performance-testing

performance-testing is a skill for Claude Code from summarybotng/summarybot-ng. It costs 26 tokens per session (2,160 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for testing application performance, including how systems behave under normal traffic, sudden spikes, prolonged use, or beyond their expected capacity. It also covers scalability and monitoring during tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Planning load, stress, spike, endurance, and scalability tests; defining response-time and error targets; and monitoring infrastructure while tests run.
Why use it?
It helps reveal slow paths, capacity limits, resource exhaustion, and bottlenecks before users encounter them.

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-testing 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 3d 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.

Performance Testing

<default_to_action> When testing performance or planning load tests:

  1. DEFINE SLOs: p95 response time, throughput, error rate targets
  2. IDENTIFY critical paths: revenue flows, high-traffic pages, key APIs
  3. CREATE realistic scenarios: user journeys, think time, varied data
  4. EXECUTE with monitoring: CPU, memory, DB queries, network
  5. ANALYZE bottlenecks and fix before production

Quick Test Type Selection:

  • Expected load validation → Load testing
  • Find breaking point → Stress testing
  • Sudden traffic spike → Spike testing
  • Memory leaks, resource exhaustion → Endurance/soak testing
  • Horizontal/vertical scaling → Scalability testing

Critical Success Factors:

  • Performance is a feature, not an afterthought
  • Test early and often, not just before release
  • Focus on user-impacting bottlenecks </default_to_action>

Quick Reference Card

When to Use

  • Before major releases
  • After infrastructure changes
  • Before scaling events (Black Friday)
  • When setting SLAs/SLOs

Test Types

Type Purpose When
Load Expected traffic Every release
Stress Beyond capacity Quarterly
Spike Sudden surge Before events
Endurance Memory leaks After code changes
Scalability Scaling validation Infrastructure changes

Key Metrics

Metric Target Why
p95 response < 200ms User experience
Throughput 10k req/min Capacity
Error rate < 0.1% Reliability
CPU < 70% Headroom
Memory < 80% Stability

Tools

  • k6: Modern, JS-based, CI/CD friendly
  • JMeter: Enterprise, feature-rich
  • Artillery: Simple YAML configs
  • Gatling: Scala, great reporting

Agent Coordination

  • qe-performance-tester: Load test orchestration
  • qe-quality-analyzer: Results analysis
  • qe-production-intelligence: Production comparison

Defining SLOs

Bad: "The system should be fast" Good: "p95 response time < 200ms under 1,000 concurrent users"

What ships with it

3 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.

performance-testing is a skill published in the GitHub repository summarybotng/summarybot-ng (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 2,160 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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.
