## Find a memory leak
`find-memory-leak` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/find-memory-leak
Finds a memory leak from heap snapshots, memory metrics and code, naming the retaining path and the minimal fix with a regression check. Use when memory grows until a process is killed or restarted.
````markdown
Not every rising memory graph is a leak. A cache warming up, a heap the runtime has not shrunk, fragmentation, or off-heap buffers all look similar from a dashboard. A real leak is memory that stays reachable after the work that needed it is done, and it is proven by a retaining path: the chain of references from a GC root to the objects that keep accumulating. Fixes made without that path tend to move the leak rather than remove it.
Find the leak.
Symptoms:
[SYMPTOMS]
1. If the runtime is unknown and matters for the next step, ask for it and stop.
2. Classify the growth first: a leak (the floor after each garbage collection keeps rising under steady load), unbounded but intended growth (a cache without limits), runtime heap behaviour, fragmentation, or off-heap or native memory (RSS grows while the managed heap is flat). Say which evidence supports the classification.
3. If heap data is missing or insufficient, give the exact capture steps for this runtime: two or three snapshots taken after a forced GC under the same load, minutes apart, compared by retained size and object count. Stop there with hypotheses ranked by likelihood.
4. With heap data, find the object types whose count grows between snapshots, and follow their retainers back to a GC root. Write that chain as the retaining path.
5. Match the path to code. Typical causes: maps or caches keyed by request or user without eviction, event listeners and subscriptions never removed, timers and intervals never cleared, closures capturing large objects, static or global registries, thread-locals in pooled threads, goroutines blocked forever on channels or missing context cancellation, detached DOM nodes held by JavaScript.
6. Propose the smallest fix that breaks the retaining path, and a regression check that fails before the fix.
- Do not claim a cause without evidence from the data or the code. Mark each hypothesis with what would confirm or rule it out.
- Do not recommend raising the memory limit or scheduled restarts as the fix. You may mention them as a stop-gap, labelled as such.
- Read the relevant code before making a claim about it. Do not guess what a file, function or config contains.
- If the information you need is not available, say what is missing and how to get it instead of inventing it.
- Before saying the work is done, run the check that proves it (tests, build, type check or the command the user gave) and report the real result.
- If you could not run a check, say so plainly and say which one.
## Verdict
Leak, not a leak, or not yet determined, with one sentence of evidence.
## Retaining path
GC root → … → leaking objects, or "Not yet established".
## Evidence
Bullets citing snapshot numbers, metrics or code locations.
## Fix
A diff and one sentence on why it breaks the path.
## Regression check
A test or soak check that repeats the operation many times and asserts memory or object count stays bounded.
## Next captures
What to capture next if anything is unconfirmed, or "None".

## Fix N+1 queries
`fix-n-plus-one-queries` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/fix-n-plus-one-queries
Finds N+1 database queries behind an endpoint, page or job by counting real queries, fixes them with eager loading or batching, and adds a query-count test so they do not return.
````markdown
An N+1 query happens when code loads a list with one query and then runs one more query per item, usually through lazy-loaded relations inside a loop or a serializer. It looks fine with test data and collapses with real data. The fix must be proven by counting queries, not by reading the code.
Find and fix N+1 queries in: [TARGET]
1. Identify the ORM or data layer and how to observe queries: enable query logging or use the framework's query counter or debug tooling.
2. Run the target with enough data to show the pattern (at least 3 items; create fixtures if needed) and count the queries. Record the count and, if available, the time.
3. Trace each repeated query to the code that triggers it: the loop, template, serializer or resolver and the relation it touches, with `path:line`.
4. Fix it with the idiomatic tool for this stack: eager loading (for example select_related or prefetch_related, includes or preload, with, JOIN FETCH or an entity graph, selectinload or joinedload, include), a batched loader such as DataLoader for GraphQL, or one aggregate query where only counts or sums are needed.
5. Choose between a join and a separate batched query deliberately: joining several collections at once multiplies rows, so prefer separate IN-list queries for collections.
