What it does

Benchmarking is an agent skill from Signet-AI/signetai. Benchmark Signet memory with MemoryBench: regression-check Dreaming and recall changes, compare models, diagnose score drops, and record results; NOT for the prompt-submit latency benchmark.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 17 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/diagnosing-results.md`, `references/full-runs.md` and `references/model-portability.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Sync and store memories, shared identity files (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md), session transcripts, institutional knowledge, and secrets between all of your favorite harnesses and models.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/benchmarking”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa4c499. 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

    Ships 6 files in scripts/ (TypeScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • bun

    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

Benchmarking loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 786 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.2k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:46
    Keys live in the gitignored `memorybench/.env`, which the bench loads itself; do not read it aloud or copy it elsewhere.

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 786 words (~1,462 tokens).

“Signet's memory quality is measured with MemoryBench (memorybench/) running against an isolated Signet daemon. This skill covers the workflows for running and interpreting those benchmarks. web/docs/src/content/docs/benchmarking.md and memorybench/README.md own the command, flag, and benchmark documentation; read them rather than relying…”

Benchmarking is an agent skill from Signet-AI/signetai. Benchmark Signet memory with MemoryBench: regression-check Dreaming and recall changes, compare models, diagnose score drops, and record results; NOT for the prompt-submit latency benchmark.

When should I use Benchmarking?

Benchmarking fits situations like: agent Workflows work in your project.

How do I install Benchmarking in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add Signet-AI/signetai --skill benchmarking -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/benchmarking in Signet-AI/signetai) into .claude/skills/benchmarking in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Benchmarking in Codex?

Run `npx skills add Signet-AI/signetai --skill benchmarking -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/benchmarking in Signet-AI/signetai) into .agents/skills/benchmarking in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Benchmarking in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Signet-AI/signetai --skill benchmarking -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/benchmarking, .gemini/skills/benchmarking, .github/skills/benchmarking and .opencode/skills/benchmarking in your project.

What does Benchmarking need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Benchmarking needs TypeScript for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (bun). Our summary lists: Node.js.

Does Benchmarking access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Benchmarking safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Benchmarking use?

Benchmarking has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.

How many tokens does Benchmarking use?

About 1.5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 3.7k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.

What are the alternatives to Benchmarking?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Benchmarking: MCP Server Builder (anthropics/skills, 180k stars), Hook Development for Claude Code Plugins (anthropics/claude-plugins-official, 38k stars), Using Superpowers (farm-fe/farm, 5.6k stars) and Executing Plans Inline (obra/superpowers, 297k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
