BF performance-optimization
Optimize software performance through user-journey baselines, profiling, representative benchmarks, controlled experiments, and field verification. Use when asked to make an application, service, workflow, or hot path faster or more efficient, or to build the measurement loop first. Do not use for a reliability incident, capacity forecast, generic product A/B test, or operating a named telemetry or load-testing tool without an optimization objective.

As a process F 41/100 · Will not run — References files that are not bundled: ../site-reliability-engineering/SKILL.md, ../capacity-and-cost-engineering/SKILL.md, ../qa-methodology/SKILL.md
How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works

- low No test case covers injection arriving through data
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
