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

industrial-brutalist-ui 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.

SKILL: Industrial Brutalism & Tactical Telemetry UI

1. Skill Meta

Name: Industrial Brutalism & Tactical Telemetry Interface Engineering Description: Advanced proficiency in architecting web interfaces that synthesize mid-century Swiss Typographic design, industrial manufacturing manuals, and retro-futuristic aerospace/military terminal interfaces. This discipline requires absolute mastery over rigid modular grids, extreme typographic scale contrast, purely utilitarian color palettes, and the programmatic simulation of analog degradation (halftones, CRT scanlines, bitmap dithering). The objective is to construct digital environments that project raw functionality, mechanical precision, and high data density, deliberately discarding conventional consumer UI patterns.

2. Visual Archetypes

The design system operates by merging two distinct but highly compatible visual paradigms. Pick ONE per project and commit to it. Do not alternate or mix both modes within the same interface.

2.1 Swiss Industrial Print

Derived from 1960s corporate identity systems and heavy machinery blueprints.

  • Characteristics: High-contrast light modes (newsprint/off-white substrates). Reliance on monolithic, heavy sans-serif typography. Unforgiving structural grids outlined by visible dividing lines. Aggressive, asymmetric use of negative space punctuated by oversized, viewport-bleeding numerals or letterforms. Heavy use of primary red as an alert/accent color.

2.2 Tactical Telemetry & CRT Terminal

Derived from classified military databases, legacy mainframes, and aerospace Heads-Up Displays (HUDs).

  • Characteristics: Dark mode exclusivity. High-density tabular data presentation. Absolute dominance of monospaced typography. Integration of technical framing devices (ASCII brackets, crosshairs). Application of simulated hardware limitations (phosphor glow, scanlines, low bit-depth rendering).

3. Typographic Architecture

Typography is the primary structural and decorative infrastructure. Imagery is secondary. The system demands extreme variance in scale, weight, and spacing.

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.
