License
a license file GitHub does not identify

Write or refine a ready-to-use /goal prompt for a performance benchmark, regression investigation or optimization campaign. Define measurable targets, a matched baseline, change boundaries, diagnostic evidence and completion criteria. Use for drafting the goal, not executing the campaign.

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

# Write a performance benchmark goal

Turn the user's performance question into an actionable goal using an
**Analyze → Hypothesize → Verify** loop. Drafting alone does not authorize starting
a goal, launching jobs, changing code or publishing results. Honor execution
already authorized by the user when a request includes both drafting and action.

Use [the goal template](assets/goal-template.md) as a starting point. Scale it to
the task: a fixed benchmark comparison does not need an optimization campaign,
and an observability feature needs evidence-coverage criteria in addition to any
performance target.

## Establish the experiment

Read the supplied context and baseline artifacts that are already accessible.
Separate facts inspected directly from user-supplied values and unresolved
inputs. Capture the information that changes the experiment:

| Input | What the goal must make explicit |
| --- | --- |
| Objective | The behavior to improve or comparison to answer, target workload, and reason for the comparison. |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nvidia/srt-slurm/perf-goal-writer@sha256:f8a692f41763bf70

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261003.7f76be2, 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.
