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

ux-settings 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 10d 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.

Settings UX

Settings is where users go when the defaults do not fit their life. A well-designed settings screen increases retention. An overwhelming or buried one drives frustration.


Checklist

Item Guidance
Logical grouping Grouped by theme: Account, Notifications, Appearance, Privacy, About.
Theme switching Offers System (auto), Light, and Dark options. A three-way segmented control works well.
Font size Respects the OS setting by default. Offers an in-app override for accessibility needs.
In-app language User can change the app language from within Settings, independent of the OS language.
Notification granularity One toggle per notification type. Not just "All on / All off." See ux-notifications.
Data usage controls Auto-download on Wi-Fi only by default. User controls media quality (low, standard, high).
Clear cache User can clear the app cache and see storage usage from within Settings.
Section access Settings serves as secondary navigation. Does not duplicate the main navigation.
Search in settings Apps with 20 or more settings items offer a search bar inside settings.
Destructive actions at the bottom Delete account, sign out, and similar actions appear at the bottom of the list.

Patterns

Immediate save: Settings apply instantly without a "Save" button. The exception is a form with multiple related fields where confirmation is needed, such as changing an email address.

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.
