What it does

Navan Performance Tuning is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Tune a Navan data pipeline against measured vendor, destination, privacy, and deadline constraints. Use when extraction or reconciliation misses its service objective. Trigger with "speed up Navan sync", "Navan latency", or "Navan pipeline performance".

Its SKILL.md is about 920 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code; live or external Navan actions require network access and explicit approval

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Accounting and bookkeeping and Data pipelines and ETL. 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

  • Reconciliation misses its service objective
  • With speed up Navan sync
  • Navan pipeline performance

Example prompts

  • “speed up Navan sync”
  • “Navan latency”
  • “Navan pipeline performance”
  • “/navan-performance-tuning”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code; live or external Navan actions require network access and explicit approval
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

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

  1. Define latency, freshness, throughput, and reconciliation objectives.
  2. Measure each stage with content-free timings and counts.
  3. Identify the narrowest documented source or destination constraint.
  4. Reduce fields, windows, transformations, or round trips before adding concurrency.
  5. Tune bounded queues, checkpoints, backpressure, and destination batches.
  6. Canary changes and compare correctness, privacy, and cost alongside speed.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Write
    • Edit

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code; live or external Navan actions require network access and explicit approval

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Navan Performance Tuning loads about 924 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 368 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~70
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~924
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.2k

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.

Navan Pipeline Performance Tuning

Overview

Tune a Navan data pipeline against measured vendor, destination, privacy, and deadline constraints. This workflow produces an auditable decision or artifact before any live action.

Prerequisites

  • Access to the selected tenant's current Navan Help Center and contracted integration documentation.
  • A named business owner and data owner for the travel or expense workflow.
  • A non-production evidence set with secrets and traveler data removed.

Current Contract

Optimize after measuring time in authentication, source wait, transfer, parsing, mapping, destination, and reconciliation. Preserve correctness and sensitive-data controls before increasing pages, batches, concurrency, or cache duration.

Authentication

Benchmark with non-production or approved synthetic data and least-privilege credentials. Do not expose tenant data in profilers, traces, or third-party performance tools.

Instructions

  1. Define latency, freshness, throughput, and reconciliation objectives.
  2. Measure each stage with content-free timings and counts.
  3. Identify the narrowest documented source or destination constraint.
  4. Reduce fields, windows, transformations, or round trips before adding concurrency.
  5. Tune bounded queues, checkpoints, backpressure, and destination batches.
  6. Canary changes and compare correctness, privacy, and cost alongside speed.

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect documentation, schemas, configuration, code, fixtures, and evidence. Use Write and Edit only for approved repository artifacts. Invocation alone does not authorize network access, credentials, traveler or expense data, bookings, payments, policy or identity changes, file transfers, deployments, or deletion.

Show full SKILL.md (143 more words)Show less

Approval Boundaries

Load tests, production traces, cache or retention changes, higher concurrency, new infrastructure, and deadline tradeoffs require approval.

Error Handling

  • Do not optimize by dropping reconciliation or redaction.
  • A faster partial sync is a failure.
  • Roll back when errors, queue age, or unexplained totals worsen.

Output

Return baseline and candidate measurements, bottleneck evidence, chosen controls, correctness deltas, and rollback threshold. Identify assumptions, owners, expirations, and evidence gaps explicitly.

Examples

  • Reduce an oversized extraction window before raising concurrency.
  • Batch destination writes while keeping source checkpoints durable.

Validation

Run cold, steady, burst, throttled, destination-slow, restart, and rollback scenarios with identical fixtures. Record expected and observed results, including fail-closed behavior.

Resources

  • Current first-party evidence map — recheck dated sources and the selected tenant's in-account contract before relying on mutable endpoints, fields, entitlements, limits, or delivery behavior.
  • Record tenant observations as environment-specific evidence, never universal Navan guarantees.
