benchmark-models from rjmurillo/ai-agents is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add rjmurillo/ai-agents/benchmark-models@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Cross-model benchmark. Runs one prompt or skill through Claude, GPT (Codex CLI), and Gemini side by side and compares latency, tokens, cost, tool calls, and optionally output quality via an Anthropic-API judge. Answers "which model is actually best for this skill?" with data. Use when you say "benchmark models", "compare models", "which model is best for X", "cross-model comparison", or "model shootout". Do NOT use to measure web page performance.

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

# benchmark-models

Run the same prompt across providers and compare them on data, not vibes. The
deterministic work lives in `scripts/model_benchmark.py` (stdlib-only, ported
from gstack's bun benchmark; no SDKs, no gstack runtime). This skill is the
interactive wrapper: pick a prompt, preview auth with a dry-run, confirm
providers, run, interpret, optionally save.

Providers wrap existing CLIs and their own auth (no API keys needed except the
optional judge):

- `claude` via `claude -p --output-format json`
- `gpt` via `codex exec ... -s read-only --json`
- `gemini` via `gemini -p ... --output-format stream-json`

## Triggers

Invoke this skill when the user says any of:

- `benchmark models`
- `compare models`
- `model shootout`
- `which model is best`
- `cross-model comparison`

Do NOT invoke for web page performance (that is a different concern).

## Preconditions

- At least one provider CLI installed and authenticated. The Step 1 dry-run
  reports exactly which are ready; if none are, the skill stops.
- The optional quality judge needs `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` (adds ~$0.05/run).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rjmurillo/ai-agents/benchmark-models@sha256:d4db0f6592aba3c3

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
