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

article-cover-image 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 11d 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.

Skill:article-cover-image

文章封面图|默认 16:9|主色 E63A46|轻量多风格|MiSans|非塑料质感

0. 最高优先级规则

你的任务是:根据用户输入的标题或文章,直接生成一张横版文章封面图,默认比例为 16:9。

默认行为:

直接调用图像生成能力出图
默认带标题文字
标题文字必须少
标题默认使用 MiSans 字体风格
整体视觉系统必须统一
主色固定使用 #E63A46
默认避免塑料感、玩具感、廉价 C4D 感
不要先输出大段分析
不要只输出 Prompt

只有用户明确要求:

只要方案
只要 Prompt
先分析
不生成图

才输出文字方案。

0.1 适用边界与重定向

触发范围:

用户给标题,或给标题 + 正文,并要求生成文章、内容、视频、PPT 首页或网站 Banner 类封面图。
默认输出一张横版封面图;默认比例 16:9,除非用户显式指定其它比例。

不触发范围:

icon / 符号 / 黑白线性图标 → 转到 black-line-icon-style
信息图 / 知识卡片 / 对比表 / 流程长图 / 课程大纲图 → 转到专门的信息图或图表工作流
品牌正式 Logo 定稿 → 转到 logo 设计工作流或人工设计
只要文章文案 / 普通写作 Prompt / 非视觉分析 → 转到写作或 prompt 相关工作流

意图歧义处理:

用户说“只要 Prompt”且目标是文章封面图 → 使用本 Skill 的文字模式,输出封面图生成 Prompt,不调用图像生成。
用户说“只要 Prompt”但目标是文章写作、营销文案或普通提示词 → 不触发本 Skill。
用户说“不生成图”但仍要求封面视觉方案 → 使用文字模式;如果完全不需要视觉产物 → 不触发本 Skill。

ownership:

默认 ownership = edit/generate image:直接调用图像生成能力产出图片。
仅当用户显式说“只要 Prompt / 不生成图 / 先给方案”时,ownership = rewrite inline:只输出可复制的生成 Prompt 或方案,不生成图片。

完成标准:

done = 产出一张封面图,且 §5.6 的 9 项自检全部通过。
若用户只要 Prompt,done = 输出 §11 主 Prompt + §12 Negative Prompt,且不调用图像生成。

0.2 主流程

CREATE A TODO LIST FOR THE TASKS BELOW(内部执行,不向用户展示):

1. 读取用户输入。若既没有标题,也无法从文章中提取主题 → 向用户索要标题并退出。
2. 识别输出模式。若用户显式要求“只要 Prompt / 不生成图 / 先分析” → 生成文字方案并结束;否则继续出图。
3. 提取原标题。若输入包含正文 → 用正文辅助理解主题,但正文不直接进入画面。
4. 生成短标题:若原标题包含解释、对比、流程、方法、教程或论证结构 → 执行子流程「复杂标题降维」;否则按 §4.1 压缩为短标题。
5. 选择风格:按 §8 路由到 §7.1 风格池;若没有明确命中 → 默认使用 B 现代产品 UI 风或 A 极简杂志风。
6. 确定单主体:按 §5.5 选择一个核心视觉主体;若标题含多个对象 → 先找单一视觉隐喻覆盖全部语义。
7. 拼接内部 Prompt:使用 §11 主 Prompt;若运行时支持 Negative Prompt → 附加 §12;否则按 §5.8 把关键负面约束写回主 Prompt。
8. 跑 §5.6 自检。若任一项不通过 → 按 §5.7 或 §5.8 纠偏后跳回第 5 步;若同一失败连续 2 次出现 → 降级为无字图或更抽象单主体方案后再试一次;仍失败 → 简短说明失败原因并结束,不宣称 done。
9. 调用图像生成能力产出封面图,简短回复结果,并结束。

子流程「复杂标题降维」:

1. 识别标题类型:对比型 → §5.3;流程型 → §5.4;其它解释 / 方法 / 教程型 → §5.1。
2. 删除解释词、修饰词、副标题、括号内容和长句结构。
3. 只保留一个核心判断或一个核心对象。
4. 输出符合 §4.1 的短标题,并返回主流程第 5 步。

1. 视觉系统统一规则

所有封面必须属于同一个品牌视觉系统。

统一要素包括:

1.1 主色统一

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.
