    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

    Skill attempts to fill the context window with filler content, displacing legitimate instructions and safety constraints. This can degrade agent performance or bypass safety boundaries.
    Fix: Implement context-window management that detects and rejects padding or stuffing attempts. Prioritize system instructions over user-injected content.

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

preview-screens 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 10d 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 — 245 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Plugin check: Run node "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-version.js" - if it outputs a message, show it to the user before proceeding.

Shared instructions: shared-instructions.md — read first.

Preview Screens

Generates a self-contained HTML file that renders every screen in the app as a phone-frame mockup (375 × 812) with tab navigation and a dark/light toggle. The agent reads TSX files, understands the Tamagui component tree, and produces equivalent HTML/CSS — no programmatic TSX parsing.

When to use

  • After generating screens, to see a quick visual preview without running Metro/Expo
  • To share a screenshot-ready mockup with stakeholders
  • To verify layout before deploying

When NOT to use

  • To run the actual app → use npm run dev
  • To modify screens → use /edit-app; screen-builder is an internal agent invoked by orchestrator skills

Workflow

  1. Locate project → 2. Discover screens → 3. Read reference mapping → 4. Read & convert each screen → 5. Assemble preview.html → 6. Write file → 7. Open in browser

Step 1 — Locate project

Determine the working directory:

  • If $ARGUMENTS contains --working-dir <path>, use that.
  • Otherwise use the current working directory.

Validate the project:

Glob pattern="power.config.json" path="<working_dir>"

If missing, check for package.json. If neither exists, report the error and stop.

Read memory-bank.md if present to get the project name for the page title:

Grep pattern="^# " path="<working_dir>/memory-bank.md"

Fallback: read name from package.json.

Step 2 — Discover screens

Telemetry checkpoint: discover_app_screens

Find all TSX files under the app directory:

Glob pattern="app/**/*.tsx" path="<working_dir>"

Exclude these patterns — they are not screens:

  • _layout.tsx (navigation layouts)
  • +not-found.tsx (Expo Router error boundary)
  • Files in directories starting with .
  • index.tsx at the app root if it only contains an auth redirect (read it to check)
  • The untouched template app/(app)/home.tsx when at least one other visible screen exists. Recognize it only when its source still contains both Power Apps Standalone and Build your first screen by connecting data sources. Keep it when it is the only visible screen so the preview is never empty.

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.
