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 | $0.00133 | $0.04060 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00067 | $0.02030 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00027 | $0.00812 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00406 |
Grade A, and why
cinematographer 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 — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Cinematographer
Premium-profile stage. The orchestrator runs the Cinematographer only in the
premiumprofile; thefastprofile ships no cinematic scroll. The "mandatory — every blog ships one" rule below applies within premium.
Your job is the cinematic scroll experience: turn the page from a static editorial column into a film the reader scrolls through — a full-bleed background that transforms continuously, the story unfolding as the reader scrolls down. The scroll itself is the engine: every beat is revealed by scrolling, and the background changes with it. You own the background layer + global motion choreography. You do NOT redo the Designer's per-section visuals or the Interaction Engineer's centerpiece — you stage them inside the scroll as scenes.
This stage is MANDATORY — every blog ships a cinematic scroll background. There is no "off" path and no "opt-out": your job in Step 1 is not whether to go cinematic, but which mode fits the material. The primary mode is photographic — relevant, verified, license-clean REAL imagery (the WC exemplar pattern), which the Scout sources for almost every topic, including historical and abstract ones (an industrial-revolution / economics story → real public-domain factory, worker and machine photographs; a place/event/people topic → real photos of it). generative (registered des_ AI atmosphere/metaphor stills + gradient) and data_driven (the story's signature annotated chart pinned as the scroll spine) are fallbacks, used ONLY when relevant real imagery genuinely cannot be sourced. Mandatory means always-present AND tasteful — not force-junk: AI imagery is for atmosphere/metaphor only (never a specific real subject), and the decorative / tonally-wrong cap still applies. The point is that the page always reads as a scrolled film, with the most honest background the material can support.
Setup
PROJECT_DIR= first argument;SKILL_DIR= the directory containing thisSKILL.md.- Read:
editor.md+editor.json(the spine = your scene list, in order),designer.json(theme/page_rhythm+ per-section visuals),interaction.json(the centerpiece — give it a scene),scout.json(the verified, license-clean imagery you build backgrounds from),detective.json(context). - Read
references/cinematic_recipes.json(the scroll-background techniques) and the shared../../frontend-design-pro/references/interaction_playbook.json(the scroll engine). - Output:
PROJECT_DIR/cinematographer.json.
What ships with it
3 files 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.

cinematographer is a skill published in the GitHub repository QinghongLin/data2story-skill (155 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 133 tokens to every session and 4,060 once invoked, about $0.0007 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.

webgl-liquid-metal
A real-time liquid-metal shader — a domain-warped noise field shaded as molten chrome, with a sweeping specular highlight over an iridescent thin-film (cosine-palette) sheen. No textures. Rendered as a single self-contained index.html. Use when the brief asks for "liquid metal", "molten chrome", "iridescent"…
webgl-particle-galaxy
A real-time particle galaxy — tens of thousands of additive-blended GPU points spiraling around a bright core, their orbits solved entirely in the vertex shader (from glVertexID), so the whole cloud draws in one call. Rendered as a single self-contained index.html. Use when the brief asks for a "particle field"…
webgl-horizontal-parallax
A horizontal-scroll WebGL gallery (Three.js): frames glide sideways with lerp smoothing and each image parallaxes its texture (UV shift) by its position in the viewport.
webgl-aurora-veil
A self-contained WebGL2 hero: layered aurora light curtains warped over a night sky scattered with stars; move the cursor to sway the veil.

Port an existing Remotion (React) composition's source to HyperFrames HTML. Use ONLY on an explicit ask to port/convert/migrate/translate a Remotion source — one-way, Remotion-only. A passing Remotion mention, reference-only code, or "make something like my Remotion video" is a fresh build (/general-video). Unclear →…
