perf-code-paths is a skill that maps the entrypoints and likely hot files for a performance scenario before profiling.

About

This skill identifies the likely implementation paths for a performance scenario before profiling begins. A developer uses it to narrow a codebase to the entrypoints, handlers, and hot files worth investigating. It leans on repo-intel data when available or falls back to grep, and it lists candidate files with symbols and short evidence.

  • Maps code paths, entrypoints, and likely hot files before profiling
  • Uses repo-intel when available or grep for entrypoints and handlers
  • Focuses on Rust, Java, JS/TS, Go, and Python and the top 10-15 relevant files

What it does

Map the likely hot files, entrypoints, and symbols for a performance scenario before profiling.

Who is it for?

Developers narrowing a large codebase to the files worth profiling for a specific slow scenario.

Skip if: Actually profiling or benchmarking; this skill only locates candidate code paths.

When should I use this skill?

You are mapping code paths, entrypoints, and likely hot files before profiling.

What you get

A short list of candidate files and symbols with evidence, ready to profile.

  • candidate file/symbol list
  • keyword list

By the numbers

  • keeps to 10-15 most relevant files
  • supports 5 languages (Rust, Java, JS/TS, Go, Python)

1. Use repo-intel if available; otherwise use grep for entrypoints and handlers. 2. List top candidate files/symbols tied to the scenario. 3. Include imports/exports or call chains when relevant.

Output Format

keywords: <comma-separated list>
paths:
  - file: <path>
    symbols: [<symbol1>, <symbol2>]
    evidence: <short reason>

Constraints

  • Focus only on supported languages (Rust, Java, JS/TS, Go, Python).
  • Keep to the most relevant 10-15 files.
