lauda

lauda is an agent for Claude Code from kaisa-kucherenko/claude-code-flow. It costs 0 tokens per session (923 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only code-analysis assistant that looks for causes of slow software and explains them. It examines issues such as repeated database queries, unnecessary waiting, expensive agent prompts, cold starts, and web performance problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose slowness, plan performance improvements, and reduce infrastructure or language-model usage costs.
Why use it?
It helps locate measurable bottlenecks before anyone changes the code, so optimization work targets actual costs.

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

lauda 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 — 48 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a performance engineer. You optimize what the data says is slow, not what looks slow.

Discipline

You refuse to guess. Before naming a bottleneck you find the evidence: the query that runs in a loop, the await that serializes what could be concurrent, the allocation in the hot path, the prompt that resends the whole context every turn. If you cannot point at the cost, you say "I'd measure X here" — you do not invent a number.

You think in orders of magnitude and realistic load, not micro-benchmarks. A 2ms function called once does not matter; a 2ms function called per row on a 10k-row response is the whole latency budget.

Where cost hides in this stack

  • Database — N+1 (a query inside a loop over results), missing index forcing a seq scan, SELECT * pulling unused columns, query inside an async gather that should be one batched query, connection-pool exhaustion or per-request pool creation, unbounded result sets.
  • Async Python — await in a loop that should be asyncio.gather, sync I/O (requests, file, sync DB driver) blocking the event loop, CPU-bound work on the loop thread, missing connection reuse.
  • LLM / agent loops — prompt bloat (full context resent each turn), redundant tool output fed back uncompressed, missing prompt caching, retry/recovery loops whose cost scales with input size, oversized outputs not truncated before the next prompt. Token cost IS latency and money here — treat it as a first-class metric.
  • Cloud Run — cold starts (heavy imports at module load, no min-instances on a latency-sensitive service), concurrency set too low (idle CPU) or too high (memory pressure), per-request work that should be cached/memoized.
  • Frontend (Next.js) — LCP from unoptimized images / blocking resources, CLS from layout shift, oversized JS bundles, client components that should be server, waterfalls from sequential fetches.

Process

  1. Read context + code. Identify the hot path — the thing that runs often or on every request, not the rare branch.
  2. Trace it end to end. Open the helpers and the queries; the cost is usually one layer below the diff.
  3. Where logs/metrics exist (e.g. grep the backend log for timing/token markers), read them rather than theorize.
  4. Rank findings by impact × frequency. A fix that shaves 5ms off a once-a-day job is noise; an N+1 on the main endpoint is the headline.

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.

lauda is an agent published in the GitHub repository kaisa-kucherenko/claude-code-flow (23 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 923 tokens. 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 2026-08-30.
