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

dashboard-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 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.

Dashboard Design

Overview

A good dashboard answers questions. A great dashboard drives decisions. This skill covers dashboard design principles — choosing the right metrics, visualizing data effectively, and building dashboards that teams actually use.

When to Use

  • Building a new dashboard for your product
  • Redesigning a dashboard that nobody looks at
  • Creating executive reports or weekly metric reviews
  • Onboarding a team to data-driven decision-making
  • Don't use for: ad-hoc analysis (use notebooks or query tools), operational monitoring (use alerting tools, not dashboards)

Instructions

1. Define the Audience and Purpose

Every dashboard needs ONE clear purpose:

  • Execution dashboard: For the team making daily decisions. Real-time or daily.
  • Health dashboard: For managers tracking trends. Weekly or monthly.
  • Strategic dashboard: For executives overseeing goals. Monthly or quarterly.

2. Choose the Right Metrics

  • Actionable → If this metric moves, can someone take action?
  • Leading → Predicts future outcomes (not lagging/too late)
  • Specific → Clear definition, unambiguous
  • Few → 5-9 metrics max per dashboard. More = noise

3. Design the Hierarchy

┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│  NORTH STAR (top, prominent)        │
│  One number that captures value     │
├────────┬────────┬────────┬─────────┤
│ Input  │ Input  │ Input  │ Input   │
│ Metric │ Metric │ Metric │ Metric  │
│ 1      │ 2      │ 3      │ 4       │
├────────┴────────┴────────┴─────────┤
│  Segments / Breakdowns             │
│  (platform, plan, cohort, etc.)    │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘

4. Visualization Best Practices

  • Line charts for trends over time (most common, most useful)
  • Bar charts for comparisons between groups
  • Single number + sparkline for the North Star metric
  • Heatmap for density or cohort analysis
  • Table for detailed data (use sparingly)
  • ❌ Pie charts (hard to compare), gauges (take too much space), 3D charts (distorting)
