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

prototype 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 106 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prototype

Generate 3 visually distinct, high-fidelity HTML/CSS UI components from a single text prompt, then serve them in a live browser gallery so the user can click through and pick a favorite. Each component adopts a unique design persona based on physical/material metaphors — producing genuinely different visual approaches, not just color swaps.

Quick Start

Parse $ARGUMENTS for the component description, optional --vary N flag, optional --dir <path>, and optional --continue flag.

  • If --continue is present, skip to Next-Turn Pick Capture.
  • If --vary N is present, skip to the Variation Workflow.
  • Otherwise, follow Phases 1-3 below in a single pass — do not pause between phases or ask for confirmation.

If the description is vague ("button", "form"), just generate. The value is speed. Interpret generously.

Phase 1: Style Direction

Think of 3 distinct design direction names using physical/material metaphors. Pattern: [Adjective] + [Material/Process] + [Form/Action].

Each metaphor should imply different CSS techniques — not just colors. See the materiality-to-CSS mapping in WORKFLOW.md.

Examples (invent your own):

  • "Asymmetrical Rectilinear Blockwork" (Grid-heavy, primary pigments)
  • "Grainy Risograph Layering" (feTurbulence grain, mix-blend-mode: multiply)
  • "Kinetic Wireframe Suspension" (thin lines, floating silhouettes)
  • "Spectral Prismatic Diffusion" (backdrop-filter, caustic refraction)

Phase 2: Artifact Generation

For each style, generate a complete, self-contained <!DOCTYPE html> page (100-300 lines):

  1. Materiality: the style metaphor drives every CSS choice
  2. Typography: Google Fonts via <link>, pair a bold sans with a refined monospace
  3. Motion: subtle CSS animations and hover transitions
  4. IP Safeguard: no artist names, brand names, or trademarks
  5. Layout: bold negative space, avoid generic card grids
  6. Content: realistic placeholder content, not lorem ipsum

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.
