Astro-specific performance optimizations for 95+ Lighthouse scores. Covers critical CSS inlining, compression, font loading, and LCP optimization. Use when optimizing Astro site performance, improving Astro Lighthouse scores, or configuring astro-critters. Do NOT use for non-Astro sites (use perf-web-optimization or core-web-vitals) or running Lighthouse audits (use perf-lighthouse).

Astro Performance Playbook
Astro-specific optimizations for 95+ Lighthouse scores.
Quick Setup
npm install astro-critters @playform/compress
// astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'
import critters from 'astro-critters'
import compress from '@playform/compress'
export default defineConfig({
integrations: [
critters(),
compress({
CSS: true,
HTML: true,
JavaScript: true,
Image: false,
SVG: false,
}),
],
})
Integrations
astro-critters
Automatically extracts and inlines critical CSS. No configuration needed.
What it does:
- Scans rendered HTML for above-the-fold elements
- Inlines only the CSS those elements need
- Lazy-loads the rest
Build output shows what it inlined:
Inlined 40.70 kB (80% of original 50.50 kB) of _astro/index.xxx.css.
@playform/compress
Minifies HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in the final build.
Options:
compress({
CSS: true, // Minify CSS
HTML: true, // Minify HTML
JavaScript: true, // Minify JS
Image: false, // Skip if using external image optimization
SVG: false, // Skip if SVGs are already optimized
})
Layout Pattern
Structure your Layout.astro for performance:
---
import '../styles/global.css'
---
<!doctype html>
<html lang="pt-BR">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<!-- Font fallback (prevents FOIT) -->
<style>
@font-face {
font-family: 'Inter';
font-display: swap;
src: local('Inter');
}
</style>
<!-- Non-blocking Google Fonts -->
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com">
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin>
<link
rel="stylesheet"
href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@400;600;700&display=swap"
media="print"
onload="this.media='all'"
/>
<noscript>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@400;600;700&display=swap">
</noscript>
<!-- Preload LCP images -->
<link rel="preload" as="image" href="/hero.png" fetchpriority="high">
<title>{title}</title>
<!-- Defer third-party scripts -->
<script>
let loaded = false;
function loadAnalytics() {
if (loaded) return;
loaded = true;
// Load GTM, analytics, etc.
}
['scroll', 'click', 'touchstart'].forEach(e => {
document.addEventListener(e, loadAnalytics, { once: true, passive: true });
});
setTimeout(loadAnalytics, 5000);
</script>
</head>
<body>

Reviews a GitHub pull request and posts inline comments plus one consolidated summary, adapting to any codebase by discovering the project's own test runner, requirement specs, and architecture conventions before running six specialized review agents in parallel. Stack-agnostic across language and framework; targets GitHub PRs via the gh CLI. Use when the user says "review PR 128", "review this PR", "code review this PR", or "check this pull request". Do NOT use for creating PRs or responding to review comments (use gh-address-comments), or debugging failing CI checks (use gh-fix-ci).

Opinionated Rails conventions: rich models, concerns, CRUD-everything, state-as-records, minimal dependencies, Minitest with fixtures. Load this skill BEFORE any code-level thinking, not only before editing a file. It is required the moment a task touches Rails code in ANY way: designing or even just discussing a data model, schema, migration, entity, association, field, validation, class, or method name; writing, planning, reviewing, analyzing, testing, debugging, or refactoring; or proposing any model, table, column, route, or code snippet inline in chat. If you are about to name a model or sketch a column you are already in scope, even in an exploratory back-and-forth where no file is written yet. Do not let a "we're just discussing" framing defer it. Do NOT use for non-Rails backends, NestJS, or general architecture (use nestjs-modular-monolith or coding-guidelines).

testing
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Feature planning and implementation with 4 adaptive phases — Specify, Design, Tasks, Execute. Auto-sizes depth by complexity. Creates atomic tasks with verification criteria, atomic git commits, and requirement traceability. Features an independent Verifier (author != verifier, evidence-or-zero), persistent decision log (STATE.md), and test-coverage-matrix-driven tests, plus a self-improving lessons layer that turns verification failures into reusable project-local guidance. Stack-agnostic. Use when (1) Planning features (requirements, design, task breakdown), (2) Implementing with verification and atomic commits, (3) Validating or verifying an implementation against a spec. Triggers on "specify feature", "discuss feature", "design", "tasks", "implement", "validate", "verify work", "UAT", "record decision", "pause work", "resume work". Do NOT use for architecture decomposition analysis (use architecture skills) or technical design docs (use create-technical-design-doc).
