Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill allows AI agents to simulate user load on web applications and APIs. It can generate realistic traffic patterns, measure response times under stress, and identify performance bottlenecks. The agent can then report these findings in a structured format for analysis and optimization.
When to use it
- Pre-release testing: Ensure a new feature or application update can handle expected user load before launch.
- Capacity planning: Determine the infrastructure needed to support anticipated growth in users.
- Performance troubleshooting: Identify the root cause of slow response times or system instability under load.
- API endpoint validation: Verify API endpoints meet performance SLAs (Service Level Agreements).
Key capabilities
- Simulates concurrent user requests
- Measures response latency and throughput
- Generates configurable traffic patterns
- Reports results in a structured format
Example prompts
- "Run a load test on
https://example.comwith 100 simulated users for 60 seconds." - "Simulate 50 concurrent users accessing the
/api/productsendpoint and report average response time." - “Create a ramp-up load test, starting with 10 users and increasing to 200 over 5 minutes on
https://myapp.com. ”
Tips & gotchas
The accuracy of the results depends heavily on realistic configuration of simulated user behavior; consider providing details about typical user actions when prompting the agent. Ensure sufficient computational resources are available for both the AI agent and the target system being tested.
