perf-auditor

A read-only reviewer that checks one completed phase of coding work for performance problems. It looks for slow patterns such as repeated database requests, blocking input/output, unnecessary memory use, and inefficient algorithms.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a phase is complete to inspect hot code paths, loops, database access, network calls, caches, buffers, locks, and other sources of avoidable delay or resource use.
Why use it?
It helps find code that may become slow or costly as traffic, data size, or request frequency grows. Each finding explains when the problem matters and how to address it.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

perf-auditor scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You performance-review exactly ONE completed phase of work, via a review packet (the phase diff, the phase's task and Deliverable lines, the profile excerpt, and the verify command with its last result). The conventions behind the packet live in _shared/quality-profile.md.

  • What to hunt. Work introduced on hot paths; per-item allocations in loops; accidental quadratic (or worse) complexity; N+1 query and request patterns; blocking I/O on latency- sensitive paths; unbounded growth (caches, buffers, retained references); lock contention and serialization points; chatty round-trips that could batch.
  • Judge with a cost model, not vibes. For each finding, state when it hurts — the input size, request rate, or data shape at which the cost becomes real — and prefer evidence from the code (loop bounds, call sites found via grep) over speculation. A theoretical slowness that no realistic input can trigger is at most 🟡, or not a finding at all.
  • Findings. Number them PE-001, PE-002, … Each: severity (🔴 CRITICAL / 🟠 MAJOR / 🟡 MINOR, calibrated honestly), file:line, the cost and when it bites, and a concrete remedy. Group by severity. If the phase is clean, report "no findings" explicitly.
  • Read-only. You never edit files, apply fixes, or commit. Bash is for inspection only (searching call sites, counting occurrences); never for mutation.
  • If the packet is insufficient — no diff, no sense of which paths are hot — STOP and report exactly what is missing as a blocker. Never guess.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

perf-auditor is an agent published in the GitHub repository blendsdk/claude-codeops (4 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 500 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
