Use when setting up monitoring or observability. Trigger with phrases like 'monitor', 'metrics', or 'alerts'.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/README.md`, `references/README.md` and `scripts/README.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Observability. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to monitor cpu usage
  • Setting up monitoring
  • With phrases like monitor

Example prompts

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code

    • Read

Context cost

Monitoring Cpu Usage loads about 957 tokens when it runs, and up to ~972 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 401 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~957
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~972

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Cpu Usage Monitor

Identify CPU hotspots, analyze algorithmic complexity, and detect blocking operations in application code with targeted optimization recommendations.

Overview

This skill empowers Claude to analyze code for CPU-intensive operations, offering detailed optimization recommendations to improve processor utilization. By pinpointing areas of high CPU usage, it facilitates targeted improvements for enhanced application performance.

How It Works

  1. Initiate CPU Monitoring: Claude activates the cpu-usage-monitor plugin.
  2. Code Analysis: The plugin analyzes the codebase for computationally expensive operations, synchronous blocking calls, inefficient loops, and regex patterns.
  3. Optimization Recommendations: Claude provides a detailed report outlining areas for optimization, including suggestions for algorithmic improvements, asynchronous processing, and regex optimization.

When to Use This Skill

This skill activates when you need to:

  • Identify CPU bottlenecks in your application.
  • Optimize application performance by reducing CPU load.
  • Analyze code for computationally intensive operations.

Examples

Example 1: Identifying CPU Hotspots

User request: "Monitor CPU usage in my Python script and suggest optimizations."

The skill will:

  1. Analyze the provided Python script for CPU-intensive functions.
  2. Identify potential bottlenecks such as inefficient loops or complex regex patterns.
  3. Provide recommendations for optimizing the code, such as using more efficient algorithms or asynchronous operations.
Example 2: Analyzing Algorithmic Complexity

User request: "Analyze the CPU load of this Java code and identify areas with high algorithmic complexity."

The skill will:

  1. Analyze the provided Java code, focusing on algorithmic complexity (e.g., O(n^2) or worse).
  2. Pinpoint specific methods or sections of code with high complexity.
  3. Suggest alternative algorithms or data structures to improve performance.

Best Practices

  • Targeted Analysis: Focus the analysis on specific sections of code known to be CPU-intensive.
  • Asynchronous Operations: Consider using asynchronous operations to prevent blocking the main thread.
  • Regex Optimization: Carefully review and optimize regular expressions for performance.

Integration

This skill can be used in conjunction with other code analysis and refactoring tools to implement the suggested optimizations. It can also be integrated into CI/CD pipelines to automatically monitor CPU usage and identify performance regressions.

Prerequisites

  • Appropriate file access permissions
  • Required dependencies installed

Instructions

  1. Invoke this skill when the trigger conditions are met
  2. Provide necessary context and parameters
  3. Review the generated output
  4. Apply modifications as needed

Output

The skill produces structured output relevant to the task.

Error Handling

  • Invalid input: Prompts for correction
  • Missing dependencies: Lists required components
  • Permission errors: Suggests remediation steps
