3 of 9 scanners reported clean
Some scanners were skipped, did not run, or reported a non-clean status. Review each row below.
Measure, analyze, optimize - in that order.
Execute these for automated profiling:
| Script | Purpose | Usage |
|--------|---------|-------|
| scripts/lighthouse_audit.py | Lighthouse performance audit | python scripts/lighthouse_audit.py https://example.com |
| Metric | Good | Poor | Measures | |--------|------|------|----------| | LCP | < 2.5s | > 4.0s | Loading | | INP | < 200ms | > 500ms | Interactivity | | CLS | < 0.1 | > 0.25 | Stability |
| Stage | Tool | |-------|------| | Development | Local Lighthouse | | CI/CD | Lighthouse CI | | Production | RUM (Real User Monitoring) |
1. BASELINE → Measure current state
2. IDENTIFY → Find the bottleneck
3. FIX → Make targeted change
4. VALIDATE → Confirm improvement
| Problem | Tool | |---------|------| | Page load | Lighthouse | | Bundle size | Bundle analyzer | | Runtime | DevTools Performance | | Memory | DevTools Memory | | Network | DevTools Network |
| Issue | Indicator | |-------|-----------| | Large dependencies | Top of bundle | | Duplicate code | Multiple chunks | | Unused code | Low coverage | | Missing splits | Single large chunk |
| Finding | Action | |---------|--------| | Big library | Import specific modules | | Duplicate deps | Dedupe, update versions | | Route in main | Code split | | Unused exports | Tree shake |
| Pattern | Meaning | |---------|---------| | Long tasks (>50ms) | UI blocking | | Many small tasks | Possible batching opportunity | | Layout/paint | Rendering bottleneck | | Script | JavaScript execution |
| Pattern | Meaning | |---------|---------| | Growing heap | Possible leak | | Large retained | Check references | | Detached DOM | Not cleaned up |
| Symptom | Likely Cause | |---------|--------------| | Slow initial load | Large JS, render blocking | | Slow interactions | Heavy event handlers | | Jank during scroll | Layout thrashing | | Growing memory | Leaks, retained refs |
| Priority | Action | Impact | |----------|--------|--------| | 1 | Enable compression | High | | 2 | Lazy load images | High | | 3 | Code split routes | High | | 4 | Cache static assets | Medium | | 5 | Optimize images | Medium |
| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do | |----------|-------| | Guess at problems | Profile first | | Micro-optimize | Fix biggest issue | | Optimize early | Optimize when needed | | Ignore real users | Use RUM data |
Remember: The fastest code is code that doesn't run. Remove before optimizing.

No-code automation democratizes workflow building. Zapier and Make (formerly Integromat) let non-developers automate business processes without writing code. But no-code doesn't mean no-complexity - these platforms have their own patterns, pitfalls, and breaking points. This skill covers when to use which platform, how to build reliable automations, and when to graduate to code-based solutions. Key insight: Zapier optimizes for simplicity and integrations (7000+ apps), Make optimizes for power

This skill should be used when the user asks to "test for XSS vulnerabilities", "perform cross-site scripting attacks", "identify HTML injection flaws", "exploit client-side injection vulnerabilities", "steal cookies via XSS", or "bypass content security policies". It provides comprehensive techniques for detecting, exploiting, and understanding XSS and HTML injection attack vectors in web applications.

Comprehensive spreadsheet creation, editing, and analysis with support for formulas, formatting, data analysis, and visualization. When Claude needs to work with spreadsheets (.xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, .tsv, etc) for: (1) Creating new spreadsheets with formulas and formatting, (2) Reading or analyzing data, (3) Modify existing spreadsheets while preserving formulas, (4) Data analysis and visualization in spreadsheets, or (5) Recalculating formulas
