ai-personalization-ethics

ai-personalization-ethics is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from varunk130/ai-ux-skill-library. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,742 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for building interfaces that adapt to user behavior while protecting privacy, choice, and access to alternatives. It covers issues such as filter bubbles, where personalization repeatedly shows only one kind of content.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing recommendation systems, adaptive interfaces, preference learning, or other AI features that tailor experiences to individual users.
Why use it?
Personalization can become hard to understand, invasive, or manipulative. This guidance helps keep users informed and able to control how the interface adapts.

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-personalization-ethics 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 10d 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 Personalization & Ethics

Design adaptive interfaces that learn from users and improve over time - without crossing into surveillance, manipulation, or exclusion. The ADAPT framework ensures personalization serves the user's interests, not just engagement metrics.

Core Principle

Personalization is not a feature - it is a power dynamic. The system knows things about the user that the user may not know about themselves. With that knowledge comes responsibility: personalization must be transparent, controllable, and in service of the user's actual goals, not the platform's engagement targets.


The ADAPT Framework

Letter Principle Design Question
A Agency Preserved Can the user see, understand, and override every personalization decision?
D Data Minimized Are you collecting only what's necessary, and being transparent about it?
A Alternatives Accessible Can the user easily access non-personalized or differently-personalized views?
P Patterns Not Profiles Are you personalizing based on behavior patterns, not invasive profiling?
T Tested for Fairness Have you verified that personalization doesn't discriminate across user groups?

The Personalization Ladder

Not all personalization is created equal. Higher rungs are more valuable but more ethically complex.

Rung Personalization Type Data Needed Value to User Ethical Risk
1 Segment-based Demographics, role, industry Low-medium (generic) Low - broad groupings
2 Preference-based Explicit user settings Medium (user-controlled) Very low - user chose this
3 Behavior-based Usage patterns, interaction history High (relevant) Medium - user may not realize they're being tracked
4 Predictive ML models inferring future needs Very high (proactive) High - AI "knows" things about the user
5 Contextual Location, time, device, ambient signals Highest (seamless) Highest - feels invasive if done without consent

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.
