A design guide for presenting AI results as text, code, images, charts, or combinations of these formats.

In plain words
What is it for?
Choosing output formats, organizing responses, displaying code and visualizations, supporting edits, and making AI results easier to act on or reproduce.
Why use it?
It helps turn raw AI responses into information that people can scan, understand, verify, edit, and use.

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

ai-multimodal-output 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.

AI Output & Multimodal Design

Design how AI results are presented, formatted, and consumed across every output modality - text, code, images, data visualizations, and mixed media. The RENDER framework ensures AI outputs are scannable, actionable, and trustworthy regardless of format.

Core Principle

AI generates output. Humans consume meaning. The gap between raw AI output and human understanding is a design problem, not a model problem. A brilliant AI answer poorly formatted is worse than a mediocre answer well-structured.


The RENDER Framework

Letter Principle Design Question
R Right Format Is the output in the format that best serves the user's goal (not the model's default)?
E Easy to Scan Can the user extract the key insight in under 5 seconds?
N Navigable Depth Can the user drill into details without drowning in them upfront?
D Directly Actionable Can the user act on this output without additional steps?
E Editable Can the user modify, refine, or iterate on the output in-place?
R Reproducible Can the user understand how to get this output again or share it?

Output Format Selection Matrix

The AI should automatically select the best output format based on the content type:

Content Type Best Format Why Anti-Pattern
Single factual answer Inline text (1-2 sentences) Quick to consume A 3-paragraph essay for a yes/no question
Step-by-step instructions Numbered list with headers Scannable, sequenceable Prose paragraphs describing steps
Comparison Table with clear columns Side-by-side evaluation Alternating paragraphs about each option
Code Syntax-highlighted code block with language label Copy-friendly, readable Code embedded in prose without formatting
Data/trends Chart or visualization Pattern recognition Raw numbers in a paragraph
Complex explanation Headers + sections + summary Navigable hierarchy Wall of undifferentiated text
Creative writing Clean prose, no artifacts Immersive reading Bullet points for a poem
Mixed Composite card with labeled sections Each element in its optimal format Forcing everything into one format

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.
