webperf-core-web-vitals

webperf-core-web-vitals is a skill for Claude Code from nucliweb/webperf-snippets. It costs 113 tokens per session (3,345 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A browser-based toolkit for measuring Core Web Vitals, which are standard signals for how quickly a page loads, stays visually stable, and responds to input. It measures LCP, CLS, and INP and guides follow-up debugging.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit Core Web Vitals, investigate slow Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), layout shifts, or interaction delays, and inspect loading details such as server response and rendering time.
Why use it?
It helps identify whether a website feels slow, shifts while loading, or responds late to clicks and other interactions. The guided checks help narrow down possible causes after a measurement.

About the project

WebPerf Snippets is a collection of JavaScript snippets that run in browser developer tools to measure and debug website performance. It helps developers investigate Core Web Vitals, loading, interaction responsiveness, images, video, scripts, and other performance issues. Its catalogue skills, setting, and instruction support agent-assisted use of the snippets.

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

webperf-core-web-vitals 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 7 executable files (scripts/CLS.js, scripts/INP.js, scripts/LCP-Image-Entropy.js, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

WebPerf: Core Web Vitals

JavaScript snippets for measuring web performance in Chrome DevTools.

Running a script

  1. Run the script with mcp__chrome-devtools__evaluate_script and read the object it returns. The scripts have no console output, so the returned object is the result: script, status and the metric data (value, rating, details, items, issues), as described in references/schema.md.
  2. When status is "tracking", the script keeps observing the page. After the interactions, call the function named in getDataFn with another mcp__chrome-devtools__evaluate_script call, for example getINP(), and read the object it returns.
  3. When status is "error" or "unsupported", read error: the page may not have loaded yet, or the browser lacks the API.

Without Chrome DevTools MCP, run the same snippet with the webperf-snippets CLI, which loads the page in headless Chromium and prints the same result objects: npx webperf-snippets <url> --snippet <Name> --json, where <Name> is the script name without .js. It needs Playwright and Chromium (npm install --save-dev webperf-snippets playwright, then npx playwright install chromium), and tracking snippets take --interact-script <file> to drive the interactions.

Scripts

  • scripts/CLS.js — Cumulative layout shift (CLS)
  • scripts/INP.js — Interaction to next paint (INP)
  • scripts/LCP-Image-Entropy.js — LCP image entropy
  • scripts/LCP-Subparts.js — LCP subparts
  • scripts/LCP-Trail.js — LCP trail
  • scripts/LCP-Video-Candidate.js — LCP video candidate
  • scripts/LCP.js — Largest contentful paint (LCP)

Common Workflows

Complete Core Web Vitals Audit

When the user asks for a comprehensive Core Web Vitals analysis or "audit CWV":

  1. LCP.js - Measure Largest Contentful Paint
  2. CLS.js - Measure Cumulative Layout Shift
  3. INP.js - Measure Interaction to Next Paint
  4. LCP-Subparts.js - Break down LCP timing phases
  5. LCP-Trail.js - Track LCP candidate evolution
