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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00049 | $0.02098 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00839 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00420 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00210 |
Grade A, and why
css-design-tdd 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 2mo 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 Design System TDD
Overview
Apply TDD principles to CSS design system work:
- RED: Run checks that reveal current issues
- GREEN: Fix CSS to pass checks
- REFACTOR: Verify no regressions, clean up
Available Checks
1. Undefined Variable Check
Find CSS variables used but never defined:
# Extract all var(--name) usages
grep -rhoE 'var\(--[a-zA-Z0-9-]+' src/**/*.css | sort -u | sed 's/var(//' > /tmp/css-vars-used.txt
# Extract all --name: definitions
grep -rhoE '^[[:space:]]*--[a-zA-Z0-9-]+:' src/**/*.css | sed 's/://' | sed 's/^[[:space:]]*//' | sort -u > /tmp/css-vars-defined.txt
# Find undefined (used but not defined)
comm -23 /tmp/css-vars-used.txt /tmp/css-vars-defined.txt
2. Missing Fallback Check
Find var(--name) without fallbacks in container blocks:
# Blockquote variables without fallback
grep -n 'var(--[^,)]*)[^,]' src/components/Editor/editor.css | grep -E 'blockquote|alert|details'
# All containers - should have fallbacks for --list-indent, etc.
grep -rn 'var(--list-indent)' src/**/*.css # Should be var(--list-indent, 1em)
3. Hardcoded Color Check
Find hex/rgba colors that should be tokens:
# Hex colors outside :root definitions
grep -rn '#[0-9a-fA-F]\{3,6\}' src/**/*.css | grep -v ':root' | grep -v 'var(--'
# Hardcoded rgba (should be tokens in dark mode)
grep -rn 'rgba(255, 255, 255' src/**/*.css | grep -v ':root'
4. Container Consistency Check
Verify container blocks use consistent values:
# Check margins across containers
echo "=== MARGINS ==="
grep -rn 'margin:.*em' src/components/Editor/editor.css src/plugins/alertBlock/*.css src/plugins/detailsBlock/*.css
# Check padding
echo "=== PADDING ==="
grep -rn 'padding:' src/components/Editor/editor.css src/plugins/alertBlock/*.css src/plugins/detailsBlock/*.css | head -20
# Check list multipliers
echo "=== LIST MULTIPLIERS ==="
grep -rn 'list-indent.*\*' src/**/*.css
5. Focus Indicator Check
Find interactive elements without focus styles:
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.

css-design-tdd is a skill published in the GitHub repository xiaolai/vmark (878 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed ISC. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 2,098 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
