polycss

polycss is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from layoutit/polycss. It costs 52 tokens per session (2,529 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A library for displaying 3D polygon models as ordinary web-page elements transformed with CSS. It works with vanilla JavaScript, React, and Vue, and supports several model formats and interactive scene features.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, porting, debugging, or explaining PolyCSS scenes, including models, primitive shapes, lighting, shadows, controls, animation, and polygon interaction.
Why use it?
It lets developers build browser-based 3D scenes without relying on WebGL or a continuously redrawn canvas.

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

polycss 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.

PolyCSS — DOM 3D Rendering

PolyCSS renders 3D polygon meshes as real DOM elements transformed with CSS matrix3d(...). No WebGL, no canvas-per-frame. It supports OBJ/MTL, STL, glTF/GLB, VOX, generated primitives, colors, textures, dynamic lighting, shadows, controls, selection, animation, and per-polygon interaction.

Use native PolyCSS when authoring PolyCSS-first scenes. Use the Three.js parity API when porting Three.js code or generating code from Three-shaped examples.

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.
