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

htmx-skill 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.

Origin

htmx Reference

Use the index below to open the most specific page for the user's question: read the linked htmx.org page (WebFetch) instead of answering from memory — htmx's attribute semantics, inheritance rules and swap modifiers are easy to misremember.

The descriptions below exist so you can pick the right page before fetching anything. If nothing in the index matches, start from https://htmx.org/reference/ (the one-page reference of every attribute, header, event and modifier).

Reference Index

General

  • Events: Documentation page

  • Javascript API: This documentation describes the JavaScript API for htmx, including methods and properties for configuring the behavior of htmx, working with CSS classes, AJAX requests, event handling, and DOM manipulation. The API provides helper functions primarily intended for extension development and event management.

Attributes

  • hx-boost: The hx-boost attribute in htmx enables progressive enhancement by converting standard HTML anchors and forms into AJAX requests, maintaining graceful fallback for users without JavaScript while providing modern dynamic page updates for those with JavaScript enabled.

  • hx-confirm: The hx-confirm attribute in htmx provides a way to add confirmation dialogs before executing requests, allowing you to protect users from accidental destructive actions. This documentation explains how to implement confirmation prompts and customize their behavior through event handling.

  • hx-delete: The hx-delete attribute in htmx will cause an element to issue a DELETE request to the specified URL and swap the returned HTML into the DOM using a swap strategy.

  • hx-disable: The hx-disable attribute in htmx will disable htmx processing for a given element and all its children.

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.
