What is insta-cardnews?

A skill for creating Instagram photo card-news, meaning a series of portrait social-media cards. It makes up to 20 cards at 1080×1440 pixels, with one full-card photo and editable HTML or SVG text on each.

Use it to build an editable card proof and export individual PNGs for an Instagram carousel.

It keeps words, numbers, and charts sharp and changeable instead of baking them into the background image.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00098	$0.02261
Opus 5	$0.00049	$0.01130
Sonnet 5	$0.00020	$0.00452
Haiku 4.5	$0.00010	$0.00226

Security

Grade A, and why

insta-cardnews 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (export-cards.ps1), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

insta-cardnews — Instagram 3:4 photo card-news

Make an Instagram-feed card-news series: 1080×1440 px, 3:4 portrait, up to 20 cards (cover included). Every card is one dedicated, full-bleed photo with a single legibility filter and Korean text laid on top as real HTML/SVG. Output = an editable HTML proof plus carousel-ready per-card PNGs.

The one principle (inherited, then inverted)

이미지는 재료이고, HTML은 진실이다 — images are material; HTML is truth. Photos supply mood, texture, and background. Every word, number, and chart is real HTML/SVG — never baked into the image. This keeps cards editable, sharp at any zoom, and legible.

The inversion from raw5-deck: raw5-deck reuses 5 images across 30 landscape slides by cutting each into circles/arches/frames. This skill does the opposite — one purpose-built image per card. Because each image already fills its own card, the entire "cut an image into shapes" half of the design library is dropped. All that remains is the legibility-treatment family: lay a photo full-bleed, put one filter over it, and set Korean text so it reads. That makes the pattern much simpler than a deck.

What each card is (3 layers, always)

[ bg image ]        one photo, background-size:cover, filling 1080×1440
[ filter/scrim ]    ONE treatment from the kept family (wash / tone / blend / material / luma / halftone / paper-grain)
[ content ]         Korean headline + short body + footer — real HTML/SVG, padded, inside the safe zone

The 3 presets (pick ONE per series — this is what makes the carousel look like a set)

A · Dark Wash — full-bleed photo + dark scrim (material-image-card / dark tone / paper-grain), white text, one coral/red accent, dark LUT grade. Dramatic, impactful. Default.
B · Brand Tone — full-bleed photo + brand-color multiply overlay (tone-scene / neon), white text, brand accent, LUT toward the brand hue. Cohesive branded series.
C · Light Editorial — photo washed / luma-masked into a light text zone, navy/ink text on light, coral accent, light LUT. Report/editorial feel.

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.
