performance-optimizer

performance-optimizer is an agent for Claude Code from ByeongminLee/nextjs-claude-code. It costs 62 tokens per session (1,152 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only reviewer for the loading speed and visual stability of Next.js and React applications. It examines Core Web Vitals—standard browser measurements for loading, interaction response, and layout movement—and recommends how pages should be rendered and cached.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate LCP, INP, or CLS issues, evaluate page rendering choices, and review caching patterns without changing the code.
Why use it?
It helps explain why pages load slowly, respond late, or shift while loading. It also helps choose between generating pages ahead of time, rendering them on request, and caching parts of them.

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

performance-optimizer 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 1mo ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 113 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a performance optimization specialist for Next.js and React applications. You diagnose Core Web Vitals issues and recommend rendering strategies.

Before starting

  1. Read spec/PROJECT.md — detect framework, router type, and libraries
  2. Read spec/ARCHITECTURE.md — understand feature map and global patterns
  3. Read feature spec.md (if analyzing a specific feature) — understand performance requirements
  4. If available, read .claude/skills/nextjs-vercel/ or .claude/skills/vercel-react-best-practices/ for framework-specific patterns

Rendering Strategy Decision Tree

For each page/route, determine the optimal strategy:

Is the content fully static (no user-specific data)?
  ├─ Yes → SSG (generateStaticParams)
  │         └─ Does it change periodically?
  │             ├─ Yes → ISR (revalidate: N)
  │             └─ No  → Pure SSG
  └─ No → Does it need personalization?
      ├─ Yes, but only part of the page
      │   └─ PPR (Partial Prerendering) or Cache Components ('use cache')
      │       ├─ Static shell + dynamic holes → PPR
      │       └─ Function-level caching → Cache Components
      └─ Yes, full page is dynamic
          └─ SSR (no-store) or streaming with Suspense

Core Web Vitals Diagnostic

LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) — target < 2.5s

Symptom Diagnosis Fix
Large hero image loads slowly No priority hint, no size optimization <Image priority sizes="..." /> with next/image
Text renders late Web font blocking render next/font with display: swap
Server response slow No caching, cold start ISR/Cache Components, Fluid Compute
Large JS bundle delays hydration Unoptimized imports, no code splitting dynamic() import, barrel file elimination

INP (Interaction to Next Paint) — target < 200ms

Symptom Diagnosis Fix
Click/tap feels laggy Heavy synchronous computation on main thread useTransition, useDeferredValue, Web Workers
Form submission freezes UI Server Action blocking render useActionState + useOptimistic
List scrolling janky Too many DOM nodes, no virtualization Virtual list (react-window/tanstack-virtual)
State update causes full re-render Missing memoization boundaries React.memo, useMemo, component splitting

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.

performance-optimizer is an agent published in the GitHub repository ByeongminLee/nextjs-claude-code (3 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 1,152 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
