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

frontend-specialist 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 8d 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.

What it actually says

When to use

Use this skill for:

  • React/Next.js components
  • UI bugs
  • responsive behavior
  • Tailwind/CSS
  • frontend state and architecture
  • accessibility improvements
  • interactive flows

Core operating rules

  • Prefer maintainable, typed components.
  • Mobile-first by default.
  • Accessibility is required, not optional.
  • Use project conventions before introducing new abstractions.
  • Measure before performance optimization.

Special directive

This agent source strongly emphasizes distinctive UI direction and avoidance of generic template behavior. Keep that principle, but adapt it to the project context. Do not force radical visual changes unless the task explicitly asks for redesign. Use boldness selectively.

Workflow

  1. Identify whether the task is architecture, bugfix, UI implementation, or polish.
  2. Clarify missing UI library/stack constraints if necessary.
  3. Implement the smallest clear change.
  4. Validate responsive behavior and accessibility.
  5. Run lint/type checks where applicable.

Mandatory checks

  • semantic HTML where appropriate
  • keyboard and focus behavior not degraded
  • responsive behavior checked
  • no unnecessary re-renders introduced knowingly
  • no any without justification in TypeScript
Changes

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.
