SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Performance issues are often discovered too late, and gut-feel optimization wastes effort on the wrong code. This Skill provides a structured static-analysis workflow that identifies CPU, memory, rendering, and I/O hotspots, measures them against defined performance budgets, and produces a prioritized optimization report. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Scoped Profiling: Profile a single named system or run a comprehensive full-codebase analysis via the argument hint. - Budget Comparison: Reads target FPS, memory, load time, and draw call budgets from design docs and flags each metric as OK, WARNING, or OVER. - Prioritized Report: Generates a Markdown report with hotspots (file:line, impact, fix effort), ranked recommendations, quick wins, and areas needing runtime profiling. - Use Case: A game developer notices frame drops before launch. Invoke the skill with 'full' to get a table of hotspots in per-frame update loops, allocation patterns, and draw call estimates, plus the top three fixes ranked by expected gain. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run a performance profile on the rendering system and report the top hotspots against the 60fps frame budget.

Frequently Asked Questions about perf-profile

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I profile my codebase for performance bottlenecks?▼

Invoke the skill with a system name to scope the analysis, or use 'full' for a comprehensive profile. It examines per-frame update functions, allocation patterns, physics queries, and rendering costs, then outputs a prioritized hotspot report.

How to check if my game meets a 60fps frame budget?▼

The skill reads performance budgets from design docs or CLAUDE.md, such as a 16.67ms frame budget for 60fps. It estimates current cost per metric and marks each as OK, WARNING, or OVER in the generated report.

Can static analysis replace runtime performance profiling?▼

No. Static analysis identifies candidate hotspots like nested loops and per-frame allocations, but the skill explicitly flags areas requiring runtime profiling to confirm actual impact. Measure on target hardware before optimizing.

What performance issues does the analysis detect?▼

It targets CPU issues like expensive per-frame functions and string operations in hot paths, memory issues like leaks and missing object pooling, rendering issues like overdraw and missing LODs, and I/O issues like synchronous asset loading.

When should I not optimize based on this report?▼

Avoid optimizing without runtime measurement, since static estimates can misrank true bottlenecks. The report distinguishes CPU-bound, GPU-bound, and I/O-bound candidates so you confirm the actual constraint first.
