  • Calls git and node

What it does

Woz Benchmark is an agent skill from WithWoz/wozcode-plugin. Compare WOZCODE vs vanilla Claude Code on the user's codebase — real cost, turn, and time savings. TRIGGER on "compare woz", "how much does woz save", "benchmark woz", "woz vs claude", "show me savings", or /woz-benchmark.

Its SKILL.md is about 790 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: WOZCODE plugin for Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • How much does woz save
  • Show me savings

Example prompts

  • “s codebase — real cost, turn, and time savings. TRIGGER on”
  • “how much does woz save”
  • “benchmark woz”
  • “/woz-benchmark”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(node *), Bash(git *), Bash(ls *), Bash(test *), Bash(mkdir *), Bash(date *), Write, Read

Workflow steps

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

  1. Gather inputs — BE BRIEF
  2. Validate the target
  3. Write a temporary benchmark config
  4. Run the benchmark
  5. Present the results as a savings report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1c76873. 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:

    • Bash(node *)
    • Bash(git *)
    • Bash(ls *)
    • Bash(test *)
    • Bash(mkdir *)
    • Bash(date *)
    • Write
    • Read

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • node

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Woz Benchmark loads about 789 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 365 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~789

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.

Auto-check: notes

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

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:26
    eeded, services running, credentials in `.env`)? Skip if the repo is self-contained."

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 365 words (~789 tokens).

“Run a side-by-side comparison of WOZCODE vs vanilla Claude Code on the user's own codebase. Each prompt runs twice against a fresh copy of the repo with git reset --hard between runs, so the target MUST be a clean git…”
