2 things to look at
- no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
- 2 stars2 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Use when: measure system behavior under load to find limits, bottlenecks, and regressions.
SKILL.md
1.0 KB, as published. Nobody here has run it
Goal: know how the system behaves under realistic and peak load.
Use for:
- validating capacity before a launch or sale
- finding bottlenecks and breaking points
- catching performance regressions
Workflow:
- Define the scenario: traffic shape, mix, and target SLOs.
- Model realistic user behavior and data, not uniform hits.
- Ramp load gradually; record latency percentiles and errors.
- Push to the breaking point to find the real limit.
- Correlate results with resource and dependency metrics.
- Fix the top bottleneck, then re-test.
Measure:
- p50/p95/p99 latency, not just averages
- throughput and error rate under load
- resource saturation (CPU, memory, connections)
- downstream dependency limits
Rules:
- test against a production-like environment and data
- look at tail latency; averages hide pain
- change one variable per run to attribute results
- protect real systems; never load-test production blindly
