What it does

Nestjs Performance is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Optimize NestJS throughput with Fastify adapter, singleton scope enforcement, compression, and query projections. Use when switching to Fastify, diagnosing request-scoped bottlenecks, or profiling API overhead.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json` and `references/example.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs. It works with NestJS and Fastify. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Switching to Fastify
  • Diagnosing request-scoped bottlenecks
  • Profiling API overhead

Example prompts

  • “/nestjs-performance”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Switch to Fastify — Replace Express with FastifyAdapter for ~2x throughput.
  2. Enable compression — Add Gzip/Brotli middleware.
  3. Audit provider scopes — Ensure no unintended REQUEST scope chains.
  4. Add query projections — Use select: [] on all repository queries.
  5. Profile overhead — Benchmark Total Duration, DB Execution, and API Overhead.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Nestjs Performance loads about 961 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 382 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~961
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Performance Tuning

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Workflow: Performance Audit

  1. Switch to Fastify — Replace Express with FastifyAdapter for ~2x throughput.
  2. Enable compression — Add Gzip/Brotli middleware.
  3. Audit provider scopes — Ensure no unintended REQUEST scope chains.
  4. Add query projections — Use select: [] on all repository queries.
  5. Profile overhead — Benchmark Total Duration, DB Execution, and API Overhead.

Fastify + Compression Setup

See implementation examples

  • Keep-Alive: Configure http.Agent keep-alive settings to reuse TCP connections for upstream services.

Scope & Dependency Injection

  • Default Scope: Adhere to SINGLETON scope (default).
  • Request Scope: AVOID REQUEST scope unless absolutely necessary.
  • Pro Tip: single request-scoped service makes its entire injection chain request-scoped.
  • Solution: Use Durable Providers (durable: true) for multi-tenancy.
  • Lazy Loading: Use LazyModuleLoader for heavyweight modules (e.g., Admin panels).

Caching Strategy

  • Application Cache: Use @nestjs/cache-manager for computation results.
  • Deep Dive: See Caching & Redis for L1/L2 strategies and Invalidation patterns.
  • HTTP Cache: Set Cache-Control headers for client-side caching (CDN/Browser).
  • Distributed: In microservices, use Redis store, not memory store.

Queues & Async Processing

  • Offloading: Never block HTTP request for long-running tasks (Emails, Reports, webhooks).
  • Tool: Use @nestjs/bull (BullMQ) or RabbitMQ (@nestjs/microservices).
  • Pattern: Producer (Controller) -> Queue -> Consumer (Processor).

Serialization

  • Warning: class-transformer CPU expensive.
  • Optimization: For high-throughput READ endpoints, consider manual mapping or using fast-json-stringify (built-in fastify serialization) instead of interceptors.

Database Tuning

  • Projections: Always use select: [] to fetch only needed columns.
  • N+1: Prevent N+1 queries by using relations carefully or DataLoader for Graph/Field resolvers.
  • Connection Pooling: Configure pool size (e.g., pool: { min: 2, max: 10 }) in config to match DB limits.

Profiling & Scaling

  • API Overhead vs DB Execution: Use "Execution Bucket" strategy to continuously benchmark Total Duration, DB Execution Time, and API Overhead.
  • Total Baseline: Excellent (< 50ms), Acceptable (< 200ms), Poor (> 500ms). Exception: Authentication routes (e.g. bcrypt/argon2) should take 300-500ms intentionally.
  • DB Execution Baseline: Excellent (< 5ms), Acceptable (< 30ms), Poor (> 100ms - implies missing index or N+1 problem).
  • API Overhead Baseline: Excellent (< 20ms), Poor (> 100ms - implies heavy synchronous processing or serialization blocking Node's event loop).
  • Offloading: Move CPU-heavy tasks (Image processing, Crypto) to worker_threads.
  • Clustering: For non-containerized environments, use ClusterModule to utilize all CPU cores. In K8s, prefer ReplicaSets.

Anti-Patterns

  • No REQUEST scope without evaluation: One REQUEST-scoped provider makes entire chain request-scoped.
  • No CPU tasks in HTTP handler: Offload image/crypto work to worker_threads or BullMQ.
  • No unprojected queries: Always select: [] needed columns to avoid serializing unused data.