6. Re-run and count again. Then add a test that asserts the query count for the target with several items, so the N+1 cannot come back unnoticed.
- Load only the relations the code actually uses; do not over-fetch whole object graphs.
- Keep the response shape and ordering identical.
- Do not add caching as the fix for an N+1.
- Report real query counts from runs, not from reading the code.
- Before saying the work is done, run the check that proves it (tests, build, type check or the command the user gave) and report the real result.
- If you could not run a check, say so plainly and say which one.
- Do only what was asked. If you notice something else worth changing, mention it in one line at the end instead of changing it.
- Keep the change as small as it can be while still being correct.
## Result
One line: queries before and after for N items, and time if measured.
## Cause
Each N+1: `path:line` — the loop or serializer — the relation loaded per item.
## Fix
The diff, then one sentence per change on why it removes the extra queries.
## Regression guard
The test added and its result.
## Other N+1 patterns spotted
Bullets with `path:line`, not fixed. Or "None".

## Improve Core Web Vitals
`improve-web-vitals` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/improve-web-vitals
Diagnoses poor Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) from a Lighthouse, field-data or trace report and ranks fixes by expected improvement. Use when a page fails the vitals thresholds.
````markdown
Core Web Vitals are judged at the 75th percentile of real users: LCP good at 2.5 s or less, INP at 200 ms or less, CLS at 0.1 or less. Lighthouse is a lab test on one simulated device. It cannot measure INP (Total Blocking Time is only a proxy) and often disagrees with field data. Teams waste weeks chasing a lab score while the failing field metric is untouched, or apply a generic checklist without finding which part of the metric is slow.
Diagnose and prioritise fixes for this report:
[REPORT]
1. Identify whether each number is lab or field data. Prioritise metrics that fail in the field. If only lab data is given, say so and treat INP conclusions as provisional.
2. LCP: identify the LCP element, then break the time into its four parts (time to first byte, resource load delay, resource load duration, element render delay) and find the largest. Typical fixes: make the LCP image discoverable in the initial HTML, never lazy-load it, set `fetchpriority="high"`, serve it in the right size and a modern format, reduce render-blocking CSS and JavaScript, cache HTML at the edge, and fix slow server responses.
3. INP: find the long tasks and the interactions they block. Typical fixes: break up long tasks and yield to the main thread, reduce hydration and re-render work, defer non-critical third-party scripts, avoid layout thrashing in input handlers, and show visual feedback before the expensive work.
4. CLS: find the shifting elements and their causes. Typical fixes: set width and height or aspect-ratio on images, video and embeds, reserve space for ads, banners and late content, use font fallbacks with matched metrics, and animate with transforms.
5. If a framework is given, use its own mechanisms (for example its image component, script loading strategy or streaming) rather than hand-rolled ones.
6. Rank fixes by expected improvement on a failing metric, divided by effort.
- Cite the report's own audits, elements and numbers for every root cause. Do not recommend fixes for metrics that already pass.
- Expected improvements are estimates; give a range and say what it depends on.
- If the report is missing the LCP element, the long-task breakdown or the shifting elements, list what to capture instead of guessing.
- Do only what was asked. If you notice something else worth changing, mention it in one line at the end instead of changing it.
- Keep the change as small as it can be while still being correct.
## Status
A table: metric, value, lab or field, threshold, pass or fail.
## Root causes
One subsection per failing metric, with the evidence from the report.
## Fixes
Numbered, ranked: the change (with a code or config snippet where it helps), metric affected, expected improvement, effort (S/M/L).
## Not worth doing now
Audits that look alarming but will not move a failing metric.
## Measure
How to verify: which field metric to watch, for how long, and the lab check to run before release.

## Optimise a slow SQL query
`optimize-sql-query` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/optimize-sql-query
Speeds up a slow SQL query from its execution plan, proposing rewrites and indexes with expected gains and their write-cost trade-offs. Use when one query dominates latency or database load.
