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

css-creative-expert 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 6d 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.

CSS creative expert

Overview

Turn an imprecise request to improve a page into a small, rendered, maintainable CSS change. Own visual craft, layout, responsive behavior, theming, motion, and accessible color design. Route measured contrast audits and palette repair to color-accessibility-expert; route interaction, task flow, and usability judgment to ui-ux-engineer.

Workflow

  1. Classify the request and choose a visible outcome.
  1. Detect the target project shape and map its cascade surface.
  • Existing stylesheet: inventory entry points, layers, custom properties, specificity hot spots, component boundaries, responsive breakpoints, and existing visual tests before editing.
  • Greenfield page: establish content hierarchy, semantic HTML, a token system, baseline layout, narrow-screen behavior, and one coherent visual direction.
  • Read references/project_workflow.md.
  1. Establish the visual and structural contract.
  • State the content hierarchy, layout primitive, width and overflow behavior, color-role intent, motion purpose, reduced-motion behavior, and target viewports. Keep design tokens and component rules legible in the cascade.
  • Prefer a focused change that preserves the page's purpose over a generic restyle. Select the relevant source and verification move from references/topic_index.md.
  1. Route local evidence by outcome and source type.
  • When the local corpus exists, use references/local_books.md to select css-creative/ for visual craft or css-technical/ for mechanics.
  • Search one verified term from references/reference_survey.md. Use a focused guide for an exact feature, a broad book for its surrounding model, or secondary examples as idea sources.
  • Read the full surrounding section, then confirm evolving syntax, browser support, and implementation details in MDN and the relevant CSS specification.

Changes

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.
