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 | $0.00081 | $0.00587 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00041 | $0.00293 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00117 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00059 |
Grade A, and why
gesture-alternatives 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 13d 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 — 71 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Gesture Alternatives
Every gesture-based interaction must have a simpler alternative. Gestures that require specific physical movements exclude people with motor disabilities, limb differences, tremors, or limited range of motion.
Core Principle
Gestures are shortcuts, not gatekeepers. The feature they activate must always be reachable another way.
Gesture Types and Required Alternatives
Path-Based Gestures (swipe, draw, drag)
These require tracing a specific path. Many users cannot perform them.
- Swipe to delete → visible delete button
- Swipe to navigate → previous/next buttons
- Draw a shape → select from a menu of shapes
- Drag to reorder → move up/down buttons or numbered input
Multi-Point Gestures (pinch, rotate, two-finger scroll)
These require multiple simultaneous contact points.
- Pinch to zoom → zoom buttons (+/−) and text input for zoom level
- Two-finger rotate → rotation buttons or degree input
- Two-finger scroll → single-finger scroll or visible scrollbar
- Three-finger swipe → visible button or menu option
Device Motion (shake, tilt, rotation)
These require moving the entire device.
- Shake to undo → visible undo button (always)
- Tilt to steer → on-screen directional controls
- Device rotation for content → manual rotation toggle
Timed Gestures (long press, double tap)
These require precise timing.
- Long press for context menu → visible menu trigger (⋮ or ⋯)
- Double tap to zoom → zoom button
- Press and hold to record → toggle start/stop buttons
Design Patterns
Progressive Enhancement
- Build the button-based version first
- Add gesture support as an enhancement on top
- This guarantees the alternative always exists
Discoverability
- Gesture shortcuts should be documented but not required
- Show a hint on first use ("You can also swipe to delete")
- Provide a gesture guide in settings or help
- Never assume users know a gesture exists
Customisation
- Allow users to disable gesture controls entirely
- Allow remapping of gestures where possible
- Respect system-level gesture settings
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.

gesture-alternatives is a skill published in the GitHub repository Owl-Listener/inclusive-design-skills (98 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 81 tokens to every session and 587 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