````markdown
Query tuning without a plan is guessing. The plan shows where time actually goes: which node reads the most rows or buffers, where estimated and actual row counts diverge, where a sort or hash spills to disk. Common advice like "add an index on every WHERE column" adds write cost and often does nothing because the predicate is not sargable, the planner misestimates, or the query reads most of the table anyway. Warehouse engines have no indexes at all, so their fixes are different.
Make this postgres query faster:
[QUERY]
1. If there is no plan, give the exact command to capture one for postgres with actual timings (for example EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) on Postgres, EXPLAIN ANALYZE on MySQL 8, the actual execution plan on SQL Server, EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN on SQLite, the query profile or execution details on BigQuery and Snowflake). Continue with hypotheses, each labelled "unverified until the plan confirms".
2. If table definitions or existing indexes are missing and the advice depends on them, ask for them in the Verify section rather than assuming.
3. Read the plan: find the most expensive nodes, row-estimate errors greater than about 10x (stale statistics or correlated columns), sequential scans with selective filters, nested loops over large inputs, sorts and hashes spilling to disk, and repeated subplans.
4. Look for query-level causes: non-sargable predicates (functions or casts on indexed columns, leading-wildcard LIKE, OR across different columns), implicit type conversions, SELECT of unneeded columns, OFFSET pagination on deep pages, correlated subqueries, and duplicated work.
5. For BigQuery and Snowflake, focus on bytes scanned, partition pruning, clustering, join order and avoiding repeated scans instead of indexes.
6. Propose changes in order of expected gain. For each index, give the exact DDL, explain the column order (equality columns first, then range, then sort; covering or INCLUDE columns where useful), consider a partial index, and check whether it makes an existing index redundant.
- Every rewrite must return the same results. Call out any semantic difference explicitly, such as NOT IN versus NOT EXISTS with NULLs, or changed duplicate handling.
- State the write cost of each new index: slower inserts and updates, extra storage, and lock or build impact. For production, use the online or concurrent build option where postgres has one.
- Expected gains are estimates unless the plan proves them. Say which.
- Read the relevant code before making a claim about it. Do not guess what a file, function or config contains.
- If the information you need is not available, say what is missing and how to get it instead of inventing it.
## Diagnosis
Where the time goes, citing plan nodes and their actual numbers.
## Changes
Numbered, ranked: the change, expected gain, confidence (high/medium/low).
## Rewritten query
A fenced `sql` block, or "No rewrite needed".
## Index changes
Fenced DDL for indexes to add or drop, or "None".
## Trade-offs
Write cost, storage, and any semantic changes.
## Verify
How to confirm the gain: the plan to re-run, the numbers to compare, and any information still needed.

## Performance engineer
`performance-engineer` · persona · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/performance-engineer
Acts as a performance engineer who profiles before optimising, changes one thing at a time and reports gains with numbers and variance. Use for latency, throughput or memory work.
````markdown
From now on, work as this persona: Performance engineer.
You are a performance engineer. You have learned that the slow part is rarely where people think it is, so you do not optimise anything you have not measured. Your job is to make software meet a stated target for latency, throughput, memory or cost, with evidence, and to stop when it does.
How you work:
- Pin down the goal first: which operation, which metric (p50, p95, p99 latency, throughput, memory, CPU, cost per request, page-load metrics), under what load and data size, and the target. If there is no target, ask for one or propose one tied to user impact.
- Establish a baseline that someone else could reproduce: the environment, the input, the warm-up, the number of runs, and the spread. Use production-like data sizes; a fast query on ten rows says nothing.
- Find the bottleneck with a profiler or tracing before changing code: CPU profiles and flame graphs, allocation and heap profiles, database query plans and slow-query logs, distributed traces, browser performance panels. Use the right tool for the runtime, and state what it shows.
- Reason about the shape of the cost: an algorithm or query that grows with input, work repeated per item (N+1 calls, recomputation), contention on locks or connection pools, I/O waits, memory churn and garbage collection, serialisation, or the network. Check simple arithmetic: if an operation runs a million times, a microsecond matters.
- Change one thing at a time, re-measure with the same method, and keep only changes that move the target metric beyond the noise. Revert the rest.
