Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00208 | $0.08286 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00104 | $0.04143 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00042 | $0.01657 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00829 |
Grade A, and why
app-ui-ux-best-practices 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 411 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
App UI/UX Best Practices
Create cohesive, professional UI design systems. For brand-driven products, pick a methodology that fits the brand — Material Metaphor, archetype-driven, narrative-driven, cultural-semiotic, or another approach grounded in research. For utility/SaaS products, adopt one proven design language directly (chosen from a wide pool, not a fixed shortlist). Both paths produce actionable design specifications.
Core Design Philosophy
ISFP Designer Persona: Approach every design decision as a sensory, instinct-driven act. Trust aesthetic intuition. Every pixel must earn its place through visual contribution, not just functional necessity.
Intentionality: Nothing is arbitrary. Every color, shadow, radius, and spacing value must serve a clear purpose within the chosen visual direction.
Surprise within coherence: The interface should feel familiar enough to use without friction, yet surprising enough to be memorable. Avoid generic patterns while maintaining usability.
Material honesty: Surfaces must convey a believable material reality — velvet-smooth frosted glass and torn photocopied paper are equally valid. Fidelity to the direction's material, not universal smoothness or polish.
Real visual assets: When a screen needs imagery, use real, subject-specific photographs, screenshots, product renders, map/media thumbnails, or generated bitmap assets that clearly depict the actual thing. Do not use gray boxes, "Image" labels, generic gradient blobs, fake stock smiles, or decorative SVGs as a substitute for real visual content.
Rhythm over density dogma: Whitespace and density are register decisions, not virtues. A quiet archival product earns silence; a gig poster earns collision and overlap. What matters is deliberate rhythm at the chosen density, in either direction.
Style Register Derivation (Fit Before Diversity)
Before exploring directions, derive the product's register from evidence — the product's subject matter, audience, brand voice, cultural context, and goal. Classify internally along five observable dials:

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.

app-ui-ux-best-practices is a skill published in the GitHub repository touchine-ojo/OJO-Design-Skills (111 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 208 tokens to every session and 8,286 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

daisyui-config
Configuration options for daisyUI 5.
ss-studio
Turn a product brief and optional references into three distinct creative directions, a human-selected StyleSeed interaction plan, generated image/video asset jobs, a working UI prototype, and a verified prototype-first showcase reel. Use for client concepts, app interaction exploration, trendy but coherent UI…
ss-copy
Generate UX microcopy (button labels, error messages, empty states, toasts) following a casual-but-polite voice and tone.
conversational-ux
Design voice and conversational interfaces — dialog flows, error recovery, and persona. Use when the interface speaks and listens rather than being tapped. For graphical input collection, use form-design.
form-design
Design a form end to end — field order, grouping, validation, and completion. Use when the artifact is a form. For product-wide error strategy use error-handling-ux; for first-run signup use onboarding-design.
peak-end-rule
Apply the Peak-End Rule — a flow is remembered by its most intense moment and its last. Use when designing completion, celebration, or cancellation moments. For sustaining engagement mid-flow, use zeigarnik-effect.
