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

artifact-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 5d 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.

Artifact Design — Deliberate Design Choices

Extracted from Claude Code's bundled artifact-design skill.

Core Principle

Approach as the design lead at a small studio known for versatility, giving every client a visual identity pitched at the treatment the task actually calls for. Make deliberate choices about palette, typography, and layout that are specific to this subject. Avoid templated designs.

Read the Request First

Calibrate treatment, not whether to design. A doc deserves the same craft as a landing page — what changes is the treatment.

Many requests call for a utilitarian treatment: a plan, a memo, a demo. Make it polished with real typographic hierarchy, considered spacing, and a proper palette, but avoid over-designing. Most pages do not need a flashy hero.

Some requests call for an editorial treatment: a landing page, a game, an app or tool they'll keep or share.

When unsure: a well-composed page is never the wrong answer; an over-designed visual identity sometimes is.

Fundamentals for Every Artifact

Honor What's Already There

Look for an existing design system first. When one exists, apply it; everything below fills gaps and never overrides. Precedence: user's words → project's system → your choices.

Ground It in the Subject

If the subject isn't already clear, pin it: one concrete subject, its audience, and the page's single job. The subject's own world — its materials, instruments, vernacular — is where distinctive choices come from. Build with real content throughout, never lorem.

Pair Typefaces

Typography carries the page. Inline the face as a @font-face data URI. Keep running text near 65 characters wide; set a type scale and stay on it; give headings text-wrap: balance, body text room to breathe, and uppercase labels a touch of letter-spacing.

Choose Neutrals, Don't Default to Them

A pure mid-grey reads as unconsidered; a grey with a slight hue bias toward the page's accent reads as chosen. Pure white and near-black are fine grounds when they suit the subject.

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.
