glyphs-mcp-litsquare-metadata is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thierryc/Glyphs-mcp. It costs 69 tokens per session (1,289 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A skill for inspecting and changing LitSquare metadata in Glyphs, a font-design application. It also handles semantic roles assigned to selected outline paths, such as marking a path as a body.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing, explaining, dry-running, and changing LitSquare settings, notes, inheritance, icon centering, path roles, and related metadata.
Why use it?
It helps preserve and safely edit information attached to fonts, letters, layers, and outline paths while working in Glyphs.

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

glyphs-mcp-litsquare-metadata 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 12d 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.

LitSquare Metadata for Glyphs MCP

Use the typed LitSquare tools. Treat Glyphs' native dictionaries and path attributes as authoritative; JSON is only their transport projection. The Glyphs MCP Metadata Inspector uses Glyphs' native Palette disclosure control; the plug-in does not force or persist its open/closed state. Every tab uses the same compact JSON text area. Font, Glyph, and Layer edit only the direct com.litsquare value; Paths projects com.litsquare.role as {\"role\": \"body\"} and shows blank text when unassigned. A changed valid value commits once when the text area loses focus. Invalid JSON remains visible and causes no mutation; Escape restores the native baseline. The text.magnifyingglass footer control toggles the active tab into a read-only JSON projection of complete Font/Glyph/Layer userData or every selected path's complete attributes; multiple targets are listed separately with compact identifiers. Diagnostic markers represent native values JSON cannot express directly. The remaining footer controls provide Help, Copy, and Refresh. Palette edits are document-bound, undoable, and never save a font.

Read references/metadata-contract.md before any mutation or role recommendation. The canonical repository copy is metadata-contract.md.

Workflow

  1. Resolve the exact font_index, glyph name, layer ID, and selected paths. Stop on ambiguous glyph or layer selection.
  2. Call get_litsquare_metadata with inheritance enabled. Read the direct Font, Glyph, and Layer scopes plus effective settings and provenance.
  3. When paths matter, call get_selected_litsquare_path_roles. Retain every returned glyph name, layer ID, path index, fingerprint, and expected role.
  4. Validate schema support and property-list compatibility. Do not mutate invalid data or a future schema.
  5. Propose the smallest change. Preserve unknown LitSquare fields, unrelated userData namespaces, and every unrelated path attribute.
  6. Call patch_litsquare_metadata or set_litsquare_path_roles in dry-run mode. Present every replacement explicitly.
  7. Confirm only after the user approves the dry-run. Never infer a low-confidence role and never copy inherited values into a narrower scope merely to make them explicit.
  8. Read the affected metadata or roles again. Report verified results and fontSaved: false; never save automatically.

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.
