Powershell-Copilot-Standards: Command for GitHub Copilot

.github/prompts/performance-analysis.prompt.md

performance-analysis is a command for GitHub Copilot from fadwen/Powershell-Copilot-Standards. It costs 5 tokens per session (377 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A PowerShell code assessment that measures execution time, memory use, CPU use, and other resource costs. It examines selected functions, modules, or scripts to find slow sections and possible scaling limits.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to profile code line by line, identify bottlenecks, assess algorithm complexity, inspect memory and resource use, and compare results with a baseline.
Why use it?
It helps replace guesswork with specific evidence about where code is slow, wasteful, or unable to handle larger workloads.

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-analysis 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.

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-analysis is a command published in the GitHub repository fadwen/Powershell-Copilot-Standards (19 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 5 tokens to every session and 377 once invoked, about $0.0000 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 2026-09-16.
