paper-design is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from regen-coordination/org-os-template. It costs 68 tokens per session (2,373 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for creating and exporting visual compositions on Paper, a canvas where designs are made from HTML and CSS elements. It uses an organisation's DESIGN.md brand rules and can export results as PNG, SVG, or JSX.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for drafting, refining, reviewing, and exporting social cards, posters, presentation slides, page mock-ups, and similar visual work.
Why use it?
It keeps visual drafts aligned with an organisation's existing colours, type, and other design tokens instead of inventing unrelated styles.

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

paper-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 29d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 153 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Paper Design

Paper (https://paper.design) is a canvas whose every element is real HTML/CSS. Its MCP server runs locally from Paper Desktop (http://127.0.0.1:29979/mcp) and exposes read tools, write tools, tokens, export and comment threads. This skill is the method; the drawing happens through Paper's own tools. packages/paper-integration/ only guarantees health, token sync and token drift — read docs/integrations/paper.md for the runbook and the module's current status.

When to Use

  • Asked to draft, refine, or export a visual artifact on a Paper canvas — a social card, poster, deck slide, page mock, or any composition already described in the org's DESIGN.md.
  • Brand tokens are already pushed to the target Paper file (npm run paper:lint-tokens passes), or can be pushed first with paper:push-tokens.
  • A human has left comments on an existing artboard that need addressing — see The review loop, below.

When NOT to Use

  • For an org whose tokens are not the ones currently pushed to the target Paper file — never use another org's artifact as the style reference.
  • To pick a colour, size, or weight that has no token. Derive it into the org's own stylesheet and push the token first; this skill draws from tokens, it does not invent brand values.
  • Past the 25-call per-artifact budget. Export what exists and stop — see Budget, below.

Budget — read first

The free tier allows 100 metered MCP tool calls per week. initialize/tools/list are free; every tools/call is metered — including one that Paper rejects, since a response still came back. Per artifact: 25 calls, hard stop. At 25, export what exists, release working indicators, report — do not "finish quickly". Typical spend for one composition:

step calls
get_basic_info · get_font_family_info([brand face]) · create_artboard 3
write_html, one visual group each 6–10
get_screenshot (max 3) · targeted update_styles / set_text_content (max 3) ≤6
find_nodes colour audit · export · get_jsx · finish_working_on_nodes 4

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.
