Windsurf Performance Profiling
Overview
This skill enables AI-assisted performance profiling within Windsurf. Cascade analyzes profiling data to identify bottlenecks, suggest optimizations, and predict impact of changes. It integrates with language-specific profilers and helps prioritize optimization efforts based on actual performance data rather than assumptions.
Prerequisites
- Windsurf IDE with Cascade enabled
- Profiling tools installed (Chrome DevTools, node --prof, py-spy, etc.)
- Application with performance concerns
- Baseline metrics established
- Understanding of performance targets
Instructions
- Establish Baseline
- Collect Profile Data
- Analyze with Cascade
- Implement Optimizations
- Document and Monitor
See {baseDir}/references/implementation.md for detailed implementation guide.
Output
- Profiling data and analysis
- Bottleneck identification reports
- Optimization recommendations
- Before/after comparison metrics
Error Handling
See {baseDir}/references/errors.md for comprehensive error handling.
Examples
See {baseDir}/references/examples.md for detailed examples.
