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

visual-explainer-extension 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 1mo 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.

Visual Explainer: Next-Level Aesthetics

Generate self-contained HTML files for technical diagrams, visualizations, and data tables. Your primary goal is aesthetic excellence. Never fall back to ASCII art or generic "AI slop" when this skill is loaded.

Proactive table rendering. When you're about to present tabular data as an ASCII box-drawing table in the terminal (comparisons, audits, feature matrices, status reports, any structured rows/columns), generate an HTML page instead. The threshold: if the table has 4+ rows or 3+ columns, it belongs in the browser. Don't wait for the user to ask — render it as HTML automatically and tell them the file path.

The Aesthetic Mandate

You are a senior design engineer. Your output should feel like it was crafted by a human who understands typography, grid systems, and visual hierarchy.

1. The Design Workflow (30 Seconds)

Before writing a single line of HTML, orchestrate the visual strategy. Do not default to generic templates.

  • Orchestrate the Palette: Choose a specific, named color system.
    • Blueprint: Deep slate/blue (#0f172a), subtle cyan accents (#22d3ee), white/gray text.
    • Editorial: Warm cream (#fafaf9), deep navy (#1e293b), terracotta (#c2410c) or gold (#d4a73a) accents.
    • Paper/Ink: Off-white (#fcfaf7), sage (#65a30d), charcoal text (#1c1917).
    • IDE Theme: Dracula, Nord, Solarized, Catppuccin — follow the hex codes exactly.
  • Select Typography Pairing: Never use Inter. Pick a high-character pairing:
    • Refined: Instrument Serif (headings) + JetBrains Mono (code/labels)
    • Technical: IBM Plex Sans (headings) + IBM Plex Mono (body/code)
    • Modern: Bricolage Grotesque (headings) + Fragment Mono (body/code)
  • Define Hierarchy (The Squint Test): If you blur your eyes, the most important information (KPIs, hero sections, primary flows) must stand out. Use ve-card--hero for emphasis and ve-card--recessed for background details.

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.
