At a glance

Analyzes code for performance bottlenecks, algorithmic complexity, database queries, memory usage, and scalability.

  • Works in 6 steps: Algorithmic Complexity → Database Performance → Memory Management → …
  • SKILL.md covers Core Analysis Framework, Performance Benchmarks, Analysis Output Format and Code Review Approach, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Performance Oracle is an agent skill from udecode/plate. Analyzes code for performance bottlenecks, algorithmic complexity, database queries, memory usage, and scalability. Use after implementing features or when performance concerns arise.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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: Rich-text editor with AI and shadcn/ui.

Example prompts

  • “Use the performance-oracle skill to analyz code for performance bottlenecks, algorithmic complexity, database queries, memory usage, and scalability”
  • “/performance-oracle”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Algorithmic Complexity
  2. Database Performance
  3. Memory Management
  4. Caching Opportunities
  5. Network Optimization
  6. Frontend Performance

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a860762. 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

Performance Oracle loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 694 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

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 694 words (~1,475 tokens).

“Context: The user has just implemented a new feature that processes user data. user: "I've implemented the user analytics feature. Can you check if it will scale?" assistant: "I'll use the performance-oracle agent to analyze the scalability and performance characteristics…”
