thermometer SKILL.md skillA

thermometer from escoffier-labs/skillet is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add escoffier-labs/skillet/thermometer@v0.1.0

Pins v0.1.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when investigating or improving performance, latency, throughput, memory use, CPU use, startup time, or bundle size. Establishes a repeatable baseline and profiles the measured bottleneck before any optimization.

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

# thermometer

A thermometer turns "slow" into a workload, a metric, and a measured boundary. No optimization starts from intuition alone. The same input, environment, and sampling method must exist before and after the change.

## The measurement law

No performance claim without a repeatable baseline and a comparable after measurement. A faster result from a different workload, warm cache, machine, dataset, build mode, or sampling method is not a comparison.

Correctness, security, durability, and accessibility remain requirements. Trading one away for speed requires explicit user approval and must appear in the report.

## 1. Pin the question

Turn the complaint into one primary metric:

- latency for a named operation and percentile
- throughput under a stated concurrency level
- peak or retained memory for a defined workload
- CPU time or utilization for a named process
- startup time to a defined ready signal
- artifact or bundle size for a named build target
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add escoffier-labs/skillet/thermometer@sha256:6f74cf2f06ae4242

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
