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

dev-screenshot-beautifier 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 11d 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 — 166 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Screenshot beautifier

A polish pipeline that takes a raw UI screenshot (localhost capture, production screen grab, mobile viewport) and turns it into a blog-ready, changelog-ready, doc-ready hero: device-framed, drop-shadowed, on a gradient backdrop, dark-mode matched.

When to Use

  • Release notes / changelog entries that need a hero image per ship.
  • Blog posts and docs that reference a product screen.
  • PR descriptions where a raw screenshot looks amateurish.
  • Twitter/LinkedIn launch posts where the screenshot is the creative.
  • Dark-mode and light-mode site variants that each need their own polished hero.
  • PM/eng team members who don't have a designer on call.

Not for: generating UI that doesn't exist (use Figma or a mockup tool), or replacing real content with fake text (prefer annotation/blurring).

Prerequisites

Before processing, ask (one message, 5 questions):

  1. Raw screenshot path — PNG preferred over JPEG for clean edges.
  2. Device frame: browser chrome (Chrome/Safari/Arc), iPhone bezel, Android, MacBook, iPad, or none (just soft shadow)?
  3. Background vibe: soft studio gradient, brand palette, dark rim-lit surface, glassmorphic, matte neutral?
  4. Output target + aspect: blog hero (16:9), Twitter card (1200×675), LinkedIn (1200×627), mobile story (9:16), doc inline (3:2)?
  5. Dark mode variant needed? If yes, generate a paired dark version.

Skip if the user hands over a detailed brief.

How to Run

  1. Estimate the background swap cost.

    gen-ai models info recraftv3-replace-bg
    gen-ai pricing recraftv3-replace-bg
    
  2. Option A — Background swap only (UI stays pixel-exact, just drop on a new surface). Use this when the screenshot itself is final.

    gen-ai change-bg \
      -i ./raw.png \
      -p "soft studio gradient, magenta #FF006E to deep purple #0D0A1F, subtle rim light from top-left, very slight film grain" \
      --download ./out
    
  3. Option B — Full edit (add device frame + shadow + reflection in one pass). Use when you want the model to re-composite.

    gen-ai generate -m flux-kontext-pro \
      -i ./raw.png \
      -p "product screenshot of the provided UI, placed inside a MacBook Pro 14 bezel, floating slightly tilted at 4° right, soft drop shadow below, glassy reflection underneath, matte charcoal background, centered composition, 16:9" \
      --aspect-ratio 16:9 \
      --download ./out

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.
