perf SKILL.md skillA

perf from umararshad4/honey-stack is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add umararshad4/honey-stack/perf@git:20261031.70e54fb

Pins git:20261031.70e54fb in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Performance engineering: profile to find the real bottleneck, fix the hot path, add caching, and load-test with before/after numbers. Use when something is slow, costs too much, or misses an SLO. Measure first.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# perf

Make it faster, but only where it's actually slow. The bottleneck is almost never where intuition says — measure, fix the hot path, prove the win.

Before reporting a measured speedup or choosing between implementations, read [the benchmark checklist](references/benchmark-checklist.md). For stuttering application animations, read [motion performance](../frontend/references/motion-performance.md) and record frames/long tasks on the target device; source inspection alone cannot establish smoothness.

## Discipline
1. **Baseline first** — numbers + environment + input, before any change.
2. **Profile, don't guess.** Find the real bottleneck (`references/profiling.md` has the tool per stack).
3. **Amdahl's law:** a path that's 5% of total time caps your gain at 5%. Optimize the top of the profile only.
4. **Verify** with before/after on the same workload; keep the change only if the delta beats noise. Report **p50/p95/p99**, not the mean.
5. **Stop at the target.** Hit the SLO, document the baseline and win, don't chase diminishing returns.

**Premature when:** no measurement, no user-facing problem, no SLO breach, not a hot path. Correctness and clarity first.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add umararshad4/honey-stack/perf@sha256:ed21da8cd6518735

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.70e54fb, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
