannot find. It turns scattered information into a structure based on user tasks.

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-information-architecture 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 9d 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.

Information Architecture

Purpose

Design information architecture: organize content, create navigation systems, define taxonomies, design user flows, and ensure findability across digital products. The goal is to help users find information and complete tasks with minimum cognitive load by creating intuitive, user-centered content structures.

Agent Protocol

Trigger

Exact user phrases: "information architecture" "sitemap" "user flow" "content hierarchy" "navigation" "content organization" "labeling" "taxonomy" "card sorting" "tree testing" "findability" "IA audit".

Input Context

  • What type of product or website is being designed?
  • Who are the primary user segments and their information needs?
  • What content exists and what content is planned?
  • What are the key user tasks and goals?
  • What are the business objectives (conversion, engagement, retention)?
  • What is the current IA (if redesigning) and its known issues?
  • What competitive or reference IAs exist?

Output Artifact

Information architecture specification with content audit, sitemap, navigation design, taxonomy, and user flows.

Response Format

## Information Architecture Plan
### Content Audit Summary
Total pages: {N} | Gaps: {list} | Duplicates: {list}

### Sitemap Structure
Level 1: {category} → Level 2: {subcategory} → Level 3: {page}

### Navigation System
Primary: {top / side / hub-and-spoke}
Secondary: {utility / breadcrumb / footer}
Contextual: {cross-links / related content / tags}

### Taxonomy
Type: {flat / hierarchical / faceted / tags}
Categories: {list}
Labels: {list}

No preamble. No postamble. No explanations.

Completion Criteria

  • Content audit completed with inventory and gap analysis
  • User research conducted to understand mental models
  • Card sorting conducted (open or closed) with results analyzed
  • Tree testing conducted with findability rate measured
  • Sitemap created showing full content hierarchy
  • Navigation system designed (primary, secondary, utility)
  • Taxonomy defined with labels and categorization rules
  • User flows documented for key tasks
  • IA validated with usability testing
  • Responsive/adaptive navigation behavior defined

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.
