# Audit performance claims with Pstack benchmark-checklist

Check tuning, bottlenecks, correctness, repeatability, and end-to-end relevance before an agent reports a measured speedup or regression.

## Prerequisites

Agent Skills-compatible coding agent; Node.js/npm for the documented skills installer; project benchmark harness; relevant runtime profiler and host diagnostics

## Installation

Install or set up from the source-backed instructions:

Run npx skills add backnotprop/pstack, select benchmark-checklist in the interactive skill list, then choose your supported agent.
