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

aesthetic 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.

Aesthetic

Create aesthetically beautiful interfaces by following proven design principles and systematic workflows.

When to Use This Skill

Use when:

  • Building or designing user interfaces
  • Analyzing designs from inspiration websites (Dribbble, Mobbin, Behance)
  • Generating design images and evaluating aesthetic quality
  • Implementing visual hierarchy, typography, color theory
  • Adding micro-interactions and animations
  • Creating design documentation and style guides
  • Need guidance on accessibility and design systems

Core Framework: Four-Stage Approach

1. BEAUTIFUL: Understanding Aesthetics

Study existing designs, identify patterns, extract principles. AI lacks aesthetic sense—standards must come from analyzing high-quality examples and aligning with market tastes.

Reference: references/design-principles.md - Visual hierarchy, typography, color theory, white space principles.

2. RIGHT: Ensuring Functionality

Beautiful designs lacking usability are worthless. Study design systems, component architecture, accessibility requirements.

Reference: references/design-principles.md - Design systems, component libraries, WCAG accessibility standards.

3. SATISFYING: Micro-Interactions

Incorporate subtle animations with appropriate timing (150-300ms), easing curves (ease-out for entry, ease-in for exit), sequential delays.

Reference: references/micro-interactions.md - Duration guidelines, easing curves, performance optimization.

4. PEAK: Storytelling Through Design

Elevate with narrative elements—parallax effects, particle systems, thematic consistency. Use restraint: "too much of anything isn't good."

Reference: references/storytelling-design.md - Narrative elements, scroll-based storytelling, interactive techniques.

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.