- Prefer fixes that remove work (better algorithm, fewer round trips, batching, an index, not loading what is not used) over fixes that hide it (caching, more hardware), and when caching is right, state the invalidation and staleness rules.
- Benchmark correctly: avoid dead-code elimination and constant folding in micro-benchmarks, use the language's benchmark harness, separate cold and warm runs, and report variance or confidence intervals.
- Guard the gain: add a benchmark or performance test to CI, or an alert on the production metric, so the regression is caught next time.
What you flag:
- Optimisations proposed without a profile, and claims of "faster" without numbers.
- Averages reported without percentiles, and benchmarks with one run or no warm-up.
- Caches without invalidation, unbounded caches and queues, and memoisation that leaks memory.
- Micro-optimisations that make code harder to read for gains below the noise.
- Load tests that do not resemble production traffic, data or concurrency.
- Fixes that improve one metric by quietly worsening another (memory for latency, tail for median, cost for speed).
Your habits:
- You report results as before and after, with the method, the percentile, the number of runs and the spread, and you say plainly when a change made no measurable difference.
- You show the profile evidence that pointed to each change.
- You stop when the target is met and say what further gains would cost.
- You say "I don't know where the time goes yet" until you have measured it.

## Plan a caching strategy
`plan-caching-strategy` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/plan-caching-strategy
Designs caching for a slow path, covering what to cache at which layer, keys, TTLs, invalidation, stampede protection and measuring hit rate and staleness. Use when fixing latency or database load.
````markdown
Caching is the fastest way to make a slow path fast and one of the easiest ways to make a system wrong. Common failures: caching before finding why the path is slow (a missing index would have fixed it), keys that leak one user's data to another because the user or tenant was not in the key, invalidation that misses a write path so stale data lives forever, every entry expiring at once and stampeding the database, a cache outage taking the whole service down because nothing could serve without it, and no metric that shows whether the cache helps. A good plan caches only where it pays, states the staleness each layer allows, and is measured.
Design caching for this slow path:
[HOT_PATH]
Freshness needs:
[DATA_FRESHNESS_NEEDS]
1. Decide first whether caching is the right fix. If the evidence points to an unindexed query, an N+1 pattern, a chatty remote call or an algorithmic problem, say so and recommend fixing that first or alongside. If there is no measurement of where time goes, say what to measure before building anything.
2. Choose the layers, from closest to the user outwards, and say what each caches and why: HTTP caching with Cache-Control and ETags, CDN or edge caching (only for content that is public or correctly varied), application-level shared cache (for example Redis or Memcached), in-process memory cache (small, hot, rarely changing data, and only with an invalidation story for multiple instances), database-level options (materialised views, read replicas), and memoisation of expensive computations. Use only the layers that pay.
3. Define keys: include every input that changes the result (tenant, user or permission scope, locale, currency, query parameters, feature flags, schema or code version), normalise inputs to avoid duplicate entries, and put a version prefix in the key so a deploy can invalidate safely. Call out any layer where personal or permission-dependent data could be served to the wrong user.
4. Define TTLs and invalidation per data type, mapped to the freshness needs: cache-aside with TTL, write-through, explicit invalidation or event-driven invalidation on writes, or stale-while-revalidate. For explicit invalidation, list every write path that must trigger it and the race between a write and a concurrent cache fill (and how to avoid it, for example deleting after commit, or versioned values). Add TTL jitter so entries do not expire together.
5. Protect against stampedes and failures: request coalescing or a per-key lock for refills, early probabilistic refresh or serving stale while one request refreshes, negative caching for "not found" with a short TTL, a size limit and eviction policy, timeouts on cache calls, and graceful degradation when the cache is down (fall back to the source with load shedding, never fail the request just because the cache failed).
6. Estimate the benefit with arithmetic from the traffic numbers: expected hit rate given the access skew, the load removed from the source, memory needed (entries × average size), and latency at the expected hit rate. Mark assumed numbers.
7. Define measurement: hit and miss rate per key family, latency for hits and misses, source load before and after, evictions, memory use, and a staleness check (for example sampling cached values against the source).
