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

award-caliber-websites 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 163 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Award-Caliber Websites

Use this skill when the user asks for:

  • an award-winning website, Awwwards/Webby-level redesign, or standout landing page
  • creative direction for a premium site
  • critique of whether a site feels generic, memorable, usable, or award-caliber
  • an art-directed website with storytelling, scroll rhythm, motion, or interaction
  • a bridge between visual design skills and actual judged website quality

This is a class-level framework. Pair it with implementation skills:

  • claude-design for artifact process and anti-slop execution
  • popular-web-designs for real design-system references
  • design-md for persistent tokens and WCAG validation
  • p5js, hyperframes, or manim-video for motion and visual storytelling
  • dogfood or adversarial-ux-test for browser-based verification and UX friction testing

Core thesis

Award-caliber sites are not prettier generic sites. They have a clear idea, a memorable point of view, excellent usability, technical polish, and interaction that serves the story.

A site should be judged across seven dimensions:

  1. Concept: What is the site trying to make the visitor feel, believe, or do?
  2. Narrative: Does the scroll unfold like chapters instead of stacked sections?
  3. Visual system: Are color, type, spacing, imagery, and components distinctive and controlled?
  4. Interaction: Does motion reveal state, guide attention, or create tactility?
  5. Usability: Can a real visitor understand, navigate, and act without friction?
  6. Execution: Is it responsive, performant, accessible, and free of obvious technical defects?
  7. Content: Is the copy specific, useful, and emotionally aligned with the brand?

Workflow

1. Define the creative premise

Before designing sections, answer:

  • Who is this for?
  • What is the one-sentence idea of the site?
  • What should the visitor remember 24 hours later?
  • What is the brand allowed to be: calm, sharp, playful, cinematic, luxurious, weird, editorial, technical?
  • What is explicitly off-brand?

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.
