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

canvas-design 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.

Canvas Design

When to Use

Trigger phrases:

  • "canvas design"

  • "Design visual art and graphics using HTML5 Canvas, p5"

  • When creating visual diagrams, charts, or infographics

  • When generating algorithmic/generative art

  • When building interactive data visualizations

  • When designing custom graphics for presentations or documents

When NOT to Use

  • For photo editing (use image editors)
  • For UI component design (use frontend-ui-design)
  • For video content (use video generation skills)

Overview

Create professional visual content using programmatic design tools. Supports HTML5 Canvas, p5.js for generative art, SVG for scalable graphics, and Canvas API for data visualization.

Canvas design spans three approaches: pixel-level rendering (HTML Canvas API, node-canvas) where every pixel is explicitly drawn; declarative vectors (SVG) where shapes are defined as DOM elements that remain selectable and scalable; and creative coding (p5.js, Processing) which provides a friendly API for generative art and interactive sketches.

Python stack: Pillow (PIL) for server-side image generation, compositing, and batch processing. Works in CI/CD pipelines, web backends, and data workflow automation. Browser stack: HTML5 Canvas 2D API for raster graphics, SVG for vector graphics, and p5.js for generative art and creative coding. Zero-install — runs in every browser. Node.js stack: node-canvas provides a Cairo-backed Canvas API for server-side rendering, enabling automated social media image generation, chart rendering, and thumbnail creation.

Key capabilities: generative art with algorithmic patterns, data-driven infographics and charts, responsive diagrams that scale across devices, real-time interactive visualizations, and automated asset generation for content pipelines.

Workflow

  1. Define visual spec — Dimensions, style, color palette, content
  2. Choose tool — p5.js (generative), SVG (scalable), Canvas (pixel)
  3. Create composition — Layout, shapes, text, images
  4. Apply style — Colors, gradients, shadows, typography
  5. Export — PNG, SVG, or interactive HTML

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.
