ulw-perf

ulw-perf is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rlaope/oh-my-hermes. It costs 106 tokens per session (1,863 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow skill for finding the source of slow, expensive, or memory-heavy code through measurements and then testing focused improvements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to establish a baseline, investigate likely hot spots one at a time, make executor-owned changes, and check for regressions.
Why use it?
It prevents performance changes from being based on guesses or unverified claims.

About the project

oh-my-hermes is an operating layer for Hermes Agent that organizes requests into workflows for planning, research, creation, coding handoffs, operations, and project memory. Hermes users run these workflows through the desktop app, CLI, or messenger app, while the catalogue add-ons extend its native capabilities.

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

ulw-perf 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 5d 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.

Ultraperf

This is an OMH ultraperf workflow skill, projected for Agent Skills hosts (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, opencode, OpenClaw, pi).

Why This Exists

ultraperf exists because most performance work starts unlocalized: something is slow, leaking, or expensive and nobody knows where. It forces measurement before edits, one hypothesis at a time, executor-owned changes, and a regression budget, so an optimization loop cannot end in unverified claims.

Do Not Use When

  • The ask is to judge code quality, structure, or correctness rather than measured cost; use omh-code-review.
  • The ask is to score model or agent output quality on a task suite.
  • The request is a settings-only change, one bounded edit that is explicitly low-risk and has a direct owner and verification path, or one already-identified slow query or hotspot fix; handle it directly instead of opening a performance loop.

Examples

Good example:

  • Prompt: $ultraperf checkout feels slow and the worker memory keeps climbing - find where and fix it
  • Expected behavior: Audit the baseline, name the evaluator command, rank hot-path hypotheses, hand the smallest reversible fix to the selected executor, re-measure, and state the budget delta.
  • Why: The problem is real but unlocalized across more than one domain.

Bad example:

  • Prompt: $ultraperf make the recommender p95 under 200ms; baseline 340ms, benchmark is 'make bench'
  • Expected behavior: Skip the discovery audit: record 340ms as the baseline and make bench as the evaluator command, then hand the fix to the selected executor and re-measure against the 200ms target.
  • Why: A single declared measurable goal does not need a discovery loop.

Completion Checklist

  • Baseline, workload, environment, and evaluator command are recorded before any edit is proposed.
  • Each accepted fix names the measured hot path, the reversible change, and its owner.
  • Re-measured deltas cite observed evidence; unmeasured steps stay not_observed.
  • The regression budget and the gate that enforces it are stated with the tolerance.

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.

It adds 106 tokens to every session and 1,863 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