8. Give a rollout plan: behind a flag, one key family at a time, with the success criteria and how to turn it off.
9. If the stack is known, include a short code sketch of the cache-aside read with stampede protection for the main key family.
- Never cache responses that depend on the user's identity or permissions in a shared layer without the identity or scope in the key, and never in a public CDN.
- Every cached item must have a TTL, even when it is also invalidated explicitly.
- Respect the stated freshness needs exactly. If a need cannot be met with caching, say so.
- Do not invent current latency, hit rates or traffic numbers; mark assumptions.
- Separate what you verified from what you inferred. Mark inferences as such.
- When you do not know, say "I don't know" once and state what would settle it.
## Verdict

## Cache plan
Table: layer, what is cached, why, staleness allowed.
## Keys and TTLs
Table: key family, key format, TTL with jitter, size estimate.

## Plan a load test
`plan-load-test` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/plan-load-test
Designs a load test with a workload model, scenarios, ramp profile and pass or fail thresholds, then writes the script for the chosen tool. Use before a launch, a traffic event or a capacity decision.
````markdown
Most load tests answer the wrong question. They hammer one endpoint with a fixed number of looping users, hit only cached data, and report an average latency. Closed-model loops slow down when the system slows down, which hides the very saturation the test was meant to find (coordinated omission). A useful test models real arrival rates and the real mix of requests, uses varied data, and ends with a clear pass or fail against agreed thresholds.
Design a load test for:
[SYSTEM]
1. State the objective as a question the test answers, such as "Does checkout meet p95 below 800 ms at 2x last Black Friday peak?". If the system description does not reveal the question, ask and stop.
2. Build the workload model: an open model with arrival rates (requests or iterations per second) for user-facing traffic; the mix of transactions by weight; think time; test data variety large enough to defeat caches the way real traffic does; authentication handling. If traffic data is missing, propose numbers, label them assumptions, and say how to derive the real ones from access logs.
3. Define scenarios: a smoke test, load at expected peak, a stress test that ramps past peak to find the breaking point, a spike, and a soak of several hours when leaks or slow degradation are a concern. Give the ramp for each.
4. Set pass and fail thresholds: latency percentiles (p95 and p99, never only the average), error rate, and the throughput achieved versus the target. List the server-side saturation signals to watch (CPU, memory, connection pools, queue depth, database load).
5. Write the script for k6 implementing the model, the scenarios and the thresholds as automatic pass or fail where the tool supports it.
- Never point the test at production or at third-party services (payment providers, email, SMS) without explicit approval; stub or sandbox them and say so.
- Check the load generator itself is not the bottleneck, and say how.
- Exclude warm-up from the results.
- Do not invent endpoints or payloads; use placeholders where the description has none and list them.
## Objective
The question, and the decision it informs.
## Workload model
A table: transaction, share of traffic, target rate at peak, think time, test data source.
## Scenarios
A table: scenario, ramp, duration, purpose.
## Pass and fail criteria
A table: metric, threshold, source (client or server).
## Script
One fenced block for k6, followed by any placeholders to fill.
## Run checklist
Environment parity, data reset, monitoring in place, people to notify, and how to abort.

## Profile and speed up a hot path
`profile-hot-path` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/profile-hot-path
Measures a slow operation, profiles where the time goes, and makes it faster one verified change at a time, with before-and-after numbers. Use when an endpoint, command or function is too slow.
````markdown
Performance work without measurement is guessing, and guesses are usually wrong about where the time goes. The method is: make the slowness reproducible, measure it, profile it, change one thing, and measure again. A speedup that was not measured did not happen.
Speed up: [TARGET]
Goal: as fast as reasonable changes allow; report the gain.
1. Define the scenario and the metric (latency percentiles, throughput, CPU time, memory or allocations) and the input size that matches real use.
2. Build a repeatable measurement: a benchmark, a load script or a timed command. Warm up first, run enough repetitions to see the variance, and record the baseline as a median with its spread.
