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.

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 | $0.00026 | $0.00708 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00283 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00142 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00071 |
Grade A, and why
docs-canvas 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.

Docs canvas
Contract
| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | Render a set of documentation (file, directory, or URL) as an interactive, navigable HTML canvas artifact. |
| Authority | Reversible local: writes only the single output HTML artifact in the working directory; rollback is deleting that file. No remote mutation. Read-only access to local files or network fetch for URLs. |
| Side effect | Creates one self-contained HTML canvas artifact under the working directory. |
| Done | One self-contained, navigable HTML file at the stated path containing the structured overview, rendered sections, and a combined sources index. |
Inputs
Required: a documentation source. A file path, a directory path, or a URL that is readable from the working directory or reachable over the network.
Optional: a preferred output filename (default docs-canvas.html) and a section-grouping hint.
Procedure
-
Fetch or traverse the documentation source to extract text. For a single file, read it directly. For a directory, walk the tree and read every text-readable file (markdown, HTML, plain text), skipping binary and non-document files. For a URL, fetch the page content. Stop if the source is unreadable or unreachable. Done when: raw text is extracted from every readable source file or page.
-
Parse the extracted text into an ordered hierarchy of document titles and section headings. For each document, extract the title and every heading in source order. When two headings produce the same anchor, disambiguate by appending a numeric suffix. Done when: titles and headings are extracted in source order with unique anchors.
-
Extract source references and build a combined index. Collect every citation, link, and attribution discovered across all documents. Build an index mapping each reference to its source document and location. Done when: the combined sources index is built.
-
Render the content as a single HTML artifact with an interactive table of contents and a combined sources index. Produce one section per heading, preserving the source text without paraphrase or invented content. The table of contents links each entry to its section anchor; the combined sources index links each reference to its source document and location. Done when: every heading has a rendered section, every TOC entry links to its anchor, and the combined sources index is rendered.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

docs-canvas is a skill published in the GitHub repository OutlineDriven/outline-driven-development (54 stars, last pushed 28d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 708 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-03.
Other skills, from other repositories
deck-ljg-present
A presentation template that converts an outline or Markdown document into large, poster-like slides while keeping the original wording, order, and content. It uses black, red, or yellow colour themes and assigns document elements to slide layouts.
diagram-contract
Use when a diagram is going into a document: pick the tool, write the text source, render it, and embed it with an accessible caption. Text DSL plus a committed SVG is the shape — nomnoml for structure and flow, D2 for architecture, the house palette on both.
outline
Conventions and efficient workflows for Outline knowledge bases via mcp-outline tools. Use when creating, editing, restructuring, or diagramming Outline documents — covers Outline markdown quirks (mermaidjs code fences), document and collection structure, string-match editing, staged rewrites, batch operations, and…
document-api-endpoint
Use when reconciling an API endpoint's generated OpenAPI schema and declared response types with its actual runtime response. Not for general API documentation: use docs-and-adrs.
docs-canvas
Use when asked to render documentation as an interactive, navigable HTML canvas. Fetches files, directories, or URLs, extracts headings and sources, and produces a self-contained HTML artifact with a table of contents. Not for writing or restructuring docs.
eligibility-batch-organizer
Use when the user asks to classify a batch of projects against eligibility rules and generate an approval preview before creating hierarchical child documents.
