interaction-latency

interaction-latency is a skill for Claude Code from nexus-labs-automation/mobile-observability. It costs 35 tokens per session (341 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A measurement guide for timing an action from a user tap until it finishes. It applies to operations such as submitting a form, adding an item to a cart, or liking something.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to measure button-response times, form submissions, add-to-cart actions, likes, and other tap-triggered operations.
Why use it?
It prevents performance measurements from stopping too early, and includes both successful and failed outcomes.

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

interaction-latency 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 10d 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 it actually says

Interaction Latency

Time from user tap to action successfully completed.

When to Use

  • "Add to cart" button tapped → cart updated
  • "Submit" button tapped → form processed
  • "Like" button tapped → state changed
  • Any tap that triggers async work

Measurement Pattern

TAP → START_SPAN → [async work] → END_SPAN
  1. Capture tap timestamp
  2. Start span with operation name
  3. End span when action confirms success
  4. Include success/failure outcome

Key Thresholds

Rating Duration
Good <300ms
Acceptable <1s
Poor >1s

Implementation

See references/ui-performance.md (Entry Point Latency section) for platform-specific code.

Common Mistakes

  • Ending span on API call start (not completion)
  • Not tracking failure cases
  • Missing the tap timestamp (starting late)
  • See skills/navigation-latency for screen-to-screen transitions (vs single-tap actions)
  • Combine with skills/user-journey-tracking for friction detection on key interactions
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.
