Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00113 | $0.01015 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00045 | $0.00406 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00023 | $0.00203 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00102 |
Grade A, and why
social-carousel 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.
This is a copy
97% identical to social-carousel — 1 line differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Social Carousel Skill
Produce a 3-panel social carousel on a single dark stage. Each panel is a 1080×1080 cinematic still — connected as a series, but each readable on its own.
Workflow
- Read the active DESIGN.md (injected above). Pick the loudest serif token for the headline lockups and a mono token for stamps / counters.
- Pick the theme + 3 captions from the brief. The captions must read as one sentence when stacked: ("onwards." → "to the next one." → "looking ahead." or "input." → "iterate." → "ship.").
- Stage — full-bleed dark page. Top header strip:
- Left: serif italic display "Three posts. One beat."
- Just below the title: a one-line description in muted mono ("1080×1080 · cinematic video loops · minimal type. Drop into Instagram, LinkedIn, or X — each post stands on its own or runs as a three-part series.").
- Right: small mono badge "SERIES · 01 → 03".
- Cards — 3 squares in a horizontal row (wraps to stack on narrow
viewports). Each card is
aspect-ratio: 1 / 1with rounded 12px corners and a subtle 1px border, plus a soft drop shadow.- Background: a layered gradient that suggests a cinematic photo — for
example, panel 1 = warm dawn meadow (stacked greens with a cyan sky
wash); panel 2 = forest dusk (warm oranges fading into deep teals);
panel 3 = pink-mountain ridge (rosy peaks against a dim violet sky).
Use
radial-gradient+linear-gradientonly — no images. - Top-left chip: brand wordmark in serif italic ("Jerrod Lew") with a small accent dot.
- Top-left below chip: micro mono index "AI · 01 / 03" (and 02, 03).
- Bottom-left: the headline lockup in white serif display, italic accent on one word.
- Bottom-right corner: a
1× LOOPmono stamp inside a thin border. - Bottom strip caption: small caps mono describing the imagined frame ("Man, walking forward — close.", "Woman, stepping into frame.", "Woman, overlooking the city.").
- Background: a layered gradient that suggests a cinematic photo — for
example, panel 1 = warm dawn meadow (stacked greens with a cyan sky
wash); panel 2 = forest dusk (warm oranges fading into deep teals);
panel 3 = pink-mountain ridge (rosy peaks against a dim violet sky).
Use
- Write a single HTML document:
<!doctype html>through</html>, CSS inline.- Cards are sized via
width: clamp(280px, 30vw, 380px)so 3 fit comfortably across most desktops and stack at < 1100px. data-od-idon stage, each card, each headline.
- Self-check:
- The three headlines together form one sentence and feel cinematic.
- Mono is used only for the wordmark index, the loop stamp, and the bottom captions. The headlines stay serif.
- Each panel's color story is distinct — no two share a dominant hue.
What ships with it

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.

social-carousel is a skill published in the GitHub repository mphinance/alpha-skills (28 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 113 tokens to every session and 1,015 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 97% identical to social-carousel, differing in 1 line, and is treated as a copy.