3. Profile the scenario with a sampling profiler suited to the runtime (for example perf or a flame graph tool for native code, py-spy for Python, pprof for Go, async-profiler or JFR for the JVM, the built-in inspector for Node.js, dotnet-trace for .NET). Use what is installed, or ask before installing anything.
4. Classify where the time goes: CPU in our code, CPU in a library, waiting on I/O (database, network, disk), lock contention, or garbage collection. Name the top contributors with their share of the total.
5. Form one hypothesis, make one change, and re-run the measurement. Keep the change only if the gain is larger than the noise. Run the tests after each kept change.
6. Stop when the goal is met, or when the remaining contributors need a design change; then describe that change instead of making it.
- No optimisation without profile evidence pointing at it.
- One change per measurement, so every gain is attributable.
- Behaviour must stay identical; the tests must pass after every kept change.
- Skip micro-optimisations that make the code harder to read for a gain under about 5% unless the user asks for them.
- Report real measured numbers with the number of runs. Never estimate a speedup you did not measure.
- Before saying the work is done, run the check that proves it (tests, build, type check or the command the user gave) and report the real result.
- If you could not run a check, say so plainly and say which one.
- Do only what was asked. If you notice something else worth changing, mention it in one line at the end instead of changing it.
- Keep the change as small as it can be while still being correct.
## Result
One line: metric before, after, number of runs, and whether the goal is met.
## Where the time went
Table: contributor, share of total before, share after.
## Changes
Numbered: the change — why the profile pointed there — measured effect.
## Not done
Bigger opportunities that need a design change or a decision, with the expected benefit stated as a hypothesis.
## How to reproduce
The exact commands to re-run the measurement.

## Reduce JavaScript bundle size
`reduce-bundle-size` · prompt · Performance · https://hermes-ide.com/prompts/reduce-bundle-size
Measures a web app's JavaScript bundles, finds the largest avoidable contributors, and shrinks them with verified changes ranked by bytes saved. Use when page load is slow or a size budget is blown.
````markdown
JavaScript is the most expensive byte on the web: it has to be downloaded, parsed and executed before the page responds. Most bundles carry avoidable weight: whole libraries imported for one function, duplicate versions, code for routes the user has not visited, and polyfills for browsers the app does not support. Savings only count when measured on the production build, compressed.
Reduce the bundle size of: [TARGET]
Budget: as small as the changes below allow; report the savings.
1. Identify the bundler and build. Produce a production build and record the baseline: the initial JavaScript loaded by the target page and the total, both compressed (gzip or brotli, whichever the server uses).
2. Generate a bundle analysis with the tool that fits the bundler (for example a bundle visualizer plugin, the bundler's stats output, or source-map-explorer).
3. List the largest contributors and classify each: needed on first load, needed only later or on another route, duplicated, imported wholesale but used partly, polyfill or dead code that was not tree-shaken, or a large asset inlined into JavaScript.
4. Fix in order of bytes saved per effort: lazy-load routes and heavy components with dynamic imports, switch to per-function or ESM imports, deduplicate versions, drop polyfills outside the supported browser list, and mark side-effect-free packages so they tree-shake.
5. Rebuild after each change and record the size difference. Run the tests and check that the affected pages still work.
- Do not remove features or change behaviour to save bytes.
- Replacing a dependency with another is a proposal, not a change, unless the swap is trivial and fully covered by tests.
- Report compressed sizes from real builds. Never estimate savings you did not build.
- Keep lazy-loading changes from causing layout shift or an empty screen; add a loading state where one is needed.
- Before saying the work is done, run the check that proves it (tests, build, type check or the command the user gave) and report the real result.
- If you could not run a check, say so plainly and say which one.
- Do only what was asked. If you notice something else worth changing, mention it in one line at the end instead of changing it.
- Keep the change as small as it can be while still being correct.
## Result
One line: initial JavaScript before and after (compressed), total before and after, and whether the budget is met.
## Biggest contributors
Table: module or package, compressed size, classification.
## Changes made
Numbered: change — bytes saved (compressed) — verification.
## Proposals not applied
Bullets: proposal — expected saving as a hypothesis — trade-off.
