Orkas is a desktop application for commanding a team of AI agents through one chat, with a commander model assigning work to specialist agents in parallel or in sequence. People use it to coordinate research, writing, presentations, and software tasks while keeping files on their computer. The catalogue includes skills for extending the agents available to Orkas.
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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Memory Poisoning · line 77 Skill manipulates agent memory, state, or stored context. Memory corruption can alter personality, override safety rules, or cause unpredictable behavior.Fix: Protect agent memory and state from modification by untrusted content. Use read-only memory for critical instructions and validate all state changes.
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 | $0.00003 | $0.01314 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00002 | $0.00657 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00001 | $0.00263 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00131 |
Grade A, and why
ui-taste 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 12d 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 — 123 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ui-taste
Use this specialist when the user explicitly asks for a less generic/less AI-looking direction, an expressive restyle, brand-led visual thesis, or a taste critique. ui-design-executor already carries the baseline subject grounding and visual thesis for ordinary work.
Ground The Design In The Subject
Before choosing a style, identify:
- The concrete product or subject, not only a broad category such as “AI SaaS”.
- The audience and pressure they feel: speed, trust, comparison, learning, creativity, delight, or compliance.
- The page's single job and the primary workflow that proves it.
- The subject's own visual material: tools, objects, environments, vocabulary, data shapes, imagery, or physical qualities.
- Real or representative content that makes this artifact belong to the product.
Typography, structure, imagery, copy, and motion should come from this evidence. A design that could keep the same layout and copy after swapping the product name has not gone far enough.
Visual Thesis
Before rendering a design, define:
product_type: operational tool, creative workspace, consumer product, developer tool, marketplace, education, finance, content, or brand site.subject: concrete product world and the material or behavior the UI can borrow from.audience_pressure: the user's dominant need.single_job: what this page must help the user complete or understand.primary_workflow: the action users repeat.density: compact, balanced, spacious, or editorial.tone: 2 precise words, not "modern" or "clean" alone.palette_roles: 4–6 named functional colors or existing product tokens.type_roles: deliberate display/title, body, label, and data choices as applicable.layout_concept: one sentence explaining how composition supports the job.signature_device: one subject-specific visual rule, not decoration.aesthetic_risk: one intentional choice that gives the artifact a point of view without harming usability.anti_template_rejection: what generic idea you rejected.
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.

ui-taste is a skill published in the GitHub repository Orkas-AI/Orkas (1,911 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 3 tokens to every session and 1,314 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
