Use when auditing slow page loads, heavy assets, or rendering delays related to Optimize first contentful paint. Verify the actual bottleneck in DevTools, Lighthouse, or field data before recommending changes.
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
# Optimize first contentful paint FCP is the first visual signal that a page is loading—fast FCP reassures users that the site is responding, reducing perceived wait time and bounce rates. ## Quick Reference - FCP measures time until first text/image appears—target under 1.8s - Eliminate render-blocking CSS and JavaScript - Inline critical CSS for above-fold content - Use preconnect for third-party origins ## Check Measure FCP using Lighthouse or PageSpeed Insights. Verify first content appears within 1.8 seconds. ## Fix Optimize FCP by eliminating render-blocking resources, inlining critical CSS, and reducing server response time. ## Explain Explain how FCP measures the time until the first text or image is painted, indicating page load has begun. ## Code Review Review the routes, assets, and loading behavior that affect Optimize first contentful paint. Flag exact files, requests, or rendering steps that add unnecessary network, CPU, or layout cost, and describe the measurement method used to confirm the issue. --- For full implementation details, code examples, and framework-specific guidance, see `references/rule.md`. …

How to install
mdr add thedaviddias/front-end-checklist/first-contentful-paint@sha256:fefac0c0296a30acThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.4b0ddb9, 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.
