What it does

Perf Change is an agent skill from mattias800/prosper. Make, measure and land a prosper performance change - a switch for the A/B, a same-binary A/B on reference workloads, and a recorded verdict either way.

Its SKILL.md is about 920 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: A user-space PlayStation 5 to PC compatibility layer for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Example prompts

  • “/perf-change”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9818c8b. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    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

Perf Change loads about 923 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 475 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~923

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 475 words (~923 tokens).

“Preserve task authorization, resource coordination and LOCAL.md; this skill grants no additional authority. It does not authorize GPU runs, claiming a GPU lease, pushing or merging — follow the task and prosper/docs/process/GAME_COMPAT_ORCHESTRATION.md for those.”
