How it fires

How this agent gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Comprehensive Benchmark Suite

**Startup Performance Benchmarks**

class StartupBenchmarks {
  async benchmarkColdStart(): Promise<BenchmarkResult> {
    const startTime = performance.now();

    // Measure CLI initialization
    await this.initializeCLI();
    const cliTime = performance.now() - startTime;

    // Measure MCP server startup
    const mcpStart = performance.now();
    await this.initializeMCPServer();
    const mcpTime = performance.now() - mcpStart;

    // Measure agent spawn latency
    const spawnStart = performance.now();
    await this.spawnTestAgent();
    const spawnTime = performance.now() - spawnStart;

    return {
      total: performance.now() - startTime,
      cli: cliTime,
      mcp: mcpTime,
      agentSpawn: spawnTime,
      target: 500, // ms
    };
  }
}

**Memory Operation Benchmarks**

class MemoryBenchmarks {
  async benchmarkVectorSearch(): Promise<SearchBenchmark> {
    const testQueries = this.generateTestQueries(10000);

    // Baseline: Current linear search
    const baselineStart = performance.now();
    for (const query of testQueries) {
      await this.currentMemory.search(query);
    }
    const baselineTime = performance.now() - baselineStart;

    // Target: HNSW search
    const hnswStart = performance.now();
    for (const query of testQueries) {
      await this.agentDBMemory.hnswSearch(query);
    }
    const hnswTime = performance.now() - hnswStart;

    const improvement = baselineTime / hnswTime;

    return {
      baseline: baselineTime,
      hnsw: hnswTime,
      improvement,
      targetRange: [150, 12500],
      achieved: improvement >= 150,
    };
  }

  async benchmarkMemoryUsage(): Promise<MemoryBenchmark> {
    const baseline = process.memoryUsage();

    // Load test data
    await this.loadTestDataset();
    const withData = process.memoryUsage();

    // Test compression
    await this.enableMemoryOptimization();
    const optimized = process.memoryUsage();

    const reduction =
      (withData.heapUsed - optimized.heapUsed) / withData.heapUsed;

    return {
      baseline: baseline.heapUsed,
      withData: withData.heapUsed,
      optimized: optimized.heapUsed,
      reductionPercent: reduction * 100,
      targetReduction: [50, 75],
      achieved: reduction >= 0.5,
    };
  }

**Swarm Coordination Benchmarks**

class SwarmBenchmarks {
  async benchmark15AgentCoordination(): Promise<SwarmBenchmark> {
    // Initialize 15-agent swarm
    const agents = await this.spawn15Agents();

    // Measure coordination latency
    const coordinationStart = performance.now();
    await this.coordinateSwarmTask(agents);
    const coordinationTime = performance.now() - coordinationStart;

    // Measure task decomposition
    const decompositionStart = performance.now();
    const tasks = await this.decomposeComplexTask();
