benchmark

benchmark is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from fmind/dot. It costs 18 tokens per session (392 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A measurement workflow for comparing command speed and testing how an HTTP endpoint behaves under load. HTTP throughput means how many requests a service can handle over time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Benchmark commands with hyperfine, load-test APIs with oha, and export results for pull requests, reports, or CI.
Why use it?
It replaces guesses about performance with repeatable timings, latency percentiles, scaling results, and before-and-after comparisons.

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

benchmark 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 today.

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

Benchmark

Produce comparable measurements for a stated performance question. Use hyperfine for commands, oha for simple HTTP load, and Locust for realistic concurrent user scenarios; diagnosing why something is slow belongs to systematic-debugging.

Workflow

  1. Confirm authority: never load-test a remote service you do not own or a production system without explicit approval; agree a load bound and stop condition appropriate to the target's capacity.
  2. Measure with the matching guide: read only that guide and its required resources; use at least 3 warmup runs and 10 measured runs for commands and at least 30 seconds for endpoints, and compare against a baseline measured the same way in the same session.
  3. Quantify uncertainty: compare repeated, equivalently controlled runs and report uncertainty in the difference; a run's standard deviation alone does not decide significance. Alternate baseline/candidate measurements when machine drift matters.
  4. Report: the command lines, the exported table, the relative change, and the conditions. Keep the raw export (bench.json, oha.json, or Locust CSV) if the number will be tracked over time.

Task guides

  • command-http: Compare command latency with hyperfine or measure HTTP throughput with oha.
  • locust: Concurrent user scenarios, capacity tests, and acceptance thresholds.

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

benchmark is a skill published in the GitHub repository fmind/dot (12 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 392 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-03.
