Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00094 | $0.03546 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00038 | $0.01418 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00709 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00355 |
Grade A, and why
swiss-design 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 284 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Swiss Design System
A design system rooted in the Swiss International Style of the 1950s–60s: grotesque typography, rigorous grid, bold geometric forms, generous whitespace, and restrained color.
Six Principles
- Grid first. Every layout lives on a 12-column grid with an 8px base unit.
- Mobile first, always. Design for the smallest viewport first, then expand. Every layout must work at 320px and at 1440px. Use
sm:,md:,lg:Tailwind prefixes systematically. - Whitespace is structure. Generous padding and margins are not waste — they are the design.
- Opacity, not hue, creates hierarchy. Never introduce a second color to indicate text weight or importance. Use opacity.
- One accent. Each project gets exactly one accent color, used sparingly at multiple opacities.
- Narrow columns. Body text never exceeds
max-w-[60ch]. Wider columns hurt legibility.

What ships with it
4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

swiss-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository zeke/swiss-design-skill (162 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 94 tokens to every session and 3,546 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
